Pagemaker is overwriting my Template menu - why?

[Guest]

I have a .dot in my Startup directory (on a network drive), but when I
install Adobe Pagemaker, the Adobe menu makes my menu disappear. The
Adobe.dot is in the C:\Program Files...\Startup directory, not the one in
Tools-Options-File Locations, so is there a priority to Startup directories
or what?

Adobe's add-ins are frequent causes of problems with Word and can tend to
cause personal menus disappear. First thing to check is that the add-in is
suitable for your version of Word. If not and there is no update remove it.
Do you actually need it?
See http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adobe_acrobat_toolbar.htm which explains
some of the issues involved with another of Adobe's errant add-ins. The
Pagemaker add-in can almost certainly be handled in the same way.
