Custom Ribbon doesn't refresh
First of all many thanks for take some time to read my question.
I'm new with XML-VBA (actually is my 1st incursion on this)
I've create the following custom ribbon for an Excell addin:
And the following code in my VBA project (not developed for me, as I mentioned I'm new on this)
Module Ribbon
Module Buttons
All works fine when I start Excel, the addin is loaded, the custom "test Tab" is showed, once the login is completed three additional buttons are showed, my problem is that after I press button "Generar" or "Dudas/comentarios" the macro assigned to these run OK and when I press the "Salir" button to hide the buttons but I received the notification that something went wrong (Runtime error 91: Object variable or with block variable not set), I've reviewed and looking for information but I have not find nothing related.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Under certain circumstances, when your modules run in an unhandled error or recompiles of code files, the values of module level variables are lost. So you need error handling in all of your modules methods. Even a

Then you should rethink your approach: Use a generic methods and evaluate the control id's. Cause these methods must be otherwise all defined separately using the correct parameter list. So clean-up your code.

@ste5an are you actually advocating On Error Resume Next?
Also your comments are confusing (at least they are to me)....
Clean up your code, e.g.

Sorry not understanding, perhaps there's a typo?

Hi ste5an many thanks for your answer, I've reviewed it and definitely is a better approach, I've set this part as follows:
In this way when file opens I only can see login group as I need, my doubt is how can I proceed in order to show the three groups (grpGenerarBpr, grpNote and grpExit) once the macro assigned to button btnLogIn finishes?.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Hi ste5an
In response to your recently deleted post, I probably misinterpreted - looked like you were suggesting that the Ribbon XML could be replaced with VBA....
Clean up this <XML> with <VBA>; i.e. I thought replace this <XML> with <VBA>. Which, obviously is not what you meant. Guessing the 'with' should have been an 'and'.

E.g.
But instead of using tags, you should consider using the id:
with
and use the group id, instead of the tag value.
Public Sub RibbonGetVisible(AControl As IRibbonControl, ByRef AVisible)
On Local Error Resume Next
If m_Tag = "show" Then
AVisible = True
Else
AVisible = (AControl.Tag Like m_Tag)
End If
End Sub
