Standard toolbar
Is there a way in Office products, Word 2010 and Excel 2010, in particular, to bring up the standard toolbar that I used to have in Office XP? I want to do this to use the My Places bar. Thanks.

You can buy a toolbar converter Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 - Shows Classic Menus and Toolbars of 2003 on Ribbon or why not get Office 2003 if you like Office XP interface. (you can run them side by side) | | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop

gogreen, do you mean the toolbar that floated on the desktop ?
if so, you can add the shortcuts to a folder, and add that folder as a new toolbar, on the bar next to the open applications (as in language bar etc..)
or you can try many free programs that offer it, as in "stardock" | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number dell studio xps 1640

i think they took it out in 2003, but for sure in the 2007 version.
the above are the work arounds.
i saw a while ago a registry hack that allowed you to put it back, but i don't recall where i saw it. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number dell studio xps 1640

Too bad. The My Places Bar was an excellent time-saver. Now I have to wade through all sorts of file hierarchy to get to where I want to go. Can I customize the ribbon to achieve something similar? Thanks. | | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop
