Chapter Four - Menus and Toolbars

In this chapter, we’ll examine each menu and toolbar item in detail, describing its functions and options. As in Chapter 3, we’ll assume that some buttons (such as OK and Cancel) are self-evident and that you can interpret their functions from general experience with the Windows interface.

System Menu

The system pull-down menu is shown below. The menu is standard to Windows; refer to the Windows documentation if you have any questions regarding these functions.
