Default Macro - Stop Recording toolbar

I click on toolsmacrorecord new macro and the record macro dialogue box
appears. According to this link http://tinyurl.com/l6xze, when I finish
inputting the info into the dialogue box and click ok, the Stop Recording
toolbar should appear on the screen. But this is not the case for me. What
settings should I change to allow this to happen?

I know alternately I can do viewtoolbarsVisual Basics.

Please advise.

Epinn,

Start the macro recorder for a new macro.

Go to ToolsCustomizeToolbars and check the Stop Recording box.

When you stop recording, make sure you click the Stop button, not the X.

Default Macro - Stop Recording toolbar

Thanks, Bob. This is really interesting. For Word 2003 and PowerPoint
2003, the stop recording toolbar automatically displays and there is NOT a
box to tick under ToolsCustomizeToolbars. Don't have a clue why things
are like this. Just glad that the toolbar appears now for Excel 2003.

Regards,

Epinn

Now that you've clicked that, doesn't it appear the next time you need it ?

Yes, it is working the way I expect it to work, same as Word. Thank you for
asking.

As I said, with Word I didn't have to click the box (well, there is no box
to click anyway), even for the **first** time of use. Something
unexplainable? Won't worry about it.
