Toolbars - Ugh!

[Jeremy]

How do I save the layout of the tooldars in olk 2003? I am not using any
third party addins at all. Every time I open up outlook the stupid archive
toolbar is in the window. I don't want that there. Is this really not
possible to do?

See if deleting the file 'outcmd.dat' fixes that.

It deletes your settngs for the toolbars. After that you have to create ie
new.

The file is here:
C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook

Maybe I'm not understanding what I need to do. I have found and deleted the
file, then closed and reopened outlook and the archive toolbar is still
there. I have deleted the .dat file while olk was open and closed.

what am I doing wrong?

Which Archive toolbar where? That is not a default toolbar of Outlook so
you've either created it manually or is being added by a 3rd party addin you
didn't realize you had.

To answer your other question; outcmd.dat needs to be renamed when Outlook
is closed (verify in Task Manager that the outlook.exe process has indeed
stopped before renaming)

I just talked to my corporate IR people and it looks like they have added
this to my computer. I am not able to change the loading location. It looks
like I will have to take it off everytime I open outlook.

Thanks
