I think that's a good option if it comes to that.  But you know of no way to
turn it off programmatically, then? 

Seems like using the object models you could do anything in code that you
could do manually.  Maybe this is an exception?  Oversight?

Rocky

You could replace it with your own application ribbon which could be as bare
as possible?

Just an idea

Susan:

Neither method ended up recording anything in the macro.

a.. Click the Down arrow to the right of the Quick Access toolbar button and
select Minimize the Ribbon.
a.. Press Ctrl-F1. (Press Ctrl-F1 to make it appear again.)

Rocky -- found two more ways to hide the ribbon manually -- try recording
these actions in Excel 2007 to see what you get. If you don't have Excel
2007 installed, let me know and I'll try.
