Automatically hiding a button on a toolbar when a template opens.

[Colinhp]

What is the Visual Basic code to hide a specific button on a toolbar when a
new document is loaded from a template?

 

[Default User]

Following routine in ThisDocument classmodule will do the trick, whereby X
is the number/name of the target 'toolbar'

Private Sub Document_New()
CustomizationContext = ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate
CommandBars(X).Visible = False
End Sub
Note:
1) you can affect and confuse the user experience by hiding familiar
toolbars...
2) toolbars are part of the commandbars collection
3) restrict the scope to documents based on this template, using the
CustomizationContext clause
