Topic: Using Toolbars Introduction. Excel uses buttons and combo boxes on toolbars to give you an easy way to access frequently used commands. Most commands on the toolbars are also found on the menus. However, commands that appear on special feature toolbars, such as the Chart and Reviewing toolbars, do not appear on the menus. Excel has numerous toolbars. Each toolbar has buttons that represent commands related to a specific feature. The number of toolbars that appear on the screen depends on the feature you are using or the task you are performing. For example, the Chart toolbar appears when you are working with charts. When you are finished with a particular feature or task, the corresponding toolbar closes. The Standard and Formatting toolbars always appear on the screen by default. The Toolbars command appears on the View menu. The Toolbars sub-menu lists all of the Excel toolbars. Checked toolbars appear on the screen; unchecked toolbars do not. You can use keystrokes to work with the buttons and combo boxes on the toolbars. Exercise Objective. In the following exercise, you will review the buttons and combo boxes on the Standard and Formatting toolbars. Exercise: Reviewing the Standard and Formatting Toolbars Complete the following six steps to review the buttons and combo boxes on the Standard and Formatting toolbars.
