Symbol on Toolbar

[Guest]

I have a "Symbol" toolbar in one of my templates and wonder if there is an
easy way to put the symbol image on the toolbar rather than having to draw
it? I have created the symbols as autotext but am not sure how to copy the
image onto the toolbar. For instance: greater/equal to.....less/equal to,
etc.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Beth,

- Copy the image you want to the clipboard (you may want to take it from a
screendump: Print Scrn | paste in Paint)
- Tools | Customize... | rightclick the button and choose Paste Button
Image. Works best with images that are 16x16 pixels.

Good luck,
Cooz

Ohhh I'm sorry for being so stupid.... I don't know how to copy to the
clipboard and paste while I'm in the "customize" mode of the template.
Here's what I tried: Hilighted the symbol, pasted it in the clipboard, back
into template - view, toolbars, customize, right clicked on the autotext and
"Paste button image" was greyed out. Am I totally out to lunch here?

Thank you for your quick assistance - your website it's so amazing.

Hi Beth,

You probably did not copy correctly.
- Have the symbol visible on your screen
- Press the PrintScrn button
- Open Paint (Start | All Programs | Accessories | Paint)
- Press Ctrl-V
- Edit the screendump in such a way that _only_ the symbol remains.
- Press Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C to select it and copy it to the clipboard.
- In Word: Tools | Customize... | rightclick the button and choose Paste
Button Image. Works best with images that are 16x16 pixels.

Good luck,
Cooz
