Hi Office experts -

Using Office 97 and NT 4...

how can I create the Office Toolbar on my Desktop ?

Thanks, John
 
Hi John,

This should work...

1) Hit the "Windows" key and then "E" - this will bring up Explorer.

2) In Explorer, go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office.

3) In this directory, you should find a file called "Microsoft Office Shortcut Bar".

4) Right-click on this file, and select "Create Shortcut", which will produce a shortcut in the same folder.

5) Drag this newly created shortcut to the desktop.

6) Then, in Explorer, go to C:\WINNT\Profiles\All Users\Start Menu.

7) Drag the newly created shortcut from the Desktop to this Start Menu folder.

That should do it. Please advise as to how you make out.

Slight correction...

1) should read... HOLD DOWN the "Windows" key, and then hit "E" - to bring up Explorer.
