More info?)
The office shortcut bars shortcuts are actually stored in a folder but I
can't remember where its stored. You will have to search for it. I remember
when I used office xp that i would delete the shortcuts from the folder and
either reselect them via the shortcut bar or use the browse feature of the
bar to browse to the location of the stored shortcuts and select them. I
cant remember if I used this to fix broken icons but it is another piece of
information to help fix it when things go wrong.
