    Excel on the Taskbar

    Hi Everyone,
    Is it possible to write anything to display custom text and a custom icon along the bottom, where it generally shows excels icon and the text "microsoft excel".

    I would like it to display the text "Property Database" and the icon C:\Icon.bmp

    Only for the one excel document of course.

    Is this possible to do?

    Thanks,
    Andy

    Hi,

    This will change the caption

    Sub tt()
    Application.Caption = "Badger"
    End Sub

    I don't think you can change the icon directly in VBA, but you could do so
    by making Windows API calls. This is a bit out of range for a beginner to
    intermediate developer.

    Good luck
