How do I force the outline toolbar NOT to show up when I am in Outline view
in MS Word 2003? When I go to View/toolbars and uncheck it, it always comes
back on when I am working on items in the Outline view. I cannot get rid of
it....

I need to get rid of it because it conflicts with the Endnote toolbar I also
use in this Outline view. (And only in Outline view is there a conflict.)
When both toolbars are there they make the Outline View screen jump and
flicker. thank.s

The following macro will replace the Outline View internal call and switch
off the toolbar when Outline view is selected.

Sub ViewOutlineMaster()
ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type = wdMasterView
CommandBars("Outlining").Visible = False
End Sub

Hi, I made the macro, ViewOutlineMaster, with the code you gave me, but when
I try to run it, click on it under macros and click on run, I get the error
message about an ambiguous macro name?

The code merely duplicates an internal Word function. Have you entered it
correctly?
The debug routine should take you to the specific error. My guess is you
have something like

Sub ViewOutlineMaster()
Sub ViewOutlineMaster()
ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type = wdMasterView
CommandBars("Outlining").Visible = False
End Sub
End Sub

Thanks, Graham, once again you did it. There must have been as you say a
duplicate name in that listing....
