Default Picture toolbar seems to disappear in Word 2003...

Thanks again, Suzanne. I think I've figured out several possible
workarounds for this, of which i need use only the first. I have a free
shareware program called IrfanView which flips & saves images for me, which
is what i had been relying on the toolbar to do, and anyway the dialog box
still works, so i can still change sizes in Word. Think MS Paint may flip
images too... Being paranoid, i had considered uninstalling & reinstalling
Word, or since i must finally convert my file to PDF & do the finishing
touches in Acrobat, I had considered doing the photo work there. But with a
bit of luck none of this may be necessary... Thanks again!

VBA has nothing (much) to do with barcodes. VBA is Visual Basic for
Applications, the language used for macros.

Thanks for your reply, Suzanne! No, I am not using dual monitors. I
looked up VBA in Help & find it has to do with Barcodes, which I
associate with those black thingies on all purchased products, unless it
also has something to do with toolbars... From Help I have DLed
something called BarcodeFunctions.zip, & once i figure out where it DLed
to, I'll try to figure out more.... If anyone else knows something, I'd
love to hear it...

I'm hoping the toolbar will reappear as mysteriously as it vanished...

all the best to everyone!

Are you by any chance using dual monitors? Sometimes toolbars wander
offscreen. It may require some VBA (which someone else will have to
supply) to get it back where it belongs.

Suzanne or anyone, HELP!

My picture toolbar, which permits me to do so many things seems to have
disappeared in WORD 2003. When i go to View/ Toolbars, it is still
checked, but i just can't make it pop up, & i need it desperately.
When i right click on my documen, i get a box that allows me among
other things to "Hide Toolbar," & if i click it, it switches to "Show
Toolbar," but if i click that, nothing pops up.... Seems to me there
must be a simple explanation for this...

all the best!
