HELP!

I have Microsoft Word. For no apparent reason, the toolbar at the top, without which I cannot do stuff like cut-and-paste, etc, has vanished. If I click "home" it comes back. But when it is present, I cannot actually type in the document. I can only type when the toolbar is gone.

Also, normally once I click "home" the toolbar stays. Now it vanishes as soon as I type anything.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ETA: Fixed!

Another vote for keyboard shortcuts here ... CTRL+C (copy), CTRL+X (cut), and CTRL+V (paste) are your friends, and much easier while you're typing along than reaching for a mouse and a menu.

My life is incomplete without CTRL-Z.

In fact, I'd kind of like CTRL-Z for all of my life, not just doing stuff on the computer...

Like when you shut the door and as it closes, you think, "Wait, did I leave my keys inside?"

The nice thing is these keys (undo, cut, copy, paste) are standard across programs, including Mac.

Don't you have to mouse-highlight before cutting and pasting though? Is there a keyboard command for select?
