Hi All,

In a training document, if I refer to the various menu selections under
"File" (such as New, Open, Close, Save) as "subordinate" items, what would
be an appropriate term for "File"? I don't particularly like the suggested
anonymous for subordinate, i.e., superior, dominant, primary, leading. Any
other ideas someone might have would be appreciated.

You can respond to me personally at dlwinkeler -at- agedwards -dot- com -dot-

thanks -- Dave
