can you disable condensing of pull down menus? Options Advertisers


Is there anyway to set up office products (like Word, Powerpoint) so
that the pulldown menus, display all the options for the first column,
rather than show the downward pointing arrow at the bottom of the menu
to expand the other options. The current behavior seems absolutely
useless and is incredibly annoying.

For example, in Word, if I click the File Menu, I get:

File>
Save As
Page Setup
Print
Properties
<down arrow>

it is only after clicking the down arrow that I see the rest of the
options in that menu

I want to see everything. it is a pain in the neck to always have to
expand the menu.

Thanks

Open one of your microsoft Office applications, such as Word,
and from the Toolbar select: tools > Customize > Options
ans place a check next to "Always show full menus".
