Ever since I installed Adobe Acrobat Pro 6, I've had a PDF bar in Excel. I use Excel regularly and I have an ibook 12", so screen real estate is at a minimum. I want to have this bar not come up at all, but haven't been able to locate a preference for it. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

This is something that plagues all of Office, not just Excel. The trick is to remove the plugins, then replace them with folders of the same name. I don't have the link at the moment, but search Google and you'll find plenty of descriptions of the exact procedure.

With version 7 of Acrobat, it places a PDFMakerLib in the Office folder - I assume that it is this that causes that annoying toolbar to appear every time you open Office (even though you turn it off).

thanks for the tip, I'll see what google gives me tonight.
