Save toolbar customizations on exit

[Guest]

Each time I exit and then re-launch Outlook 2003, I
must "re-customize" the toolbars--the "settings" I made
are not "saved". How do I save the toolbar
customizations, so that I don't have to do this each time
I open Outlook?

Try renaming your outcmd.dat file to outcmd.old while Outlook is closed.
Outlook will rebuild the default toolbars the next time you open it. If
your changes to the toolbars "stick" after doing this, then you know it was
the outcmd.dat file causing the problem. Make sure to make a backup of the
new outcmd.dat file so you can restore it if you ever run into the same
problem again.

Note: If you're using Windows 2000 or XP, you'll need to search in hidden
and system folders to find the outcmd.dat file.
