I don't live in the news groups and do take time out for a personal life.
Sorry if you did not get the speedy response that you expected.
Using the Office Update automatic check for updates, when the resulting list
of updates appear and you have several for Office XP, "uncheck the boxes for
Office XP updates."
Is that clear enough? BTW. my name is spelled Milly, not Millie.

| For all those who are interested in this thread:
||
|| There is one significant issue with installing Office XP over an
|| Office 2003 installation (to regain the Shortcut Bar) as explained in
|| this Thread above.
||
|| The issue is: When one goes to Office Update, Office XP is
|| recognized!
||
|| Therefore Office 2003 can not be updated
|
|
|
|| You're right in that the toolbar is missing from Office 2003;
|| however, Millie Staples gave the following directions for installing
|| the toolbar, from another Office version, in a previous response.
|| Perhaps the same directions would apply to Office 2000 as well:
||
||
|| Use Office XP installation disk, select a custom installation, make
|| everything UNavailable, scroll down to the Office Tools section and
|| expand that. Select the Office Shortcut bar and okay out. This
|| will install JUST the Office Shortcut Bar.
|
| Yes 37MB of Shortcut-Only files. After which, MS Update saw only
| Office XP therefore Office 2003 could not be updated. Proceed with
| caution.
||
||
||
|| ||| I've just started using Office 2003, and am looking for a button I
||| used to
|| have in 2000. On the old office toolbar that could be located on
|| the right side of the screen, there was a button that looked like a
|| window with a shade partially pulled down. Clicking this button
|| would make the screensaver immediately go on. You would have to
|| enter in the password to unlock it. I have been told that this
|| toolbar is no longer available, but I am wondering if somehow this
|| button, or something simular to it is?
||| Thank you Thank you!
