I could never recover the bar, but I was able to build a new one under the customize. Thanks for everyone's efforts! :)

I hope all have a great Christmas. FYI Remember there really are 12 days of Christmas. Dec 25-Jan 6th!
 
Changing the display did not work, But now I know how to change it.


QUESTION: IF I reinstall my Office program, will I lose my current documents?

1. Darn! I hoped that would do it. I had the same issue with the top of Word Help and Excel Help disappearing under the Menu Bar. That trick worked for me.

2. No, your files will remain in the folders they reside in now.

Edit: Oops! I didn't see that there was a page 2 (for me anyway) - replied to the last post on page 1, as it turns out.
