View, toolbars, click on stop recording

additional information:
You lost the button by hitting the [x] in upper right corner
and had to use the tools, macro, stop recording in the meantime.

If you want to change between relative and absolute cell reference when
recording a macro, a button should appear for "Stop recording" and "toggle
reference"

However this has only appeared once on both of my computers (Office 2003 on
XP and Office 97 on Windows 98), even after rebooting I cannot persuade this
button to re-appear!

Help please?
