Just to confirm what sumgain have write above.

It works perfectly just do as he said : remove the part after the "x1:" that refers to a specific workbook until the begining of the maccro's name. example : When you export your custom ribbon with the maccro attached to it it will be write like below : idQ="x1:C:_FolderName_Filename.xlsm_Fill_Formulas_Cells"

THen you remove the part mentionned and it will become like that :

idQ="x1:Fill_Formulas_Cells"

Same for onAction keep only the Maccro Name Then it will works perfectly as long as you the maccro's name in the workbook stay consistent if you modified the Macros name then you have to modified it in the exportedUI file.

Then when you will reload the new file you can check in the Excel Options customize ribbon on the customize button if you put the pointer on you will see "Maccro: Name of your maccro"

And not the path of the file the maccro was from.

No need to use custom UI editor or any other things such as personnal maccro at least for that and if you are not bother to have custom ribbon in all of your woorkbook.

As well it is obvious but still good to remind it, you need to have the maccro in the workbook this procedure is just there to call the maccro that are associate to the workbook, it doesn't contain the code of the maccro.
