Show full menus all the time
You are trying to learn Excel. Only shows you the most common menu choices under each menu. While learning Excel, use the Tools Customize feature to show the complete list of commands on each menu.
Shows a menu from one computer on my desk.
How can you learn that there is a Sort option under the Data menu if Excel will not show you all of the options? Furthermore, Microsoft customizes the menu on the basis of items you use regularly. First, you cannot learn to regularly use something if you don’t know it is there. Second, when you go to a new computer, one of the options that you think should be there may not show up. It is very diffi cult to learn Excel when the menus are not consistent across omputers.
This will show you the complete menu every time that you access that menu. Follow these steps:
- Go to the Tools menu.
- If the Customize option is not shown, select the double-down arrow at the bottom of the list in order to expand the menu.
