Toolbar icons
I have a few custom toolbar buttons, but I would like to change the icons on
them. It seems Word will allow you to chose from a limited list or create your own with little squares. Is there any way to be able to browse through a list of .ico files I have on my drive? -- All the Best . . . Richard Harison |

You can use Windows Find\Search to look for *.ico. See also

Thank you...seems to be enough there to keep me busy! It's a shame that
there isn't just a browse button. -- All the Best . . . Richard Harison "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... | You can use Windows Find\Search to look for *.ico.

Search Google for Icon Editor. Some of these will sour your Windows folders for Icons and save them to a new file. -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "Richard Harison" wrote in message ... :I have a few custom toolbar buttons, but I would like to change the icons on : them.

You have to open the icon in an icon editor and then paste them onto a
button face in Word. Terry "Richard Harison" wrote in message . .. : Thank you. I have already hundreds of .ico files.

Thank you, Terry. I used the template download suggested by Suzanne
Barnhill and now at least I have a couple of hundred from which to choose. Thanks to you & all!

The article Suzanne referred to was very informative... and it also brought up something I've noticed lately on my home Win98 (word 2000) and work XP. It seems that some images that are supposed to have a white background have a gray or black background when I paste them into word. Why does that occur? It doesn't seem to matter if they are floating or not. TIA |

The only guess I might have (and probably not a good one) would be something
in the appearance tab of desktop properties. Better let the MVPs handle this one! -- All the Best . . .
