Hello Paul,

This is a known issue with 2003 and Microsoft does have a fix for it,
but you have to contact them to get it. Here is a brief description of
the problem...

Excel saves toolbar customization settings to an XLB file when you exit
the program, and it takes a little time to update this file. If you
launch Excel again before it has time to save the settings, all your
changes are lost. Microsoft has yet another fix that requires users to
contact customer service, but you can avoid this trouble altogether by
waiting until all hard drive activity stops after closing Excel before
launching the program again.

Sincerely,
Leith Ross
