and set tabs and indentations the way you want them. You

window. These rulers are especially helpful in setting the page
format. The Drawing window opens with both horizontal and
vertical rulers.s
The Basic Functions tool bar appears in the Word
Processing and Spreadsheet windows. It has a series of
symbols for common operations, such as save, print,
copy, etc. Word Processing and Spreadsheet also have
an Advanced Functions tool bar. You can find these tool
bars in the Options menu, Show Tools submenu.
Tool bars for drawing can be used in Drawing, Word
Processing, and Spreadsheet. The Drawing, Word
Processing, and Spreadsheet applications have both
horizontal and vertical rows of drawing tools. To use a
particular feature or function, click on its button and the
button is selected (its color changes). In Drawing, when
you click to select an item on the vertical tool bar, it
opens an extended menu row of choices.
Scroll Bars help you to move a document around in the
window, and do not affect the location of the cursor.
