How To Open Toolbar In Visual Basic Editor For Mac

Active2 years, 10 months ago
  1. The newer computer Windows 10 - with Office 365 2016 (no upgrade) will not open VB editor. All I get is a dark grey macro code page - no menu, no ribbon or the other normal window panes you get with the editor. A blank screen in Visual Basic editor with no tools or menu bars or programming windows available. Because I found no.
  2. Click the “New Button” in the Assign Macro window. The Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications editor window opens and appears on the screen.

The toolbars (menu bar and quick access bar) are missing in the Visual Basic Editor in Excel. What happened? I can't click anywhere to find them to enable again!

I open the Visual Basic Editor (Excel 2011 on Mac) and the 3 icon buttons across the top are all greyed out. Not sure what I need to do to enable those buttons. Any help would be much appreciated!

This sometimes happens if you leave the VBE open and the computer goes to sleep or hibernates. It's difficult to reproduce, but there's a simple fix -

Just close the VBE window and reopen it.I know, this is your default first troubleshooting step, but you forgot it in haste. It's OK, I won't tell anyone.

MS KB829059 talks about Outlook 2003 and 2007, but this applies across the entire Office Suite in 2003 and 2007.
