There are seventeen menu options: fourteen of which may be accessed by right clicking on the main window and three by right clicking on the Freezer name box. Most of these options may be accessed by Keyboard shortcuts as well.
The main options are:
| Menu option | Action |

That is, if you delete an item then close down the application then start it up again the deletion history will be lost. Also see: The paragraph in the Delete food item section about undeleting. |
| Duplicate food item | This menu option may be used to duplicate a food item in the freezer book. Also see: Duplicate food item |

| Change your nickname | Clicking this option will give you a My Nickname dialog box. If you have more than one computer which will have access to the freezer book then the locking mechanism will warn the other users when you have the inventory file open. The default nickname is your computer's name which may not be very helpful to the other users. So, if you would like to set another name which is more meaningfull to those users then here's your chance. |

If you want to create a new location for the freezer book items then navigate to where-ever it is that you want to place it and then click the Make New Folder button and type in a name of your own choice. This will keep the Freezer book happy. |
