Hi, I guess what you meant by icon is an Add-In to the MS Word "Added Toolbar with icons". Ok, if this your question, then you can use the VB to create an Add-In toolbar which can be deployed and installed later on to be part of MS Word Add-Ins. You might need to try this with Visual Basic | New Project | Add-In. Regards, ShadiK. Shadi Al-Kahwaji
