Header/Footer toolbar just disapepared. Can I get it back?
I have Word 2000, and was trying to add a watermark. In the process, my
header/footer toolbar disappeared. Page layout view and the head/footer viewer are selected. I have tried the repair utility and it didn't fix it. I assume its from the normal.doc template, but am at a loss as to how to get the darned thing back. Any ideas? Thanks! |

In Page Layout view, choose Tools - Customize - Toolbars tab. Header and
Footer should be listed... click to place a check next to it (don't have Word 2K on this computer, so I can't verify the steps). -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Please respond in the newsgroups so everyone can follow along. http://www.herbtyson.com "JASIPC" wrote in message ...

Thanks, Herb, but no luck. Header and Footer was not one of the toolbar
choices. I have a feeling it's an option somewhere, but deeply burried. Ugh. - jon "Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote: In Page Layout view, choose Tools - Customize - Toolbars tab.

I think I left out a step (just went to the other computer to look at Word
2000): 1. Choose View - Headers and Footers. This puts you in the header area, and normally would display the Header/Footer toolbar. 2. Choose Tools - Customize - Toolbars tab. Does Header and Footer show up now? If so, is it checked? If this doesn't work, then I'm beginning to suspect some kind of template or registry corruption.

Okay, so I figured it out after only about 3 hours of fiddling. You were
right about the registry corruption. I dumped the old registry and relaunched and voila, the toolbar is back! Thanks Herb!!!
