VB help creating a toggle button

I'm just starting to get my head around some basic VB programming for writing macros in word... and I need help already! Can anyone tell me how best to create a toggle button macro? I want to be able to show/hide a toolbar that I've created called 'Tables'.

so far all I can work out is to open and then close the toolbar
CommandBars ("Tables").Visible = True
CommandBars ("Tables").Visible = False
but I want to be able to do it with a single button, not two.

I know it's basic, but ya gotta start somewhere!

 

Hi there, welcome to the board!

Just check it's state. You can check the visible property as well as set it. You can also toggle it to the opposite state as it is a boolean (true/false) setting. Take a look at the following. ...

Code:

commandbars("Tables").visible = not commandbars("Visible").visible
