Access to Excel Custom Lists
Excel allows us to modify nearly every part of Excel. One of these parts is
the standard Excel CommandBars, or Toolbars. Sometimes you may have a macro
that you wish to enable users to run by right clicking in any cell and
choosing your macro from the Cell shortcut pop-up menu. The code do do this
is relatively simply and is shown below.
Note how the code first deletes any existing menu option called "My
Macro". This stops the code adding an additional custom menu options and
ensures only one custom menu option is available at any one time. The use of
Temporary:=True ensures this menu option is deleted whenever
Excel closes. Without it, it's possible to have you custom menu option
showing in another Workbook. This is also why we make use of the Workbook_Deactivate
Event. That is, if we activate another Workbook
while this one is open, the custom menu option is deleted.
The macro that is run whenever this custom menu option is clicked is called
"My_Macro". You should change this, and the caption, to suit your
needs.
The code below should be placed in Private Module of the Workbook Object (ThisWorkbook).
To get there quickly, right click on the Excel icon, top left next to File and choose
View Code.
Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
On Error Resume Next
With Application
.CommandBars("Cell").Controls("My Macro").Delete
End With
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeRightClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim cBut As CommandBarButton
On Error Resume Next
With Application
.CommandBars("Cell").Controls("My Macro").Delete
Set cBut = .CommandBars("Cell").Controls.Add(Temporary:=True)
End With
With cBut
.Caption = "My Macro"
.Style = msoButtonCaption
.OnAction = "My_Macro"
End With
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
