I get a "design mode" icon/bar in the middle of one text file every time I
bring it into Word 2003. And I cannot get rid of it by going to web tools on
the toolbar and clicking it off. It still comes up the next time. I also do
not see a place to get rid of it on the add-ins menu?
Is this hidden in my template somewhere? How do I get rid of it forever? I
never use this toobar.... thanks, Joe
Usually it means there's a control from the Controls Toolbox in the file. Word
treats those controls the same as macros for the purposes of the macro security
mechanism.
Go to Tools Macro Security and set the level to Medium. When you open the
file and you're prompted whether to disable or enable macros, click the Enable
button.
The alternative is to find any controls (combo box, option buttons, etc.) and
delete them.
