The first thing I want to talk about is the menu toolbar that you see on top of the page. It looks something like this

The toolbar is divided into different menu choices like File, Edit, View etc. Each menu option like File, Print caters to a specific function on the document. For example Print lets you print the word document to a printer and so on. Every menu option gives you more choices in a drop down list. When you click on File, you get a drop down menu that looks like this. This is just an example of a drop down menu to show the effect.
