change the toolbars that appear when I open new document?
I've recently moved to Windows XP/Word 2003. I want specific toolbars to
display every time I open Word/new document. When I open a new document, I can change the toolbars, but I can't get the change to stick - once I exit the document and Word and reopen Word, it reverts to the old toolbars. |

You can record a macro and name it AutoNew.
When you record it, display the toolbars you want to show. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Thanks. Problem is...I don't know anything about recording Macros. Plus it
seems like there's got to be a way to tell Word "these are the toolbars I want to display every time I open a document." "Charles Kenyon" wrote: You can record a macro and name it AutoNew.

It's time you learned about macros - see
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm for an idiot's guide I don't know what toolbars you want selected, but the following code will give you a clue as to what is required: CommandBars("Reviewing").Visible = True CommandBars("Drawing").Visible = False CommandBars("Forms").Visible = True Save the macro with the name Autonew (the three lines of code will display the reviewing and forms toolbar but turn off the drawing toolbar). You can get the names of your toolbars by right clicking the toolbar area. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Dolly wrote: Thanks.
