Office won't remember menu customizations
I installed Office 2003 and I tried to customize the menus but it won't
remember the settings and every time I start one of the applications, the menu icons have all reverted to the default setup. I had this same program working fine before, but since I reformatted and reistalled everything it has not worked. Is there a preferences file that I can delete and let it rebuild itself? I have tried to repair the Office installation twice and even uninstalled and reinstalled the Word component but it made no difference. If I uninstall the entire program and reinstall it, will I also lose the activation or will the computer remember it? Can anyone please advise on what may be wrong? Thanks for any advice. |

Do you have Adobe Acrobat installed? It has an add-in for Word that is known
to discard your personal preferences upon exiting Word. Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.
