Answer 1

Hi,

Check out http://www.rondebruin.nl/hidevisible.htm for an excellent walk through of how to do this. The article is for Excel, but it stands true for Project.

Hope this helps,

Thanks for the Reply,

"On this page I show you how you can use the getVisible callback to Hide or Display a Custom Tab, 
Group or Control on the Ribbon that you create with RibbonX. " But it seems that this post talks on the Hiding the Custom Tab not the  BUILT-IN TAB OF THE MSP 2010

Answer 3

On that page there is a link to a worksheet  called Hide-Display-Built-in Tabs.xlsm which should help.

This works with Excel but not with the MSP.

Answer 6

Parth,

Following the items in the above link and coupling this with Project's use of setCustomUI, the following code should hide the View Tab programatically:

 

Private Sub RemoveBackstageTab()

  Dim ribbonXML As String

  ribbonXML = "<customUI xmlns=""http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2009/07/customui"">"
  ribbonXML = ribbonXML + "<ribbon>"
  ribbonXML = ribbonXML + "<tabs>"
  ribbonXML = ribbonXML + "<tab idMso=""TabView"" visible=""false""/>"
  ribbonXML = ribbonXML + "</tabs>"
  ribbonXML = ribbonXML + "</ribbon>"
  ribbonXML = ribbonXML + "</customUI>"

  ActiveProject.SetCustomUI (ribbonXML)

End Sub

Private Sub Project_Open(ByVal pj As Project)
    RemoveBackstageTab
End Sub

 

Hope this helps,
