When i try to customize the toolbars in word the new icon appears on the tool
bar but when i close word and reopen the icon has gone. i think this is a
normal.dot problem but iI'm lost I cant find a way round permanently
cutonizing my word toolbars

From the FAQ:

28. I can't save my customizations - AutoText, menus, etc.
Can't save normal.dot...
If you have Adobe Acrobat 7 installed see the last section of
http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adob...at_toolbar.htm.
Otherwise, hold down the Shift key when selecting the File
menu and select Save All.
