RE: How to explain clicking on a submenu

["Chris Vickery" <cvickery -at- arenasolutions -dot- com>]

I would name the first menu and use the gt to separate subsequent menus:

In the Home menu, select Administrator > Contacts > Reports.

Unless you have some way of differentiating the menu types, I think that
would be the best option.

Hello Everyone,

If you are clicking the Reports menu of the Contacts menu of the
Administrator menu of the Home menu, do you say:

1) Choose Reports from the Contacts Menu of the Administrator menu of
the Home menu, or
2) Choose Home>Administrator>Contacts>Reports?

Or is there a better alternative?
