Microsoft Office Tool Bar



Where is the option to place the Tool Bar permanently on the Desktop?
Currently, the bar disappears when the Computer is turned off and I have to
use the Start Menu to place the MS Office bar on the Desktop, every time I
start the computer.

Which version of office is it?

Hi P.,

The program that runs the Office Shortcut Bar (OSB) (Office XP/2002 and earlier) is MSOffice.exe which you should be able to use
from Start=>Run and then select the answer from the dialog that comes up that you want it to start when you start the PC. What that
in turn does is create a switch in the command line of the Office Startup Assistant (OSA.exe) to include starting the Office
Shortcut Bar. In Start=>Programs=>Startup, you should see, after completing the steps above, the Office Startup Assistant there.

Note that one of the reasons that the Office shortcut bar was no longer included, starting with Office 2003 is that it, like other
programs want to be 'on top' and the OSB didn't always 'win' (i.e. it could disappear, locked behind another utility).
