It also includes a table that lists all of the switches and parameters that are available in the desktop Office apps. If you want to use a particular switch many times or every time that you start the app, you can create a desktop shortcut that starts the program by using the same switch and parameters. If you want to use the customization just one time, you can type the command and switch in the Run dialog box (Start menu) in Microsoft Windows. You can add options like this by using subcommands called command-line switches to an Office app's startup command. Or, you want to customize the process even more by loading an add-in or running a macro upon startup.

Microsoft Word, for example, displays the Word splash screen and loads the Normal template.
When you launch a Microsoft Office product, the startup process runs in a standard way.
