What particular version of Word are you trying to use, now? (Word 98
was available *only* for Apple computers, by the way.) If you're
talking about the operating system, Microsoft Word works exactly the
same, regardless of whether it's installed on a Win98 OS or a WinXP OS.

The particular feature you're seeking would still be found in Word's
menu: View > Toolbars > Customize...... Or you could just right-click
on the toolbar in question and select "Customize."

You're on a Windows XP newsgroup. Someone *may* help you with
your problem here, but you're much more likely to get the help
you're looking for if you would ask in a Word newsgroup.

And please use the subject line of your message for a succinct
description of your problem. Many people will simply pass over a
message with a subject like "help help help."

You can also fix your damned clock and/or calendar - you are in the UK, I am
in the UK and you're a day ahead of me!

Then start a new thread - this is nothing to do with the question the OP
posted!
