Word 2003 top menu Gone !

[Gary D]

The top menu disappears in word 2003 ( File, edit,etc). However this only
happens when Outlook 2003 is open.
If Outlook2003 is closed all is Fine.

Anybody come across this before

Thanks in advance

Even though the menu is MIA, can you still access it? I.e., if you press
Alt+F, do you get the File item?

Are toolbars still present? If so, right-click any toolbar and choose
Customze - Toolbars tab. Under Toolbars, is Menu Bar listed? Is it checked?
If it's not... can you click to check it, or is it "locked" against user
selection.

If this approach doesn't work, try selecting Menu Bar and clicking Reset.
Does that bring the menu bar back?

If not, then take a look here to see if the solutions offered work:
