I have a .dot in my startup that has a new menu with two menu items.  The
first menu item has a popup menu with 5 different menu items.  Each item runs
a macro to enable different toolbars for different types of office staff.  
The second menu item is the same toolbar control as View/Toolbars.  This
template works great in Word 97 but in Word 2000 and 2003 the second menu
item (&Toolbars) does seem to work correctly in the New Menu. It does work
correctly in it's original location View/Toolbars or if I right click on any
toolbar. I get the correct toolbar choices. I have recreated this manually
via Tools /Customize and it still doesn't seem to work after I save and
reopen the template. Is there something I am forgetting to do?   I have even
tried to create this with VBA to the point of copying and adding the &Toolbar
to the new command bar popup control.  I am stumped with the copy and move
command bar control.  I am running Windows 2K.  I have the full version of
Acrobat 5 and only Acrobat Reader 7.  I have checked my startup and only my
template is there.  Nothing is identified in the Tools/Templates and Add-Ins.
I have made sure that in the Visula Basic Editor Tools/References have the
Microsoft Office and Word 9 and 11 Object Libraries checked.

TIA

The issue is probably a conflict with Acrobat's add-in, which is normally
installed in the Office start-up (rather than the Word start-up) folder. You
could move the add-in to the alternative start-up and rename it so that it
loads either before or after the Adobe add-in - whichever works better. See
http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adobe_acrobat_toolbar.htm for  some toolbar
control ideas.
