? about templates custom menu in word 2003
I have a template I have placed in word startup directory with a custom
menu. the primary purpose of this template is to give user a place to click and start a new report that is based on a separate template. template 1 (loaded in startup dir) has custom menu "Reports" When word starts the "Report" menu is available. One of the items on the "report" menu is start new report. If you click that a macro in template 1 adds new document based on template 2, the problem is that when the new doc opens my "Reports" menu is no longer visible. In options/templates/addins template 1 shows as loaded. This does not occur in Word 2000. I am trying to make this work for both versions of word. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks BRC |

Most likely what's happened is that template 2's menu has inadvertently been
customized, to *hide* your Reports menu. Word is damned quirky in this regard. "BRC" wrote in message oups.com...

Thanks for the input. I am not sure what you are referring to when you
say "hide". When I click on view/toolbars/ the toolbar in question show up on the list. and is checked. Is there somewhere else the where setting are stored? Thanks BRC |

Then it may have been moved off the screen, possibly by a stray mouse
movement when you were writing template 2. With template 2 open (the active document), try entering some code in the vba Immediate window to move it back on screen. What follows is some that I gave a person who had lost the header and footer toolbar. Substitute the name of your toolbar to use it. CommandBars("Header and Footer").Enabled = True CommandBars("Header and Footer").Visible = True CommandBars("Header and Footer").Position = msoBarFloating CommandBars("Header and Footer").Left = 144 CommandBars("Header and Footer").Top = 163 -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome!
