How do I remove the quick access toolbar when I right click?

Basically I'd just like to know if there's a way to disable the quick access
toolbar whenever I right click in the document. I didn't find any options in
Word to do that.
 
Right-clicking in the document doesn't have any affect on the Quick Access
Toolbar (QAT). The QAT is the set of tools you see [by default] above the
ribbon (you can right-click the QAT and choose to display it below the
ribbon, too).

From your question, my guess is that you're referring to the Mini Toolbar,
rather than to the Quick Access Toolbar.

When you right-click in a document, you see the Mini Toolbar and the context
menu. The Mini Toolbar [by default] displays when you select text, as well
as when you right-click in a document. You can turn off its automatic
display when text is selected, but you cannot prevent it from displaying
when you right-click in a document.

The only control for the Mini Toolbar is found in the Popular settings tab
in Word Options (Office button, Word Options, Popular tab). That option lets
you suppress the automatic display when text is first selected.
 
I haven't yet found it in the UI but, in VBA, you can switch off the Mini
Toolbar on right click with:

Options.ShowSelectionFloatie = Flase

said

Options.ShowMenuFloaties = False

PS... to create a toggle, replace that line with:

Options.ShowMenuFloaties = Not (Options.ShowMenuFloaties)
