Office toolbar

[aurigny]

Hi, everybody.

Since installing Office 2003 Pro we have bewailed the loss
of our toolbar. MS keep telling us that we should use the
'quick start' at the bottom of the screen, but it's really
no the same, especially as we have a number of different
programms, plus sets of templates that we use regularly and
the toolbar was so quick opening them.

Does anyone have an idea why we shouldn't load the toolbar
from a previous version - to listen to MS this'll make the
PC go into melt-down!!

We think they say that because they've realised they
cocked-up leaving it off the 2003 software!!

Hi, Aurigny,

Though Microsoft never recommends running multiple versions of Office on the
same computer at the same time,
I believe you can use a Shortcut Bar from a persious version. I understand
that the new Office 2003 icons may not look right, but that may not be so
important as functionality.

There are 3rd party toolbars some folks have been
trying out including
