    I can't tell if this was the forum I was working in last night. I can't get the zotero toolbar to show up in Word 2010 Beta. I followed the instructions to find the folder which is the startup folder for Word and make sure Zotero.dot is there. It is. Still no Zotero. I'm going to try: Office Button-->Word Options->Add-ins-->Manage Templates
    Check box next to Zotero.dot
    listed above. But I'm not optimistic. When Word starts up, it lists two add-ins loading: Google Desktop and One Note.

    I just tried all that. Zotero.dot is not there. Should it possibly be in the Add-in folder rather than the startup folder? I'm not sure how to get there.

    I tried copying zotero.dot to the add-in folder,, and I got an error message saying that path is not a valid office add-in.

    No zotero.dot folder anywhere on my computer.

    installed plugin successfully many times, according to firefox, but still no file.

    please help.

    the zotero plugin file is a .xpi, where do you get .dot?

    So, I did the same thing with the xpi file and opened it with word and word said it was unreadable :(
