Sub Disable_Shortcut()
CommandBars(43).Enabled = False
' You can also use the name of the shortcut menu like this
' line of code: CommandBars("ply").Enabled = False
End Sub
NOTE: To enable the shortcut menu for worksheet tabs, modify the macro, change the value of the Enabled property to True, and then rerun the macro.
