How to Turn on and off Design mode in Microsoft Excel 2007

[Kaesav]

I need a bit help to enable and disable design mode in Microsoft Excel 2007. I am not finding a exact and easy way to do that. If there are automated settings also then that will be of great help.

You'll need to first enable the Developer Tab on the Ribbon. Then click on Office Button (big, round button located at top-left) > Click the Excel Options button > On the Popular Tab, check "Show Developer tab in the Ribbon > Click OK. You'll now be able to select the Developer Tab, and toggle Design Mode on/off from there. To get into the design view you hide the "Control Toolbox" toolbar, and choose a design mode.

First remove workbook protection and sheet protection. That you can use the menu bar, menu "Tools-protection" solve (if it is visible). If the menu bar is not visible, please change via Alt + F11 in the VBA Editor (press ENTER to confirm each) there in the direct area (Ctrl + G) and then enter the following commands:

• Application.Commandbars.Activemenubar.enabled = true
• Application.Commandbars.Activemenubar.visible = true

Changer then back to EXCEL. via View > Toolbars > Customize or right click in the menu bar and choose Customize. On the toolbar Control Toolbox one. There you can activate the design mode, with which you can click on the icon (right-click), without the stored hyperlinks or VBA code to run. Now you can also change the icons, or rename the VBA-/Makro-Code view and modify. From the Panel go on Tools-Options > View sheet tabs one to be able to switch to other worksheets. Possibly the other sheets are hidden, you can it via the Format - Sheet" unhide, or by using VBA you the property Visible" of the leaves to "-1 - xlSheetVisible.
