Hi Johnathen and thank you for your response.
Ironically, it is the opposite affect I am seeking. I am using a custom
control in vb.net that shows the toolbar (the picture icons) but does not
show the menu.
I generally have been able to use vba code to produce what I need in the
document (long story how I pulled that off) but I cannot seem to find the
word property to address the menu problem.
Is is possible that you are accidentally in full-screen mode? If so, set
ActiveWindow.View.FullScreen = False

No luck. I put that statement in and it did not do it and what is worse it
did not bomb either (I could get an exception and go from there once I know
what is wrong.) It just appeared to ignore the statement.
I screwed up the control somehow. ... :(
It is the only logical reason why the menu is not displaying I think. The
reason I think is that when I right click on the toolbar the "Customize"
option where I could go to click on the "Main Menu" it greyed out.
Things were sure easier with the Ole Container in vb6...

Johnathen,
Lets try this from another angle.
Can a user through vba add a command to appear in the toolbar that exists in
the menu such as the "Insert Footnote" command in the Reference menu.

G'day "scorpion53061" <scorpion_53061nospamhereplease@yahoo.com>,
You cant mod the dialog that appears. What you can do is REPLACE that
menu entry with a call to your own "Work-alike" dialog.

Do you mean insert something in the toolbar, or insert something in the
Insert Footnote dialog?
