From: Shuggles on 1 Jun 2010 15:59 Hi, I created a custom toolbar in a template and it seems it is tied to the template only. I want to copy or port this toolbar into another template. I've tried "templates & add-ins" but, obviously, can't figure it out so I came here. Thanks
From: Suzanne S. Barnhill on 1 Jun 2010 16:21 If you save the toolbar in Normal.dot, it will be available to all documents. Or you can save the template in which it is saved in Word's Startup folder, where it will become a "global" template, and the toolbar will be available to all documents. -- Suzanne S.

Does this apply to all versions of Word or only the most recent one(s)? And where is the Startup folder? -- Bob http://www.kanyak.com

It applies to all versions of Word. The path to the Startup folder is given in the File Locations (in Word 2003 and earlier, this is on the File Locations tab of Tools | Options). Global templates are explained at http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/WhatTemplatesStore.htm -- Suzanne S.
