Should I remove my earlier version of Office before upgrading to Office 95?\par
\par
Although the Office 95 set-up program does ask if you would like to remove your earlier version of Office (if there is an earlier version on your computer), the re
commended method for upgrading to Office 95 is to remove the earlier version first, before you run the set-up program. When you've removed the earlier version of Office, empty the Recycle Bin.\par
\par
I installed Office 95 and there are no buttons on
the toolbar or the Office Shortcut Bar. Why?\par
\par
By default, when you install Office, the Office toolbar does not display the buttons for the Office components, although these items can be displayed on the toolbar.\par

the Show These Files As Buttons list, check the box next to the component for which you want to display a button, such as Microsoft Word.\par
5 Click OK when you are finished adding.\par
\par
Can I use a different image on the button that I added to
my toolbar?\par
\par
If a button on the toolbar on the Office Shortcut Bar is for a shortcut, you can quickly change it by doing the following:\par
Click the right mouse button on the button you wish to change.\par
On the menu that appears, click Pro
perties, and then click the Shortcut tab.\par
Click the Change Icon.\par
Click the icon that you want to use. use the Browse button to locate additional icons. In the Properties dialogue box, click OK.\par
\par
I created a folder on my hard disk in M
y Documents which contains many shortcuts to data files. Would it be possible to have this folder as a toolbar on the Office Shortcut Bar and also change the top level icon, which always shows a yellow folder?\par
\par
Use these steps to change the top
level toolbar icon:\par
1 Create a shortcut to your folder in \\msoffice\\office\\shortcut bar.\par
2 To rename the shortcut as something a little more sensible, click the right mouse button on the shortcut folder, choose Rename and type the new name.
This will become the toolbar name.\par
\par
To change the image of the shortcut:\par
1 On the menu that appears, click Properties, and then click the Shortcut tab.\par
2 Click the Change Icon button.\par
3 Click the icon that you want to use. You c
an use the Browse button to locate additional icons. In the properties dialogue box, click OK.\par

\par
2 Click the Toolbars tab\par

where wendy's bar is your own folder shortcut.\par
7 Click on the Add button.\par

"C:\\msoffice\\office\\shortcut bar". Change it to show\par
Click the OK button twice. Your custom toolbar on the Office Shortcut Bar should be added and your top level toolbar icon should display the image you required.\par
\par
What is the Office Binder and how does it work?\par
\par
A Binder can be thought
of as a workbook where each section is a\par
separate document.\par
You can combine different documents by placing them in the Binder. Once in the Binder, the documents are stored as a single file so that they are opened and saved together. Documents
stay in the order in which they were placed, which makes using a Binder preferable to storing documents in a Windows folder. All 'bound' documents can be printed together with a cross-document page numbering.\par
Because they are in a single file, Binde
rs 'travel' together, whether they are copied to a network drive or disks, or sent through electronic mail. Unfortunately documents that are bound together in the Binder do not hold any links to the original files. If needed, you can easily break a Binde
r apart into separate documents, just as you can with a physical three ring binder.\par
What are the components of a Binder?\par
There are four major components of the Office Binder:\par
The left pane displays the icons for the individual sections. Click the section that you want to work on. \par
The right pane is the actual section in the Binder (for example, a Word document or a Microsoft Excel worksheet) with the general functionality of the individual program.\par
The File menu includes the Binder file management commands, including New, Open, Save, Save As, Properties, Print and Close.\par
The Section menu includes the individual section management commands, including Rename, Print and Hide.\par
Also note that a button in
the upper-left corner allows you to hide or unhide the left pane of the Binder.\par
\par
What are the main features of the Binder?\par
\par
1 The Binder retains the order of your files.\par
2 The sections in a Binder stay together (for functions such as storing, printing, saving and mailing).\par
3 A Binder is easy to construct and break apart.\par
4 Page numbers, headers,footers and so on apply across all sections.\par
5 A Binder has properties as a whole and as parts.\par
6 Spelling and other utilities apply across all parts.\par
7 Part properties are propagated to Binder level.
8 You can construct a template for an entire Binder.\par
9 A Binder can be opened and saved as one file.\par
10 You can establish a hierarchy within a Binder.

When I first ran Schedule+ 95 it asked if I wanted to use my existing Schedule file, at the time I said no, but now I would like to import my old .cal file. Can I do this?\par
\par
Schedule+ 1.0 uses .cal files to store your appointment data. You can easily bring this data into Schedule+ 95 by doing the following:\par
1 Click on the File menu.\par
2 Click Open.\par
3 Click Open Archive or Project Schedule.\par
4 Locate your old .cal file.
5 Click Open. Your data should now be imported to Schedule+95.
