I just love it when someone asks a reasonable question and one of the
"literati", often one of the "MVPs", tells them that they don't need
or shouldn't want what they just asked for.

Don't you also just love it when someone posting under a clown's name
decides to chime in from time to time with nothing to offer but a cheap pot
shot at another contributor? I do.

The OP can downloaed the ClassicUI template he

OTOH. if you transpose the "L" and the "M" in the name "Lurfys Maw" you
get something rather more interesting.

Cheap pot shot? So I take it you found JoAnn's "contribution" helpful,
right?

See, now that's helpful. It's also what the OP asked for. He didn't
ask for a critique on how he likes to work. If JoAnn likes the QAT,
fine. So do I, actually. But the OP said it doesn't meet his needs. He
wants the classic menus. Why belittle his request?

If that were the only case, I wouldn't have said anything. But it
happens all the time here.

Are you inquiring on behalf of the clown or is this he?

Type Lurfys Maw into Google and see the results. Obviously a troll.

It was not to belittle. It was to further explore what his issues were.
Perhaps by giving us more information, we could have provided him with some
sort of resolution.

I didn't realize that I was supposed to allow you to review my responses
before hitting Send.

FWIW: To me, it is just one of the best features in Excel or Word. I use
those 2 programs the most.
I haven't gotten around to PowerPoint.
I like moving the quick access toolbar below the ribbon and being able to
move the icons to where I want them on the toolbar.
Yes, it is convenient.
Just a thought!!!!

I didn't realise that you couldn't add custom menu and options to a
Word 2007 template. I'm astounded you can't.

My problem it have I've moved from Word 2003 to 2007. In my template,
I originally created custom menus for use in Word 2003. In 2007, there
are still there, albeit now on the Custom Toolbars section of the the
Add-Ins ribbon. Is there any way to add/modify/delete these options?
