This excerpt covers a part of the discussion on Dialogue Boxes, and includes two of the Practical Exercises for Opening and Closing Dialogue Boxes and Moving Within Dialogue Boxes. Bear in mind that a significant amount of introductory explanation and practice has already preceded this concept in the full training manual. You provide this information by selecting options in a dialogue box. A dialogue box is a temporary window that appears in front of the active window. So far we have used dialogue boxes to open, save and print files, and to format and find text.
Dialogue boxes have a title bar but no menu bar.
In some instances they may have a Control Menu icon. To Open and Close a Dialogue Box 1. Start the WordPad program. Select File from the menu bar and then choose Print. The Print dialogue box will open.
