I click on any of the categories (File, Edit, View, Tools or Help), instead of getting my dropdown menu I get a trasparent square. If I drage my mouse down, then the titles appear but you can see the screen under them. The same thing happens on Outlook Express. (I have Windows XP). The only one that shows the regular dropdown menus is Favorites. This just started today. Has anyone had a similar thing happen or know what to do about it? Thanks.

I would, but I cannot get a Toolbar
of any kind to come up. Just the horizontal and vertical rulers.
Thanks for the suggestion, tho!!
toolbar
In the right hand corner, there is an icon called *tools*. Click on that and a drop down box will open with *toolbars* in it. I have not tried it myself, but there should be something in there to get what you are looking for. Also the *customize* button. Good luck. hope it works for you!.
toolbar
just figured it out! yeah!!
Toolbar
Go into view, toolbar and see which ones are highlighted and then you can hit which ones you want. I use standard and formatting for mine. that does give two lines but it is what I use. Hope that this helps.
Once I get top toolbar set up how I want it,

Just look at your toolbar..it has left, right, and

Do you have a customized toolbar?
Is this a situation where you can set one up? If so, go to View, Toolbars, then to the Toolbars tab and click "new." Name it whatever you want (I just use my first name) and then click the Commands tab and drag the icons you choose over to your new toolbar.
The reason I am saying all this is that I have a Bullets and Numbering icon on my toolbar, so whenever the numbering starts messing up, I can highlight the area where I want the numbering to be, click on the Bullets and Numbering icon, and fix it - quick and easy.
Plus I can put only the icons I use most on the toolbar and not have all those I don't want. Speeds things up a lot when I don't have to sort through a bunch of icons to find what I want.
Toolbar in what program?

You set up that on your toolbar using Word? (m)
Any chance you could tell me how? I'm not that savvy, lol. I appreciate the help!
Floating Toolbar
I had to try around with a few different things but I think I went to Microsoft Office Word Help and followed the directions for "create a custom toolbar"
On the toolbar there is this rectangle with
the percentage mark. Make sure that it is set on 100%. This determines the size of the text.
Tell me if it worked, thanks.
I used to have a free little toolbar that I downloaded and
there was also a website where you could sort the feedback of ebay users. I deleted it because I'm just not into ebay as much as I used to be. However, if you check Google or Download.com, you ought to be able to find something. GutCheck is one of them, but I've never used it.
I typed the following into Google to find GutCheck.
ebay sort negative feedback
And "ebay feedback" without quotes at download.com to find BayCheck.
HELP. My husband screwed up my toolbar
how do i get it back down where it used to be? The start menu, etc.
Look at View/Toolbar -- and over to the side of that is a SM
dropdown menu that should have some things checked on it. If you can't see "view" then do alt+v and see if that works.
Pull Down "View" on Toolbar.
Then hit Zoom.
on toolbar, click view
then uncheck ruler
on the toolbar, next to the Bold button
There should be a little box with a number in it and a little black arrow. If you click on the arrow, it will bring up a bunch of font sizes. I would pick 12 as it is a standard size for printing. Hope that helps.

Line count is not on my toolbar.
I stand corrected. I had no idea it was on the Tools menu; I have always used a separate line counting program OR the Properties under the File menu. Also, my Tools menu is condensed most of the time and I had not noticed Word Count on there before. "Look before you leap."

Toolbar in Work Queue
Does anyone know what the expanded toolbar is in the work queue? It has about 7 icons at the top instead of 3?
Lost toolbar on Internet Explorer
Can anyone tell me how to restore the tool bar with the buttons such as home page, refresh, go back arrow, forward arrow? I know that there are other buttons on there but those are the few that I use most often and can remember. My guess is that something has been inadvertantly turned "off" but I don't know where to look for it.

Technical help please......
I work in Word 2003 and am needing to make headers in some of my reports with the following information (page #, patient name, date and report type). My problem is that the page number stays the same (#2) for all pages and when I go into change it all pages change. I know there is something with "sections" and all that, but I'm just not getting it to work. How can I make a header with the numbers to change from page 2 to page 3 and so on? Thanks for the help guys!
Technical help
I'm really lousy in the technical department and I just got a message on my computer that my local C disc space is almost full. I'm thinking I need to empty my recycle bin, but not sure. It is quite full, as I type the reports in Word and send through Outlook Express. Is that what this means? Any help is greatly appreciated.
No, no technical available. Need to have something set up by sm
late fall. Thanks for the help.
Get a Google Toolbar, description and link enclosed
I have a Google search toolbar at the top of my browser. It's a small line like the address bar but it says Google beside it and I just type in my searches there instead of going to Google first, etc. I've found it very easy to use. Of course, as with anything there are extra parts to the program, I just added the basic tool bar and went to options and only kept the parts of it that I wanted on my toolbar. It makes searching a whole lot easier, all I need to do is bring up the internet and my search is at the top.
Mentioned below, zoom in over 100% on your toolbar won't change print nm

In the technical world
the quality of the parts that comprise one computer is no longer a deciding factor, because they are all designed and manufactured by only a few companies that are world class manufacturers. It's the service that counts. If you get good service (including after sales service) then go for that company. Check, too, the available hardware that are offered in both companies that you are considering. If the local co. has everything that Dell or Gateway has to offer and also give you good service, then go for the local.
I bought mine from Best Buy and gets good service from the pc manufacturer.

MS word technical help
I type on ExText using MS word 97, and starting yesterday the spellchecker keeps picking up the words "as" and "is" as misspelled words. I even checked MS Word outside of the ExText forum, and it still picks out these 2 words. I keep hitting "add" to add the words so they will not keep coming up, but every time I start a new document, back it comes. Anyone with any ideas on how to permanently add these to my spellchecker so I don't have to keep dealing with this? thanks!
I have a technical question
I'm thinking about getting a new computer, and I think I recall seeing that a lot of companies' platforms aren't compatible with Windows Vista. Is this true, and if so, what do you do in that case. Cause it's not like you can buy a new computer with an old Windows system on. What do you do in this case?
that would be technical - normally I can spell!

Got a technical question, not MT related
I have a priceless message, left by my son, on my digital phone/answering machine, and am wondering if anyone here would know how I can transfer it to the computer so I can share it (and delete it from the phone).

Long ops are the best! I love the technical

Technical help, please- buffer overload?
Going along today and computer decided to show me a buffer overload, not able to do anything at all, said something overloaded. Anyone know what this means and how to get rid of it?
