Do you hate Office's collapsible toolbars as much as I do?

Every time I want a button, I have to click on dropdown arrows and find the darn thing!

Why does Microsoft consider this an improvement? (They obviously do because they added the same feature to Windows XP/2K & ME!)

Well....in Office 2K/XP/2K3, there ARE ways to get the toolbars back to the way they were in Office 97:

• Go into any of the Office programs (if you fix it in one, it's fixed in all of them):

• Go to the Tools Menu and select "Customize".

• In this box, click on the "Options" tab

  • In 2K, take the checks out of the two boxes that say "Standard and Formatting Toolbars Share One Row" and "Menus Show Recently Used Commands First"

  • In XP and 2K3, add checks to "Show Standard and Formatting toolbars on two rows" and "Always show full menus"

• POOF!!....BACK TO THE WAY I LIKE 'EM!!

Hmmmm ... now how about that pesky Office Assistant, Clippy?
