THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP

I need to remove a Command Buttom from the Outlook 2002
Toolbar, that appears to be a default Button. I cannot
Move it, Remove it from the Toolbar or reformat it in any
way...it's untouchable (try it!) I need "this buttons
default space" for other things, BUT I CANNOT GET RID OF
IT!

PLEASE, CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO DELETE IT? (step by
step)

If your wondering if I can just leave the button there
and do some other work around, I CANNOT...IT HAS TO GO! I
NEED "THAT" SPACE.

***NOTE*** If you email me directly (which would be a big
help!) PLEASE PUT IN THE SUBJECT LINE: "RESPONSE TO YOUR
MS NEWSGROUP POSTING" so it will not be accidentally
deleted or filtered as SPAM.

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP
 
THAT WOULD HELP, WOULDN'T IT! DUH, SORRY! THE COMMAND
BUTTON IS: "Type a question for help" which, by default,
is in the Upper Right hand corner of the Outlook 2002
Standard Toolbar, and appears to be a default Button. I
can email you a .jpg screen shot of it, if needed.

Thanks again! Drew
 
Technically, it's not a menu or toolbar command. It cannot be removed.

Thanks for the reply, but what is it? Is it hard coded
into the program? If I can't "remove it" can I make it
smaller, or is there any other workaround to give me some
(if not all) the space it occupies? e.g. the button that
has a drop down window that has view options for
Messages, Messages with Auto Preview, Last 7 days, etc.,
can be "resized" or made not so wide , through the
customize window. Could I do that for this button
SOMEHOW? I need this space to put some other toolbar
command buttons.

Thanks again!
