Default Cannot add Header & Footers toolbar

Hello, when I click View | Header and Footer in Word 2003 only the outline of
the Header and Footer editing window appears, I do not see the actual Header
and Footer toolbar. If, however, the user logs off the network and another
user logs in on the same computer, when they click View | Header and Footer
the editing window and the actual toolbar appear. When Word was started using
either the /safe or /a switch for the user on which it was is problem the
Header and Footer editing window and toolbar successfully appear. We also
tried uninstalling and reinstalling just Word but the problem remains. Any
help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Regards,

Randy

Not sure this will resolve it, but the first thing I would try is:

Have the 'problem user' log in & launch Word, then go to ViewHeader and
Footer. While there, go to ViewToolbarsCustomize. On the Toolbars page of
the dialog box put a check in the box for the Header and Footer toolbar,
then click the Close button.

That should turn the toolbar back on & fix the problem. If not, post back
with results.

Default Cannot add Header & Footers toolbar

It is probably off the screen (stray mouse movements?).

In the vba editor try typing the following in the immediate window.

CommandBars("Header and Footer").Enabled = True
CommandBars("Header and Footer").Visible = True
CommandBars("Header and Footer").Position = msoBarFloating
CommandBars("Header and Footer").Left = 144
CommandBars("Header and Footer").Top = 163

These need to be typed one at a time and Enter pressed after each one.
This will move the toolbar on the screen if I am correct.

Default Cannot add Header & Footers toolbar

Hello, thank you very much for your prompt reply. Sorry, I didn't include one
other piece of information: When we click View | Header and Footer for the
problem user, then click View | Toolbars | Customize, for some reason we
cannot click to put a check mark next to the Header and Footer listing - the
system just beeps and no check mark is inserted. Thank you.

Sorry my suggeston didn't work for you, but the reply from Charles should
fix the problem. I'm still curious based on your last post - Apparently the
H/F toolbar is listed, but it is unclear whether the box is checked or not.
That may make a difference if the other idea doesn't work either.

Hi Charles,

Thanks for your reply. Once I enter the code you indicate below in the VBA
Editor, is justy clicking FILE | SAVE NORMAL sufficient to make those changes
take effect? The reason I am asking is even after I entered the code and
saved it the Header and Footer bar still doesn't appear onscreen. I should
note, though, that we do see the dotted outline of the Header window, where
we can enter text. Again, your help is appreciated.

Regards,

Randy

After you type each line in the Immediate Window, are you pressing the Enter
key?
Do you know what the Immediate Window in the vba editor is?

Once you have typed each line and pressed Enter you have sent the command to
Word. When you have typed all of the lines, the toolbar should be on your
screen.

I don't even know that you need to save normal, but it won't hurt.

I was typing the code in the wrong window. Unfortunately after doing this the
toolbar still didn't appear. I ended up reinstalling Office 2003 SP2 and this
appears to have resolved the problem (I always treat that as a last resort -
I prefer finding a quicker fix), so likely the problem was deeper than what I
suspected. Thanks again for your help Charles, really appreciated.

Reinstalling never changes anything of this sort because it does not replace
Normal.dot, change Registry entries, or remove add-ins.
