hello, i loved having the office shortcut bar on the desktop, but it has somehow disappeared. i did a system resore to two days ago(i had it then) for other reasons, it has gone. I looked everywhere i could think of. I did find the folder for it in the office folder, but i am not sure what to do to have it appear in it's usual form. any ideas. Is there an exe i should be looking for. I didn;t see one in the folder, just the shortcuts i had placed on it. ktj --------------------------------- Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject line.
