Default Word Clipboard Toolbar Always Docks Itself

Windows Explorer (Windows XP) Windows Vista Explorer (Vista) and Internet
Explorer all have an address bar and will work just the same. They are
merely access points into the Windows filing system.

It should stay where you left it (and certainly does in later Word
versions) however try the following.

Open the Normal template. If you have not changed the default user
template folder, you will find the template in the folder
%appdata%\Microsoft\Templates

Enter or copy the above into the Explorer address bar.

Move the toolbar to where you want it. Add a character to the text
space and delete it. Save and close the template.

Close and re-open Word. Is the toolbar now where you left it?
