Word 2001 Customize Toolbars

[Mike Durney]

I want to remove the far-right icon on the Ribbon in Word 2001 for
Mac. This icon allows users to reset and customize the toolbar. For
my high school lab setting, I want to prevent any changes to the
toolbars as customized.

One way would be to run this macro:

Public Sub ProtectStandardToolbar()
Application.CommandBars("Standard").Protection = msoBarNoCustomize
End Sub

Close XL to save the setting in the

System Folderreferences:Microsoft:Excel Toolbars (9)

file. If you have a startup addin, I'd call that macro from the add-in's
Workbook_Open() event.

Whoops - shouldn't open a message, go back to work, then come back to
the message - I forget which newsgroup I'm in.


The solution is the same, but you should close WORD so that the setting
is saved in the *Normal template*.

If you have an add-in, call the macro from the AutoExec macro
