This article assumes that you are familiar with the programming language that is being demonstrated and with the tools that are used to create and to debug procedures. Microsoft support engineers can help explain the functionality of a particular procedure, but they will not modify these examples to provide added functionality or construct procedures to meet your specific requirements. In Visual Basic for Applications, you can add or remove menus and submenus using the CommandBars collection. To remove a submenu, you must use an index in addition to the CommandBars collection. The index identifies the submenu using either a number or the menu name. 
   Public Sub RemoveSubMenu()

      Dim objMenuBar As Object

      ' Opens MyMenu which contains the submenu you want to remove.
      Set objMenuBar = CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar. _
         Controls("MyMenu").CommandBar

      ' Removes MySubMenu.
      objMenuBar.Controls("MySubMenu").Delete

   End Sub
