  2. On the Customize dialog, pick the Menus page.
  3. In the Save In drop-down list, choose whether to save this changed menu for the application (for example, Writer) or for a selected document.
  4. In the section OpenOffice.org <name of the program (example: Writer) > Menus, select from the Menu drop-down list the menu that you want to customize.
