INTRODUCTION
In addition to using the pull-down menus at the top of the Word window, you can also use context menus to issue commands. These are small menus that you display by clicking with the right-hand mouse button. The commands in a context menu vary depending on where you right-click. For example, if you right-click text, you get commands for editing and formatting text. If you right-click a toolbar, you get a list of toolbars that you can display or hide (see "Working with Toolbars" later in this part for more information about toolbars). To choose a command in a context menu, simply left-click it.
TIP
Using Word's Main Menus
If you forget to use shortcut menus, don't worry about it. All of the commands in these menus are also available in the pull-down menu system.
