Start All Programs Accessories Windows Explorer
The name "Explorer" is fairly well established although there may be some
users who don't recognise it - or confuse it with Internet Explorer
(although you can browse your computer with IE if you want). Microsoft
terminology can have a tendency to confuse but it simply isn't possible to
give details for all possible scenarios. The OP does have the ability to ask
for more detail if there is something he doesn't understand, but I suspect a
user of Word 2000 probably knows what Explorer is.
In this instance the Explorer one, perhaps, wants to use is the Word Open
Dialog; going via My Computer is a long way round.

And where on one's computer, praytell, will one find something labeled
"Windows Explorer" or "Windows Vista Explorer"? Not in the Start menu
or in the Start All Programs menu.
My point in several messages these last few days is that the experts
are giving vague hints that will only require the OPs to post again
asking what they mean (as happens very often), instead of explicit
instructions the first time.

Windows Explorer (Windows XP) Windows Vista Explorer (Vista) and Internet
Explorer all have an address bar and will work just the same. They are
merely access points into the Windows filing system.

(When Graham says "Explorer," he means "(My) Computer." Folks who have
been using Windows for many years don't realize that more recent users
aren't aware of the name "Explorer" having been used for anything
other than the internet access tool.)

It should stay where you left it (and certainly does in later Word
versions) however try the following.
Open the Normal template. If you have not changed the default user
template folder, you will find the template in the folder
%appdata%\Microsoft\Templates
Enter or copy the above into the Explorer address bar.
Move the toolbar to where you want it. Add a character to the text
space and delete it. Save and close the template.
Close and re-open Word. Is the toolbar now where you left it?
