Office Icons - tweaking and saving - Is that possible?

[Vincent]

The icons provided when installing Office leave, shall we say "something

left to whish for" ... Which leaves me with the task of editing them. I make

several toolbars, global and local, full of macros, each one with a separate

icon (no text - takes to much space). In order to successfully separate these

icons I need to make if not unique at least different. It’s tedious and

mundane, but once done - I'm happy again. That is until the computer

crashes...



Is there not a program, or something, that lets me save and by all means,

retrieve these icons?



I use the 03 version...

 

[DL]

the outcmd.dat file stores toolbar & menu settings.

Like most of outlook data files it can simply be saved/copied to another

location (all with outlook closed)
