It has helped a little, hasn't resolved my issues though. I'll have a bit more time working with it, thanks

Maybe that helps...I found it in my files by accident :).

I think it might be the file you are looking for.

I got the file from the internet a long time ago, unfortunately I can't remember where exactly.

Works with Office 2016 for MAC from version 15.17

 

Hope I was able to help you with this file.

You can also quickly press Ctrl + F1 at any time to turn the ribbon on or off.

These keyboard shortcuts also work for PowerPoint, Word, and all Microsoft applications. Alternatively, you can use Command + Option + R keyboard shortcut to show or hide the ribbon on Excel Mac.

 

Hope I could help you with these information / links.

@NikolinoDE thank you for your reply. But sorry I understand all these posts that it is possible to hide only part of the menu bar, but not hide the menu bar completely . I want my Excel application to look like its own application, with its own interface and the operator has no chance to change things anymore further in the menu bar.
