Add customized button
In Word 2003 I was able to add customized macro buttons so I could click on
them to open forms such as my letterhead. I was able to customize the button so it said LTRH or something similar. In the Word 2007, I can add the buttons, but I don't seem able to customize the buttons--I can only select an icon from a list. Is there a way to customize the bottoms? -- Carolan |

If you no longer have a copy of Word 2003 that you can get access to, then no, there is no way to do that. If you can get onto 2003, see http://www.gmayor.com/Toolbars_in_word_2007.htm or http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Ribbon_Custom_Icons.htm. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

Although Greg's quoted web page
(http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Ribbon_Custom_Icons.htm) uses the Word 2003 icon editor, you can create the icons used in that page with any graphics editor that will enable you to create icons - such as Windows Paint, so Word 2003 is not a requirement for that particular process. It is also no more difficult to add a ribbon tab to hold the macros and Greg's alternative page http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/Customize_Ribbon.htm demonstrates that also. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Jay Freedman wrote: CarolAn wrote: In Word 2003 I was able to add customized macro buttons so I could click on them to open forms such as my letterhead.
