Custom Menus and Toolbars
have created three new menus:
Forms Form 1 Form 2 Form 3 Shortcuts Shortcut 1 Shortcut 2 Shortcut 3 DB DB 1 DB 2 DB 3 Each of these items is a macro that opens the document or performs a function. I have gone to Tools/Customize and have dragged the macros to the appropriate menu. When I get out of Word and then reenter it the menus have all been scrambled. Usually one of the menus is completely blank and, for instance, the Shortcuts are on the DB menu or the Forms are on the Shortcut menu. I have repeatedly fixed the menus but it messes up every time. Does anyone have any ideas why it is doing this? I have also created a custom toolbar. Many times, the tool bar is not visible and I have to go in and make it visible. How can I make all of these items stay put? In case this has some bearing on the situation, I have changed the registry to €śprevent the add-in from loading, edit the Windows registry. Locate the key[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Word\ Addins\PDFMaker.OfficeAddin] and changed the subkey called "LoadBehavior" from a value of 3 to 0.€ť -- S |

Custom Menus and Toolbars
The registry hack that you have mentioned is only required with early
versions of Acrobat 7 (which itself can be updated). There are better ways of preventing the Acrobat add-in from loading for other versions - http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adob...at_toolbar.htm However while the add-in's desire to write to your menu structure is probably the reason for the problems, you might get away with opening normal.dot in Word. Make the required menu changes then type a character in the text space and delete it. Then save normal.dot. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Sharon wrote: have created three new menus: Forms Form 1 Form 2 Form 3 Shortcuts Shortcut 1 Shortcut 2 Shortcut 3 DB DB 1 DB 2 DB 3 Each of these items is a macro that opens the document or performs a function.
