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 |

Cannot add Header & Footers toolbar
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. -- HTH|:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Randy" wrote in message ...

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. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome!

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.

Cannot add Header & Footers toolbar
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. -- Regards |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Randy" wrote in message ...

Cannot add Header & Footers toolbar
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.

Cannot add Header & Footers toolbar
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. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome!

Cannot add Header & Footers toolbar
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.

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