Default Excel 2007 custom ribbon not showing in Excel 2010

I have an app developed in Excel 2007. Some off-site users recently upgraded to Excel 2010 and say when they load the file they can't see the custom ribbon at all. (It appeared fine for them when they ran Excel 2007, before their upgrade.) I've installed Excel 2010 (while keeping Excel 2007 installed) on my PC and the ribbon appears for me in Excel 2010.



Does anyone know if there are any Excel settings the others have that would prevent the custom ribbon from appearing?

I've tried changing seveal settings in the Trust Center but the ribbon still always appears, as it should, for me. I really need some help on this; I'm out of things to try.

  • I would determine if they are seeing the "Full Screen" -- Ask them to click Escape to take them out of Full Screen should they be in this

To see what I mean, you can see this on your screen: View, Workbook Views (to the left), Full Screen (which "esc" gets you out)

  • Failing this, next what do they see when they go to Excel's Options, Custom Ribbon and work from there
They should see on the right a table listed as "Main Tabs" and below a listing of the various Tabs, such as Home, Insert, etc.

Depending on the we can from these points

Thanks for the reply.
They are not in Full Screen because they can see the standard Excel ribbon. But as you suggested, I'll check with them next week to see what specific tabs they can and can't see.

If you or anyone else has any other idea, I'd be grateful.

I'm still thinking that there's some setting their IT folks have set that's stopping the custom ribbon from loading but I don't know what setting is involved.
