Alex,

I think that's the official name. If it isn't I hope that someone will step in and set me straight.

>>As for it being a Windows thing, are you using Office 97 or 2000? My setup of 2000 has so many buttons I can't test that. I doesn't work with IE 5.0 and since the interface...Well, I'm not sure it works there.

>I'm using word, excel, and access 95, and access 97. Word and acc97 have the behavior. IE5 seems to have "different" toolbars, yet you can right-click on them and you get the context menu.

Doesn't surprise me that it works in those versions too.

>IE's toolbars are more like the shortcut bar on the taskbar in win98. Oh yeah, I remember bgates saying something about ie being an integral part of the OS. (that's like saying that my beard is an integral part of my being... sigh... so much bs in so little time...) ;-)

You mean your beard isn't an integral part of your being?:-) I've had mine for nearly 30 years. Of course, the current pic (whoops, that subject again) shows it as a full beard. Right now, it's just a goatee.
