Can someone tell me how to turn OFF this annoying 'feature'?

I'm not sure if it's Win2k, Office2k, or IE5.5 that gives you the shortened menus (with the double, down pointing arrows the you click on to expand the menu)...but in whatever case, how do i turn it OFF so the menus come up FULL everytime?

Thanks.

In any Office application:

Tools/Customize/Options -- uncheck the box that says "Menus show recently used commands first"


In Windows 2000:

Right-click on the taskbar, choose "Properties," uncheck the box that says "Use Personalized Menus"
