Getting Started Guide

Parts of the main Calc window
When Calc is started, the main window looks similar to Figure 88.
Figure 88: Parts of the Calc window
Title bar
The Title bar, located at the top, shows the name of the current spreadsheet. When
the spreadsheet is newly created, its name is Untitled X, where X is a number. When
you save a spreadsheet for the first time, you are prompted to enter a name of your
choice.
Menu bar
Under the Title bar is the Menu bar. When you choose one of the menus, a submenu
appears with other options. You can modify the Menu bar, as discussed in Chapter 14
(Customizing OpenOffice.org).
Toolbars
Three toolbars are located under the Menu bar by default: the Standard toolbar, the
Formatting toolbar, and the Formula Bar.
The icons (buttons) on these toolbars provide a wide range of common commands
and functions. You can also modify these toolbars, as discussed in Chapter 14
(Customizing OpenOffice.org).
In the Formatting toolbar, the three boxes on the left are the Apply Style, Font
Name, and Font Size lists. They show the current setting for the selected cell or
area. (The Apply Style list may not be visible by default.) Click the down-arrow to the
right of each box to open the list.
