As you can see, the Reveal Formatting task pane is a wellspring of formatting information, but its usefulness doesn't stop there. The Reveal Formatting task pane also provides links to the appropriate dialog boxes if you need to modify any format settings. Notice that the task pane is divided into Font, Paragraph, and Section sections (representing the three levels of formatting used in Word documents). Within each section, you can see links to formatting attributes set within the current selection. You can click any link to open the dialog box associated with the selected settings. For example, if you click the Tabs link, the Tabs dialog box opens so that you can easily configure tab settings for the current paragraph. Table 7-3 lists more examples of which dialog box opens when you click a formatting link.
