Microsoft Word help, please

[mummysurfer]

I've lost my toolbars, i've lookewd everywhere but can't find them

Tools, Customise, click on Toolbars tab and choose the ones you want?

View, toolbars, click on the ones you want.

or even right click on where the toolbar should be and then select

The two main toolbars are the ones called Standard and Formatting, if that helps.

sorry, lost connection too.
am back home now buteven that part has gone....so no
File Edit View Insert etc....

tried right clicking where it ought to be but just the usual Cut Copy Paste comes up.

this has happened before a along time ago and i can't remember what i did to put it right.

thanks

So you have lost the actual Menu Bar at the top then?

And it definitely isn't anywhere else on the screen, in a different postition?

Is it just in Word?

Right - will go and explore Word!

Try pressing [Alt] F

Does this bring up the File menu?

Damn, got to go - some other teacher has apparantly booked my computer room. Will try again later if you are still having problems.

If you move the cursor right up until it's off the screen at the top, does the menu appear?

Is there a little box anywhere else on the screen?

Is it literally only the word document on the screen with nowt else?

don't know if i'm still having problems - the missing tool bar is at work, i'm now at home, i've asked them to email the word document with the missing tool bar, but they still don't have internet connection.
i've told them to try alt f but they can't try at the moment as they're trying to re-establish a connection (they have accidentally cut the wire

• this means I've come home
