Hello to everyone!

Is there a solution in vba, to display or not the recording command in the header of Word 365. I'm talking about the little icon selectable in File > Option > General > checkbox "Show save commands in application header"?



Best regards,
David

When you say, 'Is there a solution in VBA?':
1. do you want a VBA solution to place the button in the QAT or
2. do you want the name of the button to add to the QAT so you can record VBA?

The button shows up in the File > Options > Quick Access Toolbar > All Commands and is called Record Macro / Stop Recorder

That’s not what the OP means. By “the recording command” they’re referring to the AutoSave button.

AFAIK there isn’t anything in the object model to hide that button, though IIRC there is a registry hack to disable it.

Hello Guessed,

If you want, I have a .dotm template that handles saving documents via its own "Save" button. This allows you to format the name of the documents at the first save, as a "draft version" with a watermark, then at the end of a shared review process, save them as a "final version" to publish and archive them.

During this first recording the user must not click on the little icon in the QAT, otherwise vba puts its nose in there and opens its own recording window to save the doc, with a name of its own...

My problem is that I can't manage, in the DocumentBeforeSave (...) procedure, to prevent word from opening its own save window!

So how can we avoid displaying the little save icon of the QAT, as long as the user has not used the "Save" button of the template, integrated in its tab.

If this is not possible, I will manage it differently.

Sincerely,
David

Thanks for your answer too, Italophile!
If it's not possible, I'll manage this problem differently by asking the user to rename the document, by clicking on the "Save" button of the custom tab.
Have a nice evening,
David

The Save button does not provide for renaming. It saves to the same file, name and location. This is if it is the Save command.



Perhaps you should be using a Template instead of a document?
