New Blank Toolbar not shown
I'm using word 2003 & when I tried to create a new toolbar (Tools | Customise
| Toolbars | New) after specifying the new toolbar name to be created and the tmeplate for (make toolbar available to). Nothing happened. I was expecting Word to create a new blank toolbar somewhere new the Customise dialog box. Please help. |

The toolbar is quite small (big enough for one button) until you add
something to it; it grows as you add each button. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "ecctse" wrote in message ...

Thanks for your advice. This is not the 1st time I create new toolbars and I
know how small it is until I drag & drop items into it. I looked around everywhere on the screen but it's nowhere in sight. Any other suggestions? "Suzanne S.

You might try dragging the Customize dialog aside to see if the toolbar has
appeared behind it. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "ecctse" wrote in message ... Thanks for your advice.

Dragged the Customize dialog box everywhere but the new toolbar control is
still nowhere is sight. Obviously it's not that simple or I will not post the question here. Any word settings or any other reasons that word will not create a new toolbar control? "Suzanne S.

I'm sorry. I'm afraid I can't think of any.

Hi Ecctse,
If you use Start=Run Winword.exe /A and then use Tools=Customize to add a toolbar to Document 1 rather than to Normal.dot does it work? ============= "ecctse" wrote in message ...

Hi Bob,
Yes, the new toolbar does appear. What does the switch /A mean please? Any other workarounds?

It can point to a conflicting add-in controlling some of Word's features or a corrupted template file.
Using Word with the /A startup switch is a diagnostic rather than implementation step.

Hi Bob,
Once I load all the custom templates (about 10 of them), it crashes. Now I need to debug which of them is/are corrupted.

Hi Suzanne,
Thanks so much for your help. I guess I must have some of my custom templates corrupted that cause the problem. Cheers, "Suzanne S.

Hi Bob & Suzanne,
You guys a legend. I've just found that my Normal.dot is corrupted. Once I restored a health one. I can create new toolbar now.
