Office Icon Toolbar

[Educator]

I realize this may be simple for those of you out there, however, I am going
NUTS! At the office, on my desktop, in the upper right hand corner, there is
a very small Office Toolbar with icons for the programs I use often. How in
the world can I create this for my desktop at home.

I can choose at work a button for Word, PowerPoint, Access, Excel, etc. can
anyone assist me?

The Office Shortcut Bar is included with Office XP and earlier
versions, but not with Office 2003. Which version do you have at
home? Assuming you have Office XP or earlier, you can install
the Office Shortcut Bar from your Office CD as follows:
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Double-click Add or Remove Programs.
3. Click your installation of Microsoft Office, then click
Change. <The setup wizard starts.>
4. Click Add or Remove Features, and then click Next.
5. Expand Office Tools.
6. Click the symbol next to Microsoft Office Shortcut Bar,
and then click Run from My Computer.
7. Click Update, and then click OK.

Rclick on the task bar and pick Toolbars, Quick Launch. You may drag and
place it where you want, and copy shortcuts from the start menu to it.

No wonder I am going NUTS! I have Office 2003, any suggestions for that
minor set back?
