SUMMARY

The Office Shortcut Bar (OSB) ships with several premade toolbars. To display or hide any of these toolbars on the Shortcut Bar, use the right mouse button to click a blank area on a toolbar, and then click the toolbar name in the shortcut menu. When the toolbar name has a check mark next to it, the toolbar is visible on the Shortcut Bar. When the toolbar name has no check mark next to it, the toolbar is hidden. By default, the Office toolbar is the only toolbar that is visible the first time the OSB is started.
