What's New With Toolbars and Menus?
If you upgraded to Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition from Microsoft Word
for the Macintosh 5.1, there may be times when you would like to work in a

following changes occur:
- Word 98 displays the Word 5.1 toolbar.
- The Word 5.1 ribbon toolbar and ruler are available on the View menu.
- Word 98 rearranges menu commands to more closely correspond to the
Word 5.1 menus.
