When you hover the mouse over the right end of a floating toolbar, you
should see a sizing arrow (just as you would on an AutoShape). Drag the side
until the toolbar becomes narrower. Depending on the number of icons, you
have have two, three, or more rows.

I've tried and is still can't get the Custom Toolbar icons to go into 2
rows. There is a check box for standard toolbars to go to two rows but I
can't find anything for custom toolbars.

Grab it by its handle and drag it away from the edge of the screen. The
handle is the left end where the three dots are. And it can be resized
even without opening the Customize dialog. If you drag it back to a
docked position, it will revert to a single row.

Is there a way to change it from docked to floating. I've tried
dragging
and that won't work.

If it's docked it has to be a single line; if it's floating you can
resize it by dragging sides/corners (at least while the Customize
dialog
is open).

I have the custom toolbar in place with one minor problem. All of the
icons I put on the toolbar got across the top in a single line. Is
there
a way to break up the line into 2 lines of icons?

You have to create a new template and be working in it in order to
save
the toolbar to it. You then save that template in Word's Startup
folder.

In following the procedure to create a custom toolbar as described
in
Word 2003 help, I found that I can only save the new toolbar in
normal.dot or document 1. How do I save it to the Word Startup
folder?

In that case, the only solution is to create your own Custom
Toolbar.
Add all the command icons you use regularly including the Macro
command buttons you created. Now use your Custom Tool bar and close
the Standard and Format Toolbars. If you are like me, you probably
only use a few of those commands regularly anyway. Save this custom
toolbar to a completely new template - call it CustTB.dot. Place
the
template in the Word Startup folder. It will be automatically
loaded
when Word is started.

Are you sure that Adaptive Menus are disabled (Show Full Menus)?

On June 30 I posted a message regarding the icons from 4 of my
personal macros unexplainably dropping off the Word 2003 tool
bar.
I have done everything Graham, Suzanne and Stefan have suggested
but it continues to happen. I have gone to Toolscustomize and
put the icons back in place on the tool bar countless times but
it
continues.

I want to add that this started occurring the same day I made
some
changes to my Outlook Email [no registry stuff]. I have three
other computers and the icons disappearing has never been an
issue, using the exact same macros. Word continues to be my
email
editor for Outlook.

Any other suggestions?
