The New File Menu

The File menu has had a major makeover-instead of the word “File,” the Microsoft Office button now marks the spot where the File menu resides. And the changes in the File menu aren’t only cosmetic-functional changes help you focus on the file-related tasks you need. The new File menu includes two panels. On the left, you see the major file tasks; on the right, the choices related to those tasks appear when you point to one of the commands on the left. For example, when you position the mouse over Prepare, the options shown in Figure I-7 appear.
