Summary

One of the most convenient features of Microsoft Word is the ability to customize the tools that you work with. This article describes how you can customize and create toolbars and toolbar buttons. You can customize any toolbar by adding, deleting, moving, or grouping toolbar buttons to suit your needs.

Microsoft Word includes several built-in toolbars, including the two default toolbars that are visible when you start Word: the Standard toolbar and the Formatting toolbar. The Standard toolbar includes command buttons with which you can quickly access many of the frequently used commands, such as Save, Open, Copy, and Paste. The Formatting toolbar provides quick access to text-formatting commands, including Bold, Italic, Underline, Numbering, and Bullets.

To see a list of available toolbars, point to Toolbars on the View menu. The available toolbars appear on the Toolbars submenu. The toolbars that are currently visible in the Word window are selected (check marks appear next to them). To view and use a toolbar, you must select it on the Toolbars submenu. To select it (make it visible on the Word screen), click the toolbar name.

Note Creating and customizing menus in Word is similar to the way that you create and customize your toolbars.

  • I just upgraded to Outlook 2016 from 2013
    I do not want to EVER see the quick access toolbar. I have no use for it and even when the ribbon is hidden it makes the top blue are where the file menu is two lines high and I want it one line high with just the file menu tabs. Is that so difficult? I am sick of MS introducing view/layout features that waste my valuable screen space. It was bad enough that the upgrade trashed the layout I had before (would it really be so difficult to preserve and reapply that during an upgrade) but this quck access toolbar is just one more annoyance.
