= SUMMARY =

In versions 3.x and later of Microsoft Word for the Macintosh you can use the Work menu to access frequently used documents, styles, glossary entries, and stationery (in Word 5.0).

To add items to the Work menu, do the following:

  Create the document, style, glossary entry, or stationery (Word 5.0 only) you want to add to the Work menu. Note: If you are going to add a style, you must add the style to the default style sheet by choosing the Set Default button in the Define Styles dialog box. If you are going to add a glossary entry, you must add the entry to the Standard Glossary.   Press COMMAND+OPTION+PLUS SIGN (the cursor will change to a bold plus sign).   To add items to the Work menu, follow the appropriate procedure below:   To add a document to the Work menu, choose Open from the File menu and select the name of the document you created in step 1.   To add a style to the Work menu, choose Styles from the Format menu and select the style you created in step 1.   To add a glossary entry, choose Glossary from the Edit menu and select the glossary entry you created in step 1.   In Word 5.0 you can add stationery to the Work menu. From the File menu, choose Open. Select the name of the stationery you want to use. Choose the Open button.  </li></ol>

= MORE INFORMATION =

If you are using Word 4.0, 5.0, or 5.1 you can use the Commands command to place these Glossary Entries on any menu (not just the Work menu). This cannot be done for Documents, Styles, and Stationery files. Additionally, you can assign key combinations for accessing documents, glossary entries, or stationery by using Assign to Key command.
