The command bars you create in Microsoft® Access are stored with the database in which they are created. If you want to create command bars that are available to more than one database, you must create them in an add-in database and reference that database from each database application where you want the command bars to be available.

Built-in command bars and information about them, for example their visibility and location, is stored in the Windows registry.

The location of information about command bars in an Access database is not dependant upon whether user profiles have been set up for multiple users.
