Delete menu entry from Word menu bar
Hi,
In Word (Office 2003) an application has installed additional menus in the menu bar. Upon uninstalling the application, the additional menus in the menu bar are still there. How do I delete these additional menus from the menu bar? I have hunted under tools|options|commands, but haven't found a way to delete this. And a web search suggested drag the stray menu off the menu bar, but this does not work. Other suggestions please. Much obliged, Stefan |

Delete menu entry from Word menu bar
You have two options: getting rid of the symptom or the cause. To get rid of
the symptom (toolbar entry) hold ALT and go to the toolbar button and drag it off the desktop. Alternatively go Tools - Customize and select the menu item and drag it off the desktop. Chances are it'll be back next time you open Word. That'll mean that you have to get rid of the cause. The application you loaded added a file to Word that loads the menu item. You will have to find where this item has been loaded and delete it. That could be in the Word Start-up folder or in your profile and loaded via a registry entry or similar. Try a search on your C:drive for all *.dot files and have a look at the file names. Anything that sounds like your application could have loaded? If so try to move it into another folder and re-open Word. You'll have to experiment a bit. Another way is to go to Tools - Templates and Add-ins and see whether there is anything new loaded in the Global template and add-ins bit and remove it from there (which will leave it on but remove it from being displayed). Hope one of these will work for you?! -- Kathy Kensche CTS Creative Template Solutions Ltd. Please do not contact me directly unless you wish CTS to propose a commercial solution for your template.
