Default How can I customize a toolbar to insert a specific word in the

Yes. It is hard to do, at least for me. It requires vba programming in
multiple ranges.
Preparing AutoText is relatively easy, as you've seen.
If you format it to the header/footer style, it will show up on the AutoText
menu.

This would require that you train you users on how to do footers. That is
not a bad thing to do.

Charles,

Thanks for the answer.

It would be good if the users could, for exemple, choose Confidential in
the
Toolbar and the word Confidential is written in the footer and, if the
user
selected the wrong classification and want to chenge, they just choose
other
classification in the toolbar and the word Confidential is automatically
changed to Public.

Is it too hard to do?

Far easier would be to add these as AutoText entries that will show up on
the header/footer toolbar. This would mean actually opening the
header/footer view. The entries themselves could be Word Art images.

Otherwise, you can write (not record) macros to do this, but they won't
be
simple. Keep in mind that each Word section has up to three separate
footers
and that these may or may not be configured to be the same as previous
section's footers.

Once you have these in your header/footer, do you want your toolbar to
also
remove them? (Hint, this is even harder.)

Pick your method and write back. Someone will probably assist you.

Hi,

I need to create a toolbar with comands to be used in Data
Classification.
My idea is to add the words confidential, secret and public (each one
in a
different command on the toolbar) in the footer of a Word document.

I tried to use some pre-defined command but they need addictional steps
to
do the task.

Can anyone help me?
