The shortcut bar is an old friend and one I didn't want to lose...
You have to have a copy or get a copy of the OSA.exe file.
Then in the All Users startup folder add a shortcut to it.
Mine shows... "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 2002\Office10\OSA.EXE" -b -l"

I believe MS feels that the Quick Launch toolbar is an acceptable substitute.
(right-click the taskbar and select toolbars)

Just found out the Shortcut Bar doesn't come with Office 2003. So I'm as
good as I'm gonna get. *sigh*

Excel XLB in place and that is good. I think they didn't install the
Shortcut Bar option with this Office update. grrr!!

Everything seems okay so far in Word - macros and toolbars are there. I
miss the old Help screen, though - the new one just gives me a window to
read and not the Index and Ask a Question options.

Excel's a different story - no toolbars! Got to find my XLB and hope I
have sufficient privileges to install it!

And my Office Shortcut Bar isn't coming up! grrr!!

Provided the upgrade did not manage to lose your configuration files -
particularly normal.dot - then you should find 2003 more stable than XP.

So I come into work this morning and the Sys Admin tech is running
update scripts on my machine! One of the biggest changes is
upgrading from Office XP to Office 2003 (SP2). I use lots of macros
in Word and Excel. Should I hold my breath every time I launch one
waiting for something to break?
