The new toolbar now appears on the list of toolbars in the Customize dialog box.
After creating a new toolbar, you need to add some commands to it, as described
below.
Adding a command to a toolbar
If the list of available buttons for a toolbar does not include all the commands you
want on that toolbar, you can add commands.
1) On the Toolbars page of the Customize dialog box, select the toolbar in the
Toolbar list and click the Add button in the Toolbar Content section of the
dialog.
2) The Add Commands dialog is the same as for adding commands to menus.
Select a category and then the command, and click Add. The dialog remains
open, so you can select additional commands. When you have finished adding
commands, click Close. If you insert an item which does not have an
associated icon, the toolbar will display the full name of the item; the next
section describes how to choose an icon for a toolbar command.
