Re: Word 2003 customized toolbar disappears.

Yes, I spent three hours on Friday after work trying to resolve this issue
with my computer. The articles assume that the software is working as it
should. I have added macros to my computer using the "record" and then adding
to tool bar for several years and it works just fine. As late as two weeks
ago it worked. As of 8/18 after some sort of update it does not. I read, I
fussed, I swore a little and then I posted a help me! The answer has to lie
somewhere in the update that my computer autodownloaded last week.
