Select a Command from a Pull-Down Menu

When you are working in an application, you can use the menu bar to access the application’s commands and features. Each item in the menu bar represents a pull-down menu, a collection of commands usually related to each other in some way. For example, the File menu commands usually deal with file-related tasks such as opening and closing documents. The items in a menu are either commands that execute an action in the application, or features that you can turn on and off.
