| Reclaim your menus and your toolbars! | ||||
|
|
If you use Office 2000 or later versions you’ll have a couple of features that you’ll either love or hate. This note is for the latter group, which includes myself and most of the people I’ve taught over the last few years. Menus that only show you the things Microsoft think you might want to use. You know the things – instead of a nice list you can choose what you want from you get a list of what you’ve used recently. Now that’s fine if you know exactly which menu what you want is on and are happy to either click the expand chevron at the bottom or wait a while until it decides to expand itself. It isn’t so fine if you have to search through a pile of them. Just fix it using Tools | Customise and check the box that says
"Always Show Full While you're there, check the box that says "Show Standard and Formatting Toolbars on two rows" so you can see all the Toolbar icons you paid for! Goodness knows what Office 2uh-oh3 has in store for us. It may well be a cue to download Openoffice.org!!
