[h=3]Introduction
[h=4]By the end of this lesson, learners should be able to:
- Discuss common menus featured in Office 2003
[h=2]Menus
[h=3]Office 2003 is designed to be User Friendly
If you're new to Office, it may seem almost impossible to learn all of the programs in the standard
version of Office 2003. Don't worry. Microsoft designed each of the Office 2003 programs to work
together. In fact, there are certain features that are common to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and
Outlook, making each program easier to learn and use.
In our Windows 2003 course, you learn about many of the basic elements
in an Office 2003 program window. In this lesson, you will learn about menus in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook.
[h=2]Menus
[h=3]The Menu Bar
Each Office 2003 program features a menu bar. The menu bar is made up of many
different menus. Each menu contains commands that enable you to work within the program.
Office 2003 programs have very similar menus. Remember, the menus
and menu commands slightly differ because each program performs a different function.
[h=2]Menus
[h=3]Viewing a Menu and Executing a Command [h=5]To open a menu and execute a command:
Click on a menu name.
The menu, complete with a list of commands, appears.
With the menu open, drag the mouse pointer to a command and click
on it. (As you drag your mouse pointer over the commands, each command is highlighted in light blue.)
If there is a small black triangle next to a command, a cascading menu with
additional options displays. Hover the mouse pointer over the command with the
triangle; the cascading menu will appear. Point and click to make a selection
from the cascading menu.
Once you execute a command, the menu disappears. Depending on which command you
selected, either the command is completed or you will be prompted to complete the next step in the command.
[h=2]Menus
[h=3]Changing the Menu Display
Office 2003 provides a couple of different ways to display menu commands.
Show the most commonly used commands followed by the full menu after a short delay.
Always show full menus.
Office 2003 programs will always show the most commonly used commands followed by
the full menu after a short delay unless you tell it otherwise.
[h=2]Menus
[h=5]To change the way menu commands are displayed:
Choose
ViewToolbarsCustomize from the menu bar.
A
Customize dialog box appears.
Click the
Options tab. Select one of the following check boxes:
- Show full menus after a short delay
Clicking the
Reset menu and toolbar usage data button will delete the record of the
commands you've used and restore the default set of visible command to the menus and toolbars.

[h=2]Toolbars and the Task Pane
[h=3]Introduction
[h=4]By the end of this lesson, learners should be able to:
- Discuss toolbars common to Office 2003 programs
- Hide and display toolbars
- Discuss the task pane's basic functionality
- Hide and display the task pane
[h=2]Toolbars and the Task Pane
[h=3]What is a Toolbar?
In the previous lesson, you learned to execute Office 2003 commands using menus. You can also execute many commands using a toolbar.
Toolbars contain icons, or buttons, representing the most commonly used
commands. Microsoft created such toolbars because often it's easier to click a
button than it is to open a menu and search for a command.
Certain toolbar buttons (and their corresponding commands) are unique to specific
Office programs, but there are others such as New, Open, Save, and Print that are
common to Word, Excel, PowerPoint.
If you forget what an icon on a toolbar means, hover your mouse pointer over the
button. A label will appear telling you what the button does. This label is called a tooltip.
It doesn't matter which way you choose to execute common commands. It's just a matter of preference.
[h=2]Toolbars and the Task Pane
[h=3]Standard and Formatting Toolbars
The Standard and Formatting toolbars are the two most commonly used toolbars in
Office 2003 programs. When you open Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, the Standard and Formatting toolbars are turned on by default.
The Standard toolbar is located just below the menu bar. It contains
buttons representing commands such as New, Open, Save, and Print.
The Formatting toolbar is located by default next to the Standard toolbar. It contains
buttons representing text modifying commands, such as font, text size, bold, numbering and
bullets. To view the entire Formatting toolbar, click the small arrow (in Word) or double
arrows (Excel, PowerPoint) on the far right of the Formatting toolbar.
Note: Microsoft Outlook features Standard, Advanced, and Web toolbars.
[h=2]Toolbars and the Task Pane
[h=3]Displaying and Hiding Toolbars
As you've just learned, the Standard and Formatting toolbars are turned on by
default in Word 2003, Excel 2003, and PowerPoint 2003. However, all of these
programs (including Outlook 2003) include other helpful toolbars that can be displayed or hidden as you need them.
[h=2]Toolbars and the Task Pane
[h=5]To display or hide a toolbar:
Choose ViewToolbars from the menu bar.
The cascading toolbar menu appears.
Check marks appear next to currently displayed toolbars.
Click the toolbar you want to display, or click the toolbar you want to hide.
[h=2]Toolbars and the Task Pane
[h=3]The Task Pane
The task pane is located on the right side of your screen and is present when
you first start an Office 2003 program. Use the task pane to create new
files, open files, search for files, cut and paste text and graphics, and
apply styles to your Office files from a single location.
[h=2]Toolbars and the Task Pane
[h=5]To hide the task pane:
Choose ViewToolbars from the menu bar.
The cascading toolbar menu appears.
Choose Task Pane.
The task pane is hidden.
OR
Click the small X in the upper right corner of the task pane.

[h=2]Dialog Boxes and Wizards
[h=3]Introduction
[h=4]By the end of this lesson, learners should be able to:
- Identify common dialog box controls
[h=2]Dialog Boxes and Wizards
[h=3]What is a Dialog Box?
So far, you've learned that commands let you control how an Office 2003 program
works. In order to execute many commands, your input is necessary. Dialog boxes help you accomplish this.
Dialog boxes look a lot like other windows and feature controls that you use to change the function or appearance of a program.
For example, if you want to open an existing Word document, whether you
choose File Open from the menu bar or click the Open button on the
Standard toolbar, an Open dialog box appears, ready for your input.
While exploring various menus in Office 2003, you may have noticed an
ellipsis (...) next to some menu commands. If you select a command that's followed by an ellipsis (...), a dialog box will appear.
