Office Assistant

[Mary Ann]

I want to keep the Office Assistant open all the time. I
have him tamed to only react when I specifically ask a
question. My problem is, I move him up to the tools bars
so he is not on my document but I can't seem to make him
stay there - every time I open Word, he pops up in the
middle of my right margin and I have to move him. Is
there a way to make him open in the same spot each time?

Hi, Mary Ann,

Put this macro into Normal.dot (see
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/MacrosVBA/CreateAMacro.htm for instructions)
and edit the numbers to suit your screen resolution.

Sub AutoExec()
With Application.Assistant
.Visible = True
.Top = 30 ' pixels
.Left = 900
End With
End Sub
