Microsoft Word 2007

Word is a very popular text formatting and editing


program. It is the standard for writing papers and other
documents.

The Basics - Tips
1. Saving Your Work - The first thing you should always
do when you start a new document is to Save it.
2. Formatting - Avoid formatting as you type. In-line
formatting tends to produce unintended results. It is
better to write your text first, then select the text and
apply formatting to the entire section all at once.



3. Accessing Features: There is usually more than one way to
access any given options or features in Word. Most of the
popular Tools are available to you as icons in the Ribbon at
the top of the Word window. You can also access the
formatting options for any item by right-clicking on it.
4. Undoing Errors - If you make a mistake (for example, you
paste over an entire section of text, or delete by accident),
you can usually undo it by choosing Quick Access Toolbar >>
Undo on the Menu Bar. This reverses the last several actions.
You can also Undo an action by typing Ctrl-Z.
The MS Office Button contains the main file functions
New, Open, Save, Save as, Print, Print Preview, etc.

The Quick Access Toolbar contains shortcuts to Save, Undo, and Repeat

Each Ribbon Tab displays a Ribbon that provides a set of Tool Groups.

The Ribbon Tab and the Tool Groups in the Ribbon correspond to the
Menu and Toolbar in Word 2000 and 2003
The Name of each Tool Group is listed at the bottom of the Group
o Example - In the Home Tab, the second Tool Group is named Font
o The name "Font" is under the Font Tool Group
