>Hi,
>This is only slightly related to VFP in that I'm building some spreadsheets with COM, but my real problem is Excel. We have some add-ins that have toolbars. How/where in the world do I control the docking of these toolbars? At startup, some are free floating and that annoys my users because they have to reposition them every time. Can this be controlled?

Do you have the source of add-ins? If so using the SDK you can modify them to dock their toolbars temselves. Well I know it was just a try - or they could set the recorded macro as a startup macro:)

You can automate them from within VFP, but you need their names. You can record a macro and dock them manually to get necessary code. In general toolbar code looks like:

oExcel.CommandBars(barname/uniqueindex)...

I don't remember full syntax off the top of my head but it'd be something like that.
