You can create custom VBA word menus and you can add to existing
menus. On this page we will see how you add a new menu called favorite
to the main Word menu bar.

Here is the code if you want to copy it…

Sub AddCustomMenu()
Dim cbMenuBar As CommandBar
Dim idHelp As Integer
Dim cbcNewMenu As CommandBarControl

Set cbMenuBar = Application.CommandBars("Menu Bar")
idHelp = cbMenuBar.Controls("Help").Index
On Error Resume Next
Application.CommandBars("Menu Bar").Controls("Fa&vorite").Delete
On Error GoTo 0
Set cbcNewMenu = cbMenuBar.Controls.Add _
(msoControlPopup, , , idHelp)
cbcNewMenu.Caption = "Fa&vorite"
With cbcNewMenu.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
.Caption = "Properties"
.OnAction = "ShowProperties"
End With
With cbcNewMenu.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
.Caption = "Record"
.OnAction = "RecordMacro"
End With
End Sub
Sub InsertBreak()
Selection.InsertBreak wdPageBreak
End Sub
Sub InsertTime()
Selection.InsertDateTime DateTimeFormat:="HH:mm", InsertAsField:=False, _
DateLanguage:=wdEnglishUS, CalendarType:=wdCalendarWestern, _
InsertAsFullWidth:=False
End Sub

Here is how it works…

The variable cbMenuBar is set to the main Word menu bar which is called «Menu Bar».

Set cbMenuBar = Application.CommandBars(«Menu Bar»)

I got its name by running this code…

For Each cb In Application.CommandBars
Debug.Print cb.Name
Next

…to see all the Command Bar names.

Next, we save the ID of the help mean since we will need to supply a value to the Before parameter for the Controls.Add function…

idHelp = cbMenuBar.Controls(«Help»).Index

Next we delete the button if it was previously added so as not to create a second, third, etc.

On Error Resume Next
Application.CommandBars(«Menu Bar»).Controls(«Fa&vorite»).Delete
On Error GoTo 0

Next we set the CommandBarControl variable to a new control using the Help menu’s ID for the before parameter…

Set cbcNewMenu = cbMenuBar.Controls.Add(msoControlPopup, , , idHelp)

We then give the control a caption…

cbcNewMenu.Caption = «Fa&vorite»

the «&» before the «v» will let us activate the menu with ALT + v.

We then add two items to the menu…

With cbcNewMenu.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
.Caption = "Properties"
.OnAction = "ShowProperties"
End With
With cbcNewMenu.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
.Caption = "Record"
.OnAction = "RecordMacro"
End With

The two macros at the end will be run respectively when a menu
item is chosen. You can write your own macros or record them, including
recording the built-in menu items as was done for this tutorial.

You can also create submenus in your VBA Word menus.
