Usenet has many thousands of NGs...

(either NNTP NGs or Web forums)

Have no clue about the above abbreviations. By no means a computer novice,
I rarely venture into newsgroups. I am overjoyed to find a seriouse site
like this, but most are just sewers in disguise. Not even a newsgroup, I just
discovered that mainstream AOL is the biggest SEWER on the planet.

I have never used AOL but I do use their IM. Two days ago I decided to
check their chat rooms to ask a question about AOL AIM. I entered the room
that seemed most appropriate and saw nothig but trash and was immediately
bombarded with IM's from those within. I then hopped in and out of several
other rooms of varying descriptions and all were the same. I cannot believe
that one single parent on the planet would allow their children to use AOL as
their ISP.

Sorry for the rant, I came here and you solved my problem in a flash, and i
thank you for that.

Jack...by no means a prude, but there are limits.

forums) I don't know.

I have rebooted and opened word and the pdfmaker toolbar is intact.
Thanks
again. Is there a site like this for Norton products? Their knowledge
base
is bleak and I am having problems with their disk optimizer.

If you find, after you have restarted Word, that PDFMaker.dot is
unchecked
again, then you need to make sure that the Startup folder it's in is the
one
Word is actually using (compare it to the path at Tools | Options | File
Locations). If that is all correct, then the only thing I can think of
is
that some other add-in is unloading it.

Is PDFMaker.dot listed under Tools | Templates and Add-ins?

But of course it is.

If so, is it checked?

But of course it wasn't. Thank you so much, the toolbar is back, but
I
have
no idea what I did to lose them in the first place. Again, thank you
Suzanne.

Office
Startup folder. Are you getting any messages at startup about macros
being
disabled?

Before posting here, I did a search for pdfmaker.dot and found it
at:

C:\program files\adobe\acrobat6.0\pdfmaker.dot
C:\program files\microsoft office\office10\startup\pdfmaker.dot
C:\program files\microsoft office\office11\startup\pdfmaker.dot

It was also under My Computer twice and there were two shortcuts
to
it.

Right clicking on any of the Word toolbars produces a list that
does
not
include pdfmaker.dot If I look at a list of .doc files to open
and
right
click on a file, I do see the option to convert to PDF, but the
PDF
toolbar
is no where to be found.

You should have the toolbar provided you have PDFMaker.dot in
the
Word
or
Office Startup folder. Right-click on any toolbar and select
PDFMaker
6.0
from the list. Word *should* continue to display the toolbar the
next
time
you start up if it is displayed when you quit Word, though
sometimes
getting
Word to save its settings is difficult.

I guess I am looking for the opposite here. After installing
AA
6.0,
I
did
have the PDF toolbar in word, but one day it just disappeared,
and
I
used
it
enough to want to keep it. Now I can't find a way to restore
it.
How
do
I
do that?

I close the PDFMaker toolbar, but it comes back up when I
switch
between
documents or when I open a new one.
