How do I remove a macro from the tool bar?
I am in the process of learning Advanced Microsoft Office Word. My
infomation is talking about creating a macro. It says to select macro tools record new macro. In the macro name text box, it suggests to enter "signature" as an example I then clicked tool bar. Now, signature is on my tool bar and won't come off! I'm just practing as I learn. How do I remove "Normal.new macro.signature" I tried to delete it, but it's still there... |

Hi
First, bear in mind that the macro exists independently of the toolbar button that invokes the macro. To remove the button, Tools Customize. Click on the offending button and drag it off the toolbar. Now close the Customize dialog box. If you didn't consciously choose where to save your toolbar button, it was probably stored in normal.dot. So, when you exit Word, if you are asked whether you want to save normal.dot, say Yes. To delete the macro itself, Tools Macros Macros. Find your macro and click Delete. Hope this helps.

You can just as easily get rid of a toolbar button by holding the Alt key
and dragging it off the toolbar. But--as Shauna said--that doesn't remove the macro (either). ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "Shauna Kelly" wrote in message ...
