Customizing+The+Quick+Access+Toolbar

 Something that I found very helpful which applies to all of the Microsoft Office applications was customizing the Quick Access Toolbar. By customizing the Quick Access Toolbar you can add the commands that you use most often. This in turn saves time on projects and assignments. Along with customizing the Quick Access Toolbar you can move it closer to the work area, which would place the toolbar directly below the ribbon. By customizing and moving the Quick Access Toolbar this allows you to be more efficient while working. This also makes it more relaxing to work during an exam or if you are crunched for time because you know the tools you use most often are only a click away.
