Removing items from active toolbars

If any item on the toolbar is not useful to you it can be removed. I am going to use a floating copy of the Standard toolbar as an example:

There are some actions that I used regularly in Microsoft Works which are not listed on the commonly used toolbars in Word, such as:

• From the View menu select Toolbar
• From the Toolbar submenu select Customize
• Choose the Commands tab
• Select the name of the menu (I used Insert )
• Scroll in the right window to find the button
• Click and drag the button to the space on the toolbar where you want the button
• Release the mouse and the button is placed.

Changing the size of the window displaying the selected font

If I am using the font Arial there is more than enough room to display the font name on the Formatting toolbar. If more room is needed, the size of that window can be decreased. On the other hand, if I am using the font Times New Roman MT Extra Bold the size of the window will be too small to display the entire font name. Using the Customize menu, the window can be re-sized using the following steps:

• From the View menu select Toolbar
• From the Toolbar submenu select Customize
• When the Customize window appears click on the font name window
• When the black box outlines the window put your cursor on the right edge of the window
• When your cursor changes to a double-headed arrow click and drag

Using the Symbol toolbar button

I often use symbol characters in documents I produce. On my Macintosh I use Keycaps to find the symbols, and on my IBM I use the Character Map. However, Word has a toolbar button which is easier to use than either of those two applications.
