Workbook Taskbar Add-In Posted

My PUP 2000 product had a utility called Workbook Taskbar, which displayed a toolbar with a button for each open workbook. It was just a quick way to jump between workbooks. Here's what it looks like when it's floating (rather than docked):

I eventually discovered that it did not play nicely with some other add-ins that use event procedures. I never thought it was all that useful anyway, so I removed Workbook Taskbar from subsequent versions of PUP.

However, I get a surprising number of requests from upgraders who miss the Workbook Taskbar. Most of them find it preferable to Excel's 'Windows in Taskbar" option. So I've made it available as a stand-alone add-in, and is available here: Workbook Taskbar Add-In. When installed, it creates a new menu item on the Tools menu, which you can use to toggle the Taskbar on and off.

And yes, I realize that the name is very confusing because Windows also has a taskbar.

Use it at your own risk -- especially if you use other add-ins that monitor events. If things start acting screwy, just uninstall it.
