(8)Toolbar

Classic menu in Word 2010 removes the Toolbar item form View drop down menu, because Microsoft Word 2010 does not support the same customization as that we did in old Microsoft Office 2003.

(9)Header and Footer

In the View drop down menu of Word 2003, click Header and Footer, then a header and footer toolbar will pop up.

In Word 2010, there is no more header and footer toolbar, but we can preview the styles of footer and header in the drop down menu directly.

In Word 2010, we can preview and select right style of header, footer, or page number, then selected styles will be added into current word document immediately.
