Office Toolbar

Win2000, Office 2000. I've just sat down in front of another computer at work and would like to have the Office toolbar appear on boot-up. However, I cannot find the customised toolbar or the way to get it to appear on startup.

Help! Anyone advise me please?

If you go to : Start > Run > type, msconfig > OK > Startup > then check the box next to 'Microsoft office Start Up' it should launch the tool bar next time you reboot. I have to say the first thing i do when I get to a different machine is disable the MS office toolbar.
Horses for courses . HTH.

Thanks KP. However, can't find msconfig on my C drive (used Win Explorer, no trace). Perhaps under another name?

Thumbs up

Try - Start/Programs/Microsoft Office Tools/Microsoft Office Shortcut Bar. This will start it and if you exit the bar, it will ask you if you want it to run automatically on start-up.

I'm the same config as you, Win 2K, Office 2K.

If I remember correctly the Office Tool Bar has to be installed as it is not by default. So try running Office setup again via Control Panel & add/remove programs.

Somewhere there will be the option to add the Office Shortcut Bar.

Sorry I can't be more specific as I've been using Office XP for quite sometime.

The following link my also help..

Microsoft Shortcut Bar

Cheers,

RFCC is RIGHT

Just follow his suggestion and the office short cut will configure, and then ask if you want it to launch automatically.

I do just the opposite and have dragged all the icons into the Start bar and have that float when needed - much easier and I get more uncluttered real-estate on LCD that way.
