header/footer tool bar won't appear
Hi. I am using Word 2003. I have noticed that when I go to view-header/footer, I land in the header, but the toolbar that allows me to switch to the footer etc. won't appear. To make it show up, I have to click a couple of times where one right clicks to access the other toolbars. It's really quite time-consuming and annoying. Is there a way to get the header/footer toolbar to behave like it should? Thanks! -- Colleen |

Hi, Colleen,
I'm not sure if I am understanding you correctly, but to get the Header/Footer toolbar to show, right click the main toolbar and select "Customize" and then the "Toolbar" tab. In the list enable "Header and Footer" and all should be well. Hope this helps, Ed "Colleen" wrote in message ... Hi. I am using Word 2003.

It is probably floating off your screen.
Open a document and go into Header / Footer view. If the toolbar does not display then press Alt-F11. This brings up the vba editor. At the bottom of the screen should be a window that says "Immediate Window." If it is not, press Ctrl-G. Type the following in the Immediate Window and press Enter: Application.CommandBars("Header and Footer").Visible = True Go back to the Word window. Can you see your toolbar? If not then go back to the Immediate Window and add the following two statements: Application.CommandBars("Header and Footer").Top = 394 Application.CommandBars("Header and Footer").Left = 152 Note, you can cut and paste the statements from this message into the Immediate Window but have to paste them one at a time and press Enter at the end of each statement yourself. You can close the vba Editor. Your toolbar should be there and should stick around for you next time you open Word's header/footer view.
