Remove “Save & Send” from File menu in Excel 2010 using custom XML

Question

Could someone please help me modify the following XML code (Office 2007) so that it works in Office 2010? I\'ve included my XML from Office 2007 below:

Answer 1

So of course right after I asked this question I found the solution. Here's the format to remove the various items under the File ribbon (what is now apparently called backstage in Office 2010):

<customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2009/07/customui">
<backstage>
    <button idMso="FileSave" visible="false"/>
    <button idMso="FileSaveAs" visible="false"/>
    <button idMso="FileOpen" visible="false"/>
    <button idMso="FileClose" visible="false"/>
    <button idMso="ApplicationOptionsDialog" visible="false"/>
    <button idMso="FileExit" visible="false"/>
    <tab idMso="TabInfo" visible="false"/>
    <tab idMso="TabRecent" visible="false"/>
    <tab idMso="TabNew" visible="false"/>
    <tab idMso="TabPrint" visible="false"/>
    <tab idMso="TabShare" visible="false"/>
    <tab idMso="TabHelp" visible="false"/>
    </backstage>
</customUI>

This will remove every option under the File menu. You can obviously selectively remove/show the elements you want to.
