Office 2007 features a new toolbar in all applications, called the Quick Access Toolbar.
A user may add or remove their own buttons.
By default, the .qat files containing the user’s settings are saved in the following location in Windows XP or Windows Server 2003:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Office
And for Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 in:
C:\Users\usernameAppData\Local\Microsoft\Office
Here’s how to make sure this bar roams with the user:
Locate and then click to select the following registry subkey:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Toolbars
If you use policies, select the following registry subkey:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Toolbars
New DWORD value called “QuickAccessToolbarRoaming” with value “1”
regfile:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Toolbars] "QuickAccessToolbarRoaming"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common\Toolbars] "QuickAccessToolbarRoaming"=dword:00000001
