Excel Toolbars

 

 

Text Box:  The Toolbars in Excel provide a varied and customizable method to access the features and functions in Excel that a person might find themselves needing while working on a spreadsheet. The way that people can customize and control Excel Toolbars is similar in all Microsoft office applications.

 

Excel comes with over 40 Toolbars, any number of these can be made available at any time.

           

·         Right Click on any Toolbar to see a checklist of the most common Toolbars.

·         Choose the Tools Menu/Customize…/Toolbars tab to see a complete list.

 

By grabbing the handle portion of a Toolbar you can place it in the header or footer of the application or you can float it over the work space. Toolbars can be resized. These customizations will persist upon closing and re-opening Excel.

 

Text Box:  By holding your cursor over a tool icon for a few seconds a “ScreenTip” will display the tools name. If this feature is disabled you can toggle it by choosing the Tools Menu/Customize…/Options tab.

 

 

The Tools Menu/Customize…/tabs provide easy access to control and set up of the toolbars.
