GROUP ON WORDBAR

Z

Word 2000 please. You know how easy it is to create a group on the
outlook2000 bar - simply place cursor on gray outlook bar and create new
group. Then to get folders into the group, simply drag them accross. And if
you have many groups, you can make the bands smaller to get more showing on
the outlook bar?

Well is there a similar sort of thing in Word? I mean on my wordbar, if I
may call it that, when I open it, I see 'History,My Documents,Desktop,
Favorites and Web Folders'. It seems a shame to me that stuff that I never
use from Word accessing like Favorites (because I open explorer and go in to
it from there), and Web Folders (because I do not have any) should take up
what I consider usefull space.

How much better if I could go in to directory marked AAB for instance,
where I have a lot of my own progs.
Sure they are word documents, and I suppose the way the program is designed,
is that you would store your separate word files in a folder opened up
under My Documents. But supposing like me, you had your own programs and
they were all under AAB (and you liked them in one place, because you knew
where they all were for backup) How much easier to open on to the gray, and
click on AAB to get where you want?

I have been wondering whether this is not possible because the groups are in
fact different types of files - for instance favorites as opposed to
documents, but suppose I had a whole lot of other prog file types that I
used like power point - why waste a group on WebFolders when you could be
clicking on Power point.

I suppose you might say ' well if you go to ie to get to favorites, then why
are you worrying about getting to power point from word - why dont you just
go into power point. The reason is that the AAB files are in fact word
files, and I am working in word.exe, and would like to have it centralised
from that point of view.

All I am saying is that the functionality that is there is wasted on me, and
if it could be utilised, so much the better. I hope I have explained myself
sufficiently. I dont suppose you get these type of questions ordinarily,
because people use the programs the way microsoft intended. It is just that
I have come from a different direction that I ask these peculiar questions,
and if you have an answer, I would be MOST grateful.
