Menu bar disappeared

[Judicator]

Hi,

I am using Visio 2002 Standard and now the menu bar has disappeared.
I have no idea how. I have tried enabling it from Customize ->
Toolbars, but the option cannot be selected. Standard and Formatting
bar are there.

Can anyone please tell what is going on?


Thanks.

I had the same problem in Visio2000 and found the solution in KB285004. I
don't know if it will work with your version.

Hi,

You can restore the menu and toolbars by making a small change to the
registry entry.

But Please make sure you read and understand this WARNING : If you use
Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may
require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee
that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor
incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

IMPORTANT : This article contains information about modifying the registry.
Before you modify the registry, make sure to back it up and make sure that
you understand how to restore the registry if a problem occurs. For
information about how to back up, restore, and edit the registry, click the
