Question Automatically adding multiple icons to the “Quick Access Toolbar” in one go,

Automatically adding multiple icons to the “Quick Access Toolbar” in one go,

I’m wondering if there is a way to automatically add a number of icons on the toolbar in one go.

The approach that I follow to add them separately is (screenshots are attached):

1. The codes are saved in txt files

2. A module is created on the Normal template and the code is copied from the txt file and pasted to the module

3. The command is added from options|macros|Add


What if I have multiple txt files that contain codes and these codes are required to be stored in modules to be later added on the access toolbar

Is there a way to do this in one go?


Thank you

Best

Jamal

You could probably add them via a macro, but your list looks to be too long for practical use.

Many thanks Paul.

Just I wanted to know about the best practice to do that.

In AutoCAD, for example, we could add multiple developed tools (which are in lsp format) in one go.

Hi Jamal,

There is no 'best practice'. The best approach depends on the individual user's needs and the tools the software provides. As we've discussed before, Word is not AutoCAD.
