I am trying to add and icon to a toolbar to open the custom properties dialog box. This is the one that is commonly accessed by the File/Properties method.

When I attempt to use the "customize" right-click option, I cannot find an icon for the properties dialog box anywhere. Does it exist?

Thanks eddie )And Rahul) for the effort, but that icon does not bring up the custom properties dialog for the part. Rather, it is normally ghosted until you select a feature on the part, and then you can bring up the properties for that particular feature.

Pressing "P" does nothing by default. But, I did add a new shortcut to make "P" open the file properties. So, problem solved. I will note that there is not an icon next to "File Properties" in the shortcut list, like there are for many of the shortcuts. It would appear that there is no icon, which is why I couldn't find it!

Thanks all for the help. I am surprised so many jumped at the chance to help me on this, so quickly. Is this evidence of the recession, giving people more time to do these things?
