About
Hello!
My full website, located at www.excelguru.ca, is very much a technical site devoted mostly to Excel developers. I take great pride in publishing well thought out and well tested articles there. I’m fairly happy with the results so far, but wanted another avenue to post things in. While I love the site, I have personal standards which prevent me:
- Posting a quick article without extensive testing
- Posting my personal opinions on non-technical issue
- Allowing comments on existing articles (I appreciate comments, and reply to all that are emailed to me. I just prefer not to have them on the static pages.)
This blog is going to let me solve some of those issues. I plan on posting here more frequently than I can possibly do so while generating good technical articles. While some of my blog posts may be technical, some will not. I plan on posting some of the funny things I see in life, some of the activities I’m involved in, some of the serious issues I see, and maybe even vent a little. In short, you get to see what make me… me.
In all cases, I welcome people to comment on what I say, for good or for ill. Just don’t be rude, and we’ll all get along fine.
Thanks for visiting!

A while ago I purchased Office 2007. However I disliked the way the menu/toolbar customizations of the former version were converted into the Add-ins tab. So I very soon decided to rethink them and write the whole thing over from scratch.
Your blog was a very big help to do that. As I progressed with my work I realized that there was very little documentation on the Internet on this subject. So I decided to write a little tutorial myself and published it on my website today.
Of course I put a link to your blog in my ‘Some usesful links’ section (http://wv-be.com/Ribbon.asp). I would appreciate it if you could do the same for my page.
Thanks.

Hi Willy,
Thanks for the feedback, and I’m glad the blog was useful. Interestingly, I actually have a blog post in progress on the shared namespace aspect for multiple workbooks.
I’ll add your site to my RibbonX TOC page.
