I am currently using Word 2002 on a Windows XP system. I
would like to start word and have the outline toolbar
present. Every time I enable the toolbar and exit word, it
is no longer present when I reopen word. I tried opening
the normal.dot and saving it with the toolbar in place and
this does not seem to help. Any suggestions?
TIA

The following two macros should do the trick. Make sure you store them
in the normal.dot template.

Sub AutoOpen
ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdOutlineView
CommandBars("Outlining").Enabled = True
CommandBars("Outlining").Visible = True
End Sub

Sub AutoNew
ActiveWindow.View.Type = wdOutlineView
CommandBars("Outlining").Enabled = True
CommandBars("Outlining").Visible = True
End Sub
