My colleagues and I use Word 2010 and Sharepoint.
I have written some custom macros with VBA and I have also customized the ribbon to add a tab to access these macros.
What is the best way of sharing these macros and the ribbon with my colleagues? (involving manual effort on the part of my colleagues as little as possible.)
Thank you.

I have been working on an add-in with some short-cuts for PowerPoint 2010.
I am able to make the add-in "tab" so that I can access my macros from PowerPoint after installing the add-in.
However, I cannot add the macros to my Quick Access Toolbar, or otherwise create shortcuts.
This creates a need to use a very extensive key combination to access the add-in shortcuts, eliminating part of the rationale behind them.
Is there any way to make PowerPoint macros that I can then link to the Quick Access Toolbar?
I import bsa file as module. And macro run properly. I need to set up these macros buttons in to Quick Access Toolbar (QAT). I do it manually from standart way as well. But i want to make this automatically with macro (VBA). How these macros assigned to the buttons and buttons set up on the QAT by VBA inside macro?
I searched a lot, and the only way I was able to find was using Office Fluent User Interface.
See this article that walks you through doing it. The example is Excel's QAT, but since all Office Products share the same Type Library, you should be able to adapt it for MS Word 2010.
Is it possible to automatically add a button to Excel Ribbon to run a macro when a user open an Excel file. Problem is I have developed a macro and would like to share it with my group members. Now on my personal computer I could customize the ribbon and assign a given button to my macro but this ribbon customization will only be available for me. So after I send out the workbook to members of my group, they will not see the button that I have assigned for the macro. I could add an ActiveX control but this will be on the sheet itself and not on the ribbon (Excel 2010)
Is there a way to do this, without having each member customize his/her ribbon.
Thanks!
I think that you are talking about VSTO, which is the add-ins framework of MS Office, and normally, you need the VS Studio, not Express, to develop your add-ins application.
And at first, you can go to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb410115%28v=office.12%29.aspx to read the simple guide about the Ribbon button integration, and about other integration way and method, you can read the MSDN directly.
And of course, as a professional VSTO developer, if need, I can help you too. :)
I am in the process of creating a VBA add-in for Excel 2010, and I used the "Custom UI Editor for Microsoft Office" tool to create my own ribbon.
However, I would like to give the user the option to load my add-in without displaying the ribbon, or with different parts of the ribbon visible.
With menus, I know you can completely control them programmatically, but ribbons seem to work differently.
Is there a way in VBA to not load my customUI.xml ribbon tabs on startup?
Is there a way to remove items from (or add items to) these tabs at runtime?
here is a whole slew of help on this subject Awesome Ribbon Help. I think points 2 and 3 are of particular interest to you.
I have a series of macros and toolbars that I developed for Word 2003. Now that my office is upgrading to Word 2007, I need to migrate them. The macros themselves migrate with zero effort, but the toolbars are a different issue. A random subset of the toolbars show up in the "Add-Ins" ribbon tab, but I haven't found a way to control which ones.
Something that may be a complication is that I deploy the macros by placing a template into a user's Word STARTUP folder (C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Word\STARTUP). While I can add macros from normal.dot into the Quick Access Toolbar, I cannot add macros from this startup template. I'd like a better, more structured layout anyway.
So, what's the easiest way to replicate my custom macro toolbars in Word 2007?
The macros and toolbars that I developed for Word 2003 are in a number of .dot files. I simply put these .dot files into my Startup folder. I restarted Word'07 an wallah, these Macro toolbars appeared in the Add-Ins ribbon.
Good Luck
