Making large icons permanent

Guest

I set the icons on the toolbars in Word to be large, but when I exit the program and later reopen Word the icons have been reset to small. How can I make the large icons the default form? Thanks.

Did you save normal.dot on closing?
Sometimes options are overridden by circumstances - eg by add-ins. In this
case, you can either put a toolbar button on the toolbar to add the
following macro

Sub Large_Icons()
With CommandBars
..LargeButtons = Not .LargeButtons
End With
End Sub

which will toggle the large button display on/off or you could add the line

CommandBars.LargeButtons = True

to an autoexec macro which will run when you start Word
