Add-ins tab disappears after reopening a previously saved docx doc
I have a template (.dotm) that has an add-ins tab containing custom toolbar
items. When I create a new .docx document off of this template initially the add-ins tab is vsisble with the custom toolbar items. However, if I close the document and reopen it the add-ins tab disappears? If I save the .docs document as a .doc document and reopen the .doc document the add-ins tab reappears????? |

Add-ins tab disappears after reopening a previously saved docx
Hi Cindy,
I am using the RTM version. Alos, I'm not sure if it matters, but, I am running the documents under compatibility mode.

Hi ?B?Sm9obm0=?=,
I am using the RTM version. Alos, I'm not sure if it matters, but, I am running the documents under compatibility mode. Mmmm. Can you give me exact repro steps, starting from how the template came into being? There are so many possible permutations in this scenario, and it's a busy time of year :-) I have a template (.dotm) that has an add-ins tab containing custom toolbar items. When I create a new .docx document off of this template initially the add-ins tab is vsisble with the custom toolbar items. However, if I close the document and reopen it the add-ins tab disappears?

Add-ins tab disappears after reopening a previously saved docx
This is the scenario and steps to reproduce:
We have existing Word 2003 templates that have custom toolbar items assigned to macros embedded in the template. Steps to reproduce: 1) Create a new document off of either a .dot or .dotm template in Office 2007 compatibility mode that has a custom toolbar 2) At this point the newly created document should have the custom toolbar under the Add-Ins tab 3) Save the document in .docm format still maintaining compatibility mode 4) At this point the newly created document should still have the custom toolbar under the Add-Ins tab 5) Close the document 6) Reopen the document and the Add-Ins tab (along with the custom toolbar) is no longer there. I can see the Add-Ins tab for a split second when opening the document, but, it quickly disappears. These are the steps involved. Thanks.

Add-ins tab disappears after reopening a previously saved docx
Hi John,
Sorry for the late reply, things got busy just before the end of the year... I can't reproduce the problem, here. I did the following 1. Took an old template (from Word 95 days, actually) I use in Word 2003, containing macros and toolbars. 2. Copied it to the Word 2007 Templates location (on a different machine) 3. Created a new document from it (that's in compatibility mode). Toolbar is there; the macro runs. 4. Saved the document as a *.docm file. Closed it. Re-opened it. The Add-ins tab is still there. The buttons on it still work. My best guess would be that you may have an Add-in or something that's overriding the template's interface with it's own XML. This could be an Add-in that's triggered by DocumentOpen, for example. (I'm assuming you have checked that the original template is still attached at the point where you're not seeing the Add-ins tab.) This is the scenario and steps to reproduce: We have existing Word 2003 templates that have custom toolbar items assigned to macros embedded in the template. Steps to reproduce: 1) Create a new document off of either a .dot or .dotm template in Office 2007 compatibility mode that has a custom toolbar 2) At this point the newly created document should have the custom toolbar under the Add-Ins tab 3) Save the document in .docm format still maintaining compatibility mode 4) At this point the newly created document should still have the custom toolbar under the Add-Ins tab 5) Close the document 6) Reopen the document and the Add-Ins tab (along with the custom toolbar) is no longer there. I can see the Add-Ins tab for a split second when opening the document, but, it quickly disappears.

Hi Johnm,
To add one item to Cindy's reply. I wasn't able to repro using your steps in the 2007 Trial version. You may want to go to the Word Options area Trust Center (Alt,T,O,T), and in the Trust Center Settings see if your toolbar and Add-In tab appear if you disable all application Add-Ins, restart Word and then open your document. ============ "Johnm" wrote in message ...
