On June 30 I posted a message regarding the icons from 4 of my personal
macros unexplainably dropping off the Word 2003 tool bar. I have done
everything Graham, Suzanne and Stefan have suggested but it continues to
happen. I have gone to Toolscustomize and put the icons back in place on
the tool bar countless times but it continues.

I want to add that this started occurring the same day I made some changes
to my Outlook Email [no registry stuff]. I have three other computers and
the icons disappearing has never been an issue, using the exact same macros.
Word continues to be my email editor for Outlook.

Any other suggestions?

Are you sure that Adaptive Menus are disabled (Show Full Menus)?

In that case, the only solution is to create your own Custom Toolbar. Add
all the command icons you use regularly including the Macro command buttons
you created. Now use your Custom Tool bar and close the Standard and Format
Toolbars. If you are like me, you probably only use a few of those commands
regularly anyway. Save this custom toolbar to a completely new template -
call it CustTB.dot. Place the template in the Word Startup folder. It will
be automatically loaded when Word is started.

In following the procedure to create a custom toolbar as described in Word
2003 help, I found that I can only save the new toolbar in normal.dot or
document 1. How do I save it to the Word Startup folder?

You have to create a new template and be working in it in order to save the
toolbar to it. You then save that template in Word's Startup folder.

I have the custom toolbar in place with one minor problem. All of the icons
I put on the toolbar got across the top in a single line. Is there a way to
break up the line into 2 lines of icons?

If it's docked it has to be a single line; if it's floating you can resize
it by dragging sides/corners (at least while the Customize dialog is open).

Grab it by its handle and drag it away from the edge of the screen. The
handle is the left end where the three dots are. And it can be resized even
without opening the Customize dialog. If you drag it back to a docked
position, it will revert to a single row.

I've tried and is still can't get the Custom Toolbar icons to go into 2
rows. There is a check box for standard toolbars to go to two rows but I
can't find anything for custom toolbars.

When you hover the mouse over the right end of a floating toolbar, you
should see a sizing arrow (just as you would on an AutoShape). Drag the side
until the toolbar becomes narrower. Depending on the number of icons, you
have have two, three, or more rows.
