Im trialling this software and have found this problem unless I have a setting wrong, my restrictions are I have a tick in Disable all ribbons and toolbars, now after I compile the application and run it I do not see any of the excel toolbars etc, however I can go to the Office Button then select Excel Options, scroll down to Advanced then under Display place a tick back in Show Formula bar then whoah, the formula bar is shown with all my formulas ?
