Header/Footer Toolbar

[julie39]

When clicking View, Header and Footer, a toolbar with various options came up
such as SHOW PREVIOUS. Now the toolbar no longer comes up. It is not
hidden. When I access Tools, Customize, I cannot CHECK the header/footer
toolbar to display a green check mark. Reset does not work. Any ideas on
how to restore this built-in toolbar? Or where did it go??

Thanks

Hi Julie,

No guarantee, but try this:

Put the cursor in a header. Open the macro editor (Alt+F11) and open
the Immediate window there (Ctrl+G). Copy the following command and
paste it into the Immediate window:

ActiveDocument.CommandBars("Header and Footer").Visible = True

Press Enter, and see if the toolbar appears.

Open a document and go into Header / Footer view. If the toolbar does not
display then press Alt-F11. This brings up the vba editor. At the bottom of
the screen should be a window that says "Immediate Window." If it is not,
press Ctrl-G.

Type the following in the Immediate Window and press Enter:

Application.CommandBars("Header and Footer").Visible = True

Go back to the Word window. Can you see your toolbar? If not then go back to
the Immediate Window and add the following two statements:

Application.CommandBars("Header and Footer").Top = 394
Application.CommandBars("Header and Footer").Left = 152

Hope this helps.
