If I enable the Reviewing toolbar it will not remain on after closing &
reopening Word. I see it for a moment, and then it disappears. I have
disabled all my startup items, but it still happens - I'm *thinking* this
has something to do with Acrobat 7 PDF Creator buttons. After removing this
feature from Acrobat, the Reviewing Toolbar stays open. This is not really
an ideal solution and I'm hoping there might be another way to fix this
problem.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

You might be able to force it to remain turned on with a macro but
typically if an add-in is found to be the cause of an issue the best
way to correct the problem is to remove the offending add-in -
especially the Adobe add-in. All of their recent add-ins have causes
some type of problem. The version you are using (7) discards any
changes you've made to Normal.dot. IOW, if you add a new AutoText
entry or make other customization they will not be saved unless you
hold Shift and use File/Close All. Their "sound" reasoning behind this
is their add-in modifies Normal.dot each time Word starts so instead
of creating a proper add-in that doesn't exhibit this behavior they
elected to discard all changes - tells you a little something about
the developer...
