?! But a couple of items in that list are things that people posted
special macros for me for! (BibliographyCitationtoText,
BibliographytoText -- when the commands in the respective frames
ceased working for me.)

There's also one called "Create Bibliography from Sel." ??

(As for making new buttons, as you say on that page, "difficult and
complex." Though now I know why I have a "Custom UI Editor" folder on
my desktop. Left over from a previous time you referenced this
procedure.)

So, is there a bunch of ready-to-go macros sitting somewhere, such
that if one only knows their name, one can just pop them into use?

They are called built-in Word commands and the list is available using the
Macro dialog/Macros in dropdown.

You can add practically any icon to the QAThttp://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Ribbon_Custom_Icons.htm

Thank you ... now, this is weird!! As soon as I put the title of the
new macro, "ShowParas," into the box for the title of the new macro, a
pre-written macro appeared in the box at the bottom, and all I had to
do was OK it!

The same, however, did not happen when I tried to make another one for
ShowTabs. I had to paste Graham's six lines and delete the
ShowParagraphs one.

And unfortunately there aren't any ideal icons in the available
collection ... I used the green right-pointing triangle for Paras and
the fat blue right-pointing arrow for Tabs.

The following will toggle paragraphs and tabs display. If you only

paragraph marks toggled, remove the tabs line

I'd like a QAT button for Paragraph Marks. I have them (and Tabs)
always on (but not the other Non-Printing Characters), but they
interfere considerably when dealing with tables. Especially since the
Paragraph Mark coding is used in some non-roman fonts for actual
letters, so they appear in the cells rather than faint circles.-
