I am missing my file icon upon opening WORD. I have tried everything and
can't get it back. This makes it impossible for me to print to various
printers without changing completely and impossible to save changed fiels as
another file.....HELP!

Well, you can certainly print using Ctrl+P, but it's easy to get the missing
File menu back. Try these
fixes (in order):

1. Open Tools | Customize. On the Toolbars tab, select Menu Bar and press
Reset.

2. If that doesn't work, switch to the Commands tab and select Built-in
Menus in the Categories list. In the Commands list, select the appropriate
menu and drag it to the menu bar.

3. If that doesn't work (or the problem recurs on restarting Word), see
