Default Importing Excel 2003 toolbars to Excel 2007

I am using Excel 2003 very intensely and have defined several toolbars with
many buttons that activate VBA routines that I have programmed through the
last 15 (?) years.

Now I am so unlucky that 'higher powers' soon will force me to migrate to
Excel 2007. It means a lot to me to be able to export my VBA and
toolbars/buttons to Excel 2007. Probably VBA modules are easily imported to
Excel 2007, but I have been told that the concept of toolbars does not at
all exist in Excel 2007.

Is this true, and if it is what can I then do?

Hi Helge

If you not like what you see in the Add-ins tab see
http://www.rondebruin.nl/qat.htm

Or create a nice ribbon

Default Importing Excel 2003 toolbars to Excel 2007

My VBA and toolbar buttons are not used in only one workbook. It is hundreds
of general utilities (small and large) that are used in all workbooks. The
VBA is in "C:\Documents and Settings\hela\Application
Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART\Personal.xls" and the toolbar definition is in
"C:\Documents and Settings\hela\Application
Data\Microsoft\Excel\Excel11.xlb" (I think).

In Excel 2007 I would really like to have access to these utilities by
clicking a button or in some way that is as easy and quick as a button.
