More importantly, note that *.docx and *.dotx files are always macro-free,
which means that you cannot use them with toolbars that depend on macros.
Although I am sure that your intended meaning here is correct, the meaning
that comes through may be misleading. It is certainly true that *.docx and
*.dotx files cannot contain toolbars that depend on macros, but they can
certainly *use* macros in Normal.dotm or any other *.doc, *.dot, or *.dotm
file loaded as an add-in or attached template.

Clarification:
If one or more toolbar buttons make use of macros, the document or
template containing that toolbar must be in a trusted location (such as
the templates folder), assuming that you haven't changed the default
security settings in Word.
More importantly, note that *.docx and *.dotx files are always macro-free,
which means that you cannot use them with toolbars that depend on macros.

Thank you Stefan,
I do have the file with the Add-in tabs (dot file). I also have the one
without (dotx file) the tab. My assumptions is the original person
opened
up
the dot file, made changes and then did a file save as; which made it a
dotx
file. When I open the docx file I get a dialog box that says The macros
in
this project are disabled. Then I have to click OK not sure how to turn
that
off or if it is needed. The dotx file does not do that. Since the dotx
has
changes that is the one I need the add-in tab on and the icon that are
on
the
dot file associted with it.

Word 2007 uses the Add-Ins tab to display custom toolbars created in
earlier
versions of Word. Note that toolbars can be in a document or in an
associated template. If they are in the template you need the template
file
to see the Add-Ins tab when you open the document.

I have a word document I believe was created in 2003 (dot); which has
a
bunch
of icons under the add-ins tab like H1; which I assume means header
1.
This
document was sent to another individual who has 2007 and not sure
what
was
done to it but when I open it in 2007 I do not even have the Add-in
tab.
So
my question is how do I get that add-in tab and transfer those icons
from
the
one version to 2007? Funny thing, when I open up the one that I
think
was
created in 2003 in my 2007 version I see the add-in, but when I open
up
the
version that was messed with I don't see any of that.
I hope this make since. I do not see a place to upload the document
to
show
you.
Thanks
