i am able to change my toolbars to display the standard and formatting
toolbars. i have also set the standard and formatting toolbars to show on two
rows. when i close and open Windows, everything is reset to the default. The
default is the email toolbar only. How do i keep the settings i have changed.

Do you have Adobe Acrobat 7 installed?

In order to save this information, you must save normal.dot with the
changes. In order to do that you must have control of normal.dot (e.g. if
this is a company machine some misguided IT departments think it fun to
replace normal.dot with a default version.). Set tools options save
prompt to save normal.dot as a starting point.

Acrobat 7, as indicated by Suzanne, inhibits saving to normal.dot.

Are you using Word as an e-mail editor for Outlook? The differing
requirements for Word as e-mail editor and Word processor will result in
conflict between the two layouts. Use Outlook's own editor.
