Re: Word 2007 macro command buttons on toolbar

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

They will appear on the Add-Ins tab, but nowhere else.

So the way-cool custom toolbars I've developed over the years with macros
and obscure commands all go away if I upgrade to Word 2007? What about the
custom templates that have custom menus and toolbars that I've developed for
clients?? Does the whole freakin' world have to have training wheels that I
can't remove?? Over the years, they've given me the power to speed up my
work and now they're taking it away from me?<arggh>
