2007: Assign macro to keyboard & add icon to toolbar "tcebob" <handle [ at ] gwi.net> 30.07.2006 23:19:41 I saw with pleasure that 2007 imported my 2003 macros. I need to create a keyboard shortcut for several of them and also add an icon to a toolbar. Help is hopeless, or I'm looking in the wrong place. rs

Re: 2007: Assign macro to keyboard & add icon to toolbar Jay Freedman <jay.freedman[ at ]verizon.net> 31.07.2006 02:02:13 For the keyboard shortcut, click the Office icon (the File menu) and Word Options. In the Customization tab, click the Keyboard Shortcuts Customize button at the bottom. From there it works the same as 2003. If you had a button on a toolbar in the 2003 template and you brought that template into 2007, you'll find the button in the Custom Toolbars group on the Add-Ins ribbon. If you need a new button, it'll have to go on the Quick Access Toolbar. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

I didn't find any of my icons on the Add-ins tab, only Avery Wiz and PDF Converter. Selection of icons in customization is pretty limited. How can I add more or call in another library? rs

Word 2007 discards those when it loads the template. If you can, go back to 2003 and create a new toolbar, put your buttons on it, and then bring that into 2007. By comparison with 2003, Word 2007 has all the customizability of a hockey puck. There is no button image editor, no icon import facility, no user-defined toolbars, zip, nada.
