Hi Susan,

For Excel 2007 you can use the follow code (from Ron DeBruin)

'======================================================================
Sub HideRibbon()
    Application.ExecuteExcel4Macro "SHOW.TOOLBAR(""Ribbon"",False)"
End Sub


Sub ShowRibbon()
    Application.ExecuteExcel4Macro "SHOW.TOOLBAR(""Ribbon"",True)"
End Sub
'========================================================================

For other tweaking tips in Excel have a look here

Cheers
Darryl.

I can't recall ever using DoCmd in anything but Access -- and as part of the 
Access object model, it would makes sense that it isn't available to other 
applications, but thought I'd try.

I've spent a little time in both Excel and Word's VBA Help and can't find 
anything helpful on hiding the ribbon -- even the Object Browser turns up 
nothing. Well, it turns up stuff, just nothing I could use.

Surely you can hide the ribbon programmatically in Word and Excel?
