Placing the Button on Your Toolbar

  • Select Tools > Customize.

  • In the control panel that appears, click the Commands tab. You should see a box labeled Categories on the left and a box labeled Commands on the right.
  • Scroll down in the left-hand box until you see the item Macros. Click on it once to highlight it.
  • Scroll down in the right-hand box until you see the item Normal.APSbutton.APStoolkit.
  • What if there is no item called Normal.APSbutton.APStoolkit in the right-hand box? This means the button code is not installed. Click Close. Follow the instructions for installing the button code, then come back and follow these instructions again.

  • Click on this item and drag it up to your menu bar. A black, vertical line will appear beneath your cursor, showing you where the button will be inserted when you let go of the mouse button. I usually put it in the upper menubar, just to the right of the Help button. 
  • Let go of the mouse button. You should now have a big, unweildy button labeled Normal.APSbutton.APStoolkit in your menubar.
  • Right click on this button. Click on the field labeled Name, delete the text in that field and type in "APS." Then press Enter.

  • Back in the Customize control panel, click Close.
