Undisciplined (Tiny) Toolbar Options (2003)

[Mark Forman / DRC, TRCT]

Hello...

When I open Word 2003 on my work machine...(my company has an archiving
database/free-standing server system known as 'DocStar')...& a small DocStar
Toolbar appears under my regular Toolbars...on a horizontal space all it's
own. I thought...OK, I'll just move it to the end of an existing Toolbar,
where it has enough space to squeeze in on the right (& thereby eliminating
the need for an almost empty horizontal space at the top of the
page...giving me more real estate for the documents themselves).

So I did.

But...it doesn't stay there after the program closes.

Next time I open Word...there it is again...all by itself.

How can I solve this one?

Thanks,

mark4man

Talk to the people who sell DocStar. They probably have something in their
startup code that puts the toolbar where _they_ think it should be, rather
than storing your preference and restoring it during startup.

It may be possible to write a macro that moves the toolbar where you want
it, but first see if you can get DocStar to do the right thing.
