SYMPTOMS
========
When you view Full Screen (on the View menu, click Full Screen), the Full Screen
toolbar is missing.
CAUSE
=====
By design, Word does not provide a menu command to turn off the Full Screen
toolbar. The only way to hide the Full Screen toolbar is to run a Visual Basic
for Applications command.
If the Full Screen toolbar is hidden, you may have a macro or add-in that has set
the visible property for the Full Screen toolbar to False.
