remove items from toolbar menu
using word 2002 on new dell e521 dell desktop vista home premium.
on the toolbars drop down menu there are 3 items listed that i would like removed, without deleting them from the program. "extended formatting", "function key display" & "japanese greetings". they are not checked under the options in viewtoolbarsoptions. is there a way to remove them from the drop down toolbar? thank you, len kiesling |

remove items from toolbar menu
Be Really careful doing this. Use Ctrl + Alt + - (the - on the Num Pad). The
cursor will grow into a thick black larger than life - sign. Hover it over a menu which will cause the menu to drop down, then move it over the item you want to remove and click. You have to do this carefully as whilst the cursor is in the mode, it will permanently delete anything you click on. -- Terry Farrell - MS Word MVP "Leonard F Kiesling" wrote in message ... using word 2002 on new dell e521 dell desktop vista home premium. on the toolbars drop down menu there are 3 items listed that i would like removed, without deleting them from the program.

remove items from toolbar menu
thank you for reply.
i understand that the ctl+alt+- will cause curser change. how do you change it back? if i delete the "japanese greetings" for example, is there a way to put it back later? i have same word 2002 at work, & the 3 items i listed do not show there. i thought there was a way to do it in the toolbar's option panel. i may just leave all alone, but i'll wait to hear back. thank you again! len kiesling "Terry Farrell" wrote in message ...

remove items from toolbar menu
To exit the delete mode, just press Escape. To restore the menus,
right-click on a Toolbar and select Customize. You can press the RESET button and it will restore all menus back to the default. You can also edit the menus whilst Customize dialog is open by using the mouse to open and drag off the items unwanted and dropping them into empty space. Or to put them back individually, find the menu item in the list and drag and drop it onto a menu.

remove items from toolbar menu
These options are present because you have support for East Asian languages
enabled; see “Margin marks or crop marks appear on each corner of the page when you open a document in Word 2002 or in Word 2003” at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=839371 for instructions for disabling it. -- Suzanne S.

remove items from toolbar menu
thank you for reply. i did have asian languages which i sucessfully removed
in a previous post. after reading kb839371, & following the directions, i removed many other languages. opened word. still have the 3 items: "extended formatting", "function key display" & "japanese greetings" showing on the toolbar's drop down menu. how about a simple uninstall & reinstall? office trial 2003 was on machine when i installed the word 2002. i hadn't activated the 2003 office trial because i intended to use my word 2002. it was after the install i noticed asain related items. i uninstalled the trial version of office 2003. then, as per this group, used language settings tools to remove all references of asian & all was back normal, so i thought. i'm comparing this to 2 other machines with word 2002's which doesn't show those 3 items. i thought this was a matter of a simple toggle on/off setting. i can use program as is. no other problems so far. any other input greatly appreciated, & thank you for replying! len kiesling "Suzanne S.

remove items from toolbar menu
If you have already disabled the languages, then you should be able to drag
the menu items off with Tools | Customize open. Be sure to save Normal.dot when you quit Word, and they should not reappear. -- Suzanne S.
