Is there a way to define which Word toolbar menustrips are presented when
opening a word doc in IE? For example can I have a Word doc open in IE with
the "Formatting" and "Standard" menustrips presented by default on the
toolbar?

If there is an answer to this, ideally I would want to do this from a web
page (these docs will be opened via a URL).
 
Hi Kevin,

I don't think you can do it from a web page. I think IE uses OLE (Object
Linking and Embeding) to display the word document within the Internet
Explorer_Server pane. There is a property for the Web Browser control to
'Navigate Menus', but I think that the users current word menu configuration
is used.

You could use a Word Macro to set the toolbar layout when a word doc is
opened, but you cant do that from a web page!

Regards.
