I have the same issue.

Excel 2003, Avery Wizard 3.1

The install created a new toolbar within Excel called "Avery Assistant
Toolbar" with a single button to run the Avery Wizard. I would prefer
to run via the menu Tools / Avery Wizard. The most annoying thing is
that the toolbar shows up on its own line, taking up screen real
estate.

I have tried every method I can think of to permanently remove that
toolbar (or even just have it be on the same line as another toolbar),
but it shows up on its own line every time I restart Excel.

- it's not listed under Tools / Add-Ins
- deleted the button via Alt-drag, it comes back
- Tools / Customize / Toolbars / uncheck the box, it comes back
- Tools / Customize / Toolbars / delete the toolbar, it comes back
- C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\XLSTART is empty
- C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel
\XLSTART is empty
- renamed C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft
\Excel\Excel11.xlb to force Excel to rebuild the default toolbars, it
comes back

I was able to remove the toolbar by renaming C:\Program Files\Avery
Wizard 3.1\AveryOAd.dll to .old, but that removed the Tools / Avery
Wizard menu item as well.

There's got to be a way to extract this toolbar from Excel, while
maintaining the ability to run the wizard, I can't believe Avery is
smarter than Micro$oft.
