Other Useless Interfaces


Someday I'll understand why MS WORD has a number of basic editing functions not in the EDIT pulldown menu, but exiled in unlikely places.

You need to search high and low for simple things like Headers/Footers (weirdly hidden in VIEW) and page breaks (also weirdly hidden, but this time in INSERT) and the strange pile of stuff under TOOLS including basic stuff like editing and printing an envelope or label ... I know this is old news, but it's freshly annoying every single time I use WORD.
