Hi,
I have a customer usind Bex Analyzer (Excel) for reporting.
Does anyone know or maybe someone had to do it already if there is a <b>possbility to "grey out" buttons on the Bex Analyzer Toolbar in Excel (e.g. the "tools" button or the "settings" button)?</b>
I would appreciate any information on that very much.
Thanks for your help

Hi Christian,
If you want this function to run when a workbook opens, you would put the code in the code window of "ThisWorkbook". 
Tools >> Macros >> Visual Basic Editor is a good start.
If the Project Explorer window is not visible, then use View >> Project Explorer (or Ctrl+R) to make it visible.
Locate your workbook in the Project Explorer window.  It will be named something like VBAProject(xxxxx) where xxxx = your workbook name.  If the workbook was opened from the BW server, the name in parentheses might be something like xSAPtemp1234.xls.
If you see a "+" to the left of the VBAProject name, then click to expand it.  You should now see at least two folders under the VBAProject name: 
+ Microsoft Excel Objects
+ Modules.
Expand the Excel Objects.  Under the Microsoft Excel Objects heading, you will see icons representing each of the worksheets in your workbook, and an icon that is named ThisWorkbook.  That is where you would want to put the code if you want it to run every time that the workbook is opened.
Select the ThisWorkbook icon, right-click, select View Code.  The code window should open on the right side of your screen.
As an example, to execute the "test3" subroutine when the workbook opens, you would use the code below:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    Call test3
End Sub
The code for test3 subroutine would be added to either a new (Insert >> Module) or existing Module.
