When I open microsoft word, the page appears but I have no toolbars at all
showing. I have tried right clicking on different areas to no avail. I am
unable to locate anything that will let me see or reset or show my
toolbars... Please help

To fix the problem, you need to close Word and delete one of the following
Registry keys:

For Word 97:

\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\8.0\Word\Data

for Word 2000:

\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Word\Data

for Word 2002:

\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Word\Data

A clean key will automatically be created when you restart Word.

Alternatively, rather than delete the “Data” key itself, you can delete
either “Settings” or the “Toolbars” value within the Data key – if your menus
and toolbars are corrupt but your other settings are OK, just delete the
Toolbars value and you won't lose your preferred settings.
