A word processor proceses words or text. By processing words, you can type the text and then edit,
modify, delete or print. We need word processor on a computer to write the letter memos, reports,
newsletters, invoices, fax, messages etc. The advantage of the word processor is “Electronic Cut & Paste”
which means that typed text can be moved and shuffled anywhere in the documentation. With this word
processor, we can create any kind of documents.
2. Tabulation
MS-Excel is the package for tabulating the information, (i.e.) arranging the data in the form of rows and
columns and manipulates and analyzes it. MS-Excel is designed primarily for numerical data. Using this
Package, we can create complex tables, charts, graphs etc.

Title bar:
This tells us which application package is currently running and which document is currently open.
Menu bar:
This is the traditional windows style drop-down menu. You can point to any menu title and click once
with mouse, the menu will open, displaying all the commands available under this menu title.
Standard toolbar:
Toolbars are very helpful and convenient in quickly executing commands without having to go
through menus. The standard toolbar contains icons for basic functions like opening files, saving files,
printing files, cut, copy, paste etc.
Formatting bar:
This toolbar contains icons for changing the appearance and style of your text.
Ruler:
Ruler makes the changes to margin and indents, and helps you to create the document with some
dimensions.
Scroll tools:
A scroll tool helps to travel within the document. You can go anywhere up and down, left and right in
the document in two ways:
1. Using the horizontal and vertical scroll bars with the help of mouse.
6
2. Using page up, page down, home, end and arrow key in the key board.
Status bar:
Current page
Section number
Current total page, cursor position, line number, column number, extends selection.
Cursor:
Cursor is also called as insertion pointer. This denotes the place where text, graphics or any other item
would be placed when you type, overwrite or insert them.
Mouse Operations:
Pointing, clicking, double clicking, right clicking, dragging are the mouse operations. At first, using
the mouse may be difficult. After learning to use, it is simpler and faster to execute through the mouse than
the keyboard.
Keyboard Operations:
Typing keys:
The part of the keyboard is used to type letters, numbers and other characters. The alphabet layout is
same as the typewriter keyboard, and has some extra keys for entering commands. Example: Ctrl keys, Alt
keys, Shift keys, Enter keys etc. The Ctrl, Alt and Shift key is always used in conjunction with some other
keys.
The shift key is used to type capital letters i.e. if you want to type the letter ‘R’, you have to press the
shift key, keep it pressed with one finger and press ‘r’ with the other. Caps lock keys is a toggle key. Pressing
it once becomes on and press it again becomes off.
Function keys:
The row of 10-12 keys-F1 to F12 above the typing are called the function keys and are used to execute
special command or as shortcut keys. The use of these keys varies from program to program. In word,
function keys are used alone or together with Shift, Alt and Ctrl keys to give commands.
A group of special keys are used to control and navigate the cursor arrow keys (←, ↑, →, ↓). Home
and End are used to quickly place the cursor in beginning or end of line. To delete an alphabet to the left of
the cursor press the Backspace key, to delete an alphabet to the right of the cursor press the Del key.
Numeric keypad:
The keys on the extreme right of the keyboard, which can be used both to enter numbers and to move
the cursor. The Num lock key is located above the no:7 key on the numeric keypad and its on or off status is
7
displayed by the Numlock indicator light on your keyboard. SinceNumlockis also a toggle key, pressing it
once makes it Onand press it again makes it Off.
Commands:
For making the computer to do anything, users used to type long string of code words called
commands. Each command had an appropriate grammar called syntax. Thismeans that there is a slightest
mistake in typing the command, it would not work.
Menus:
Instead of having to type commands, users could choose the command from a list called menu. A
menu in software gives listed of assorted commands from which the user can choose desired command.
Related commands are grouped together to facilitate easy access and usage.
Icons:
Windows based software comes with a set of graphical buttons with small pictures on them. These
buttons are called Icons. All the icons look different from each other, these icons have small pictures on them.
Eg: the icon which prints your documents has a picture of a printer on it, the icon which saves your work has
a picture of floppy on it.
Toolbars:
Groups of icons, which perform related tasks, are placed together in a ribbon called a Toolbar. There
are many toolbars available in word. They are standard toolbars, formatting toolbars, drawing toolbars, tables
and border toolbars etc.
For executing a task, the user has three options.
Choose the desired command from the menu options provided by either
using the mouse or using cursor movement keys, (or)

MS – EXCEL
INTRODUCTION:
30
Excel is the package for you to handle the lot of lists, tables, financial calculations, analysis and graphs. Excel
organizes all types of data, but it is the numerical data WHERE Excel is in its home turf. Excel needs a tool
for storing and managing data but also analyzing and querying data. Excel’s powerful feature helps to do all
the above, and more. Excels takes less time to learn. Excel or spreadsheet comprises of a grid of rows and
columns. Intersection of a row and a column is called a cell. Typically, rows and numbered numerically (i.e.)
1, 2, 3, …..and so on, and columns are labeled alphabetically (i.e.) A, B, C, …..and so on. Each Spreadsheet
contains 16384 rows and 256 columns that make 4,194,304 cells. Each holding either text or numbers or
formulas. Each workbook can contain 16 or more worksheets (limited only by your computer’s memory and
storage capacity).
A rranging the data in the forms of rows and columns and manipulate and analyze the data is called
spreadsheet.
Starting Excel

Navigation:
To move around the spreadsheet either use the keyboard keys ↑ for going up, ↓ for going down,← for
going left,→ for going right, Page Up for going one screen up, Page Down for going one screen down, and
other related keys; or use mouse to traverse the different parts of the worksheet through scroll bars.
Selecting Cells:
Before entering, editing or formatting cells, they need to be selected you can select a single cell or a
group of continuous cells or even a discontinuous group of cells. This selection is called range.
To enter any text, simply activate any cell by clicking on it and start typing, press Enter to conclude
entry. Start typing, the text would appear in the active cell and in the formula Bar. If you make mistakes
while typing, Press the Backspace key to erase the present contents and type the correct text. If you notice an
error after finishing the entry, activate the relevant cells and press F2 functions key. The current content of the
cells would be displayed in the formula bar and now you can correct the entry and press Enter to conclude.

^ Exponent
( ) Parentheses
32
= Equal to
Entering Formulas:
The real power of Excel lies in its ability to store more complex formulas, you can build formulas
using absolute numbers (like = 4+2) or use relative cell address (like = A1 + B1) you must always use relative
cell referencing because in case the values changes in future, the formulas based upon these values would
automatically show the results.
Entering Dates:
In Excel, you cannot only enter dates but can also do mathematics on them. Suppose you wish to find
out how many days have in between two dates, you can give a formula to subtract the two dates like any other
number.

Typically a function consists of two-parts: function name and arguments. Argument (or values) may in
some case be mandatory and in some case optional. Even within a function, one of the arguments may be
mandatory and another optional.
ROUND ( )
The ROUND () functions rounds of a number to the specified number of decimal places.

IF ( )
The IF( ) function is one of the most useful and powerful functions available in Excel. Through this
function you can conduct conditional tests on values and formulas and execute some operation based upon the
result of that text. The outcome of the text determines the value returned by the IF function. If the specified
criterion or condition is satisfied IF returns a value T (for True) otherwise F (for False)
SUMIF ( )
The SUMIF( ) function is a combination of Sum and IF function. Through this function you can add up a
series of numbers from a specified range, provided the numbers satisfy the given criterion. Suppose you have
a range of cells containing numbers and you want to add up only those numbers which qualify based upon a
criteria specified by you, then SUMLF is the function to use.

MS-ACCESS
INTRODUCTION
When a business is small and simple you can keep track of entire information with simple lists on
paper. If the business grows, you want to maintain a lot of information about any topic and able to access it at
a snap of your finger, Microsoft Access 2000 database management system is the product to use.
MS-access is a relational database management system through which you can have multiple tables,
all linked to each other through a common field, each table containing a specific type of information.
DATABASE OVERVIEW
66
Database:
A systematic organization of data is called a database. Fields and records are used to organize
database. A record is all the information about one item.
A flat-file database is a database program that can only accommodate database consisting of a single
table. A program such as access is called a relational database because it can create two or more tables that are
linked together.
Tables
Query
Forms
Reports
Data Access page
Macros
Modules
Tables:
A table is a fundamental building block of an Access database. All databases must have atleast one
table because this is where the data is stored. Tables are grids of rows and columns. Each column in a table is
called a field. Each field contains a specific type of information such as first name, last name, phone number,
E-mail, date of joining etc. Each row of many columns (fields) contains information about one specific item,
person or transaction.
Query:
A Query is a filter through which data is evaluated. You can define a filter criteria in a query and
only those records which meet this criteria or displayed. There are three types of queries:
1. selection query→ which display a subset of the entire data sorted and selected using the criteria you
specified.
2. Action query →These queries create new tables or delete, append and update records in existing
tables.
3. Cross Tab query→ These queries display spreadsheet like cross tabular result forms.
Forms:
Forms are used to simplify data entry work or to display information in a specific manner. Forms let
you add, modify and delete database data.
67
Pivot Table Form Creates a Pivot table Form similar to an Excel Pivot Table Report
Reports:
A report summarizes data in a format suitable for publishing i.e. to view data on the screen or to
print it on a printer or to publish it on the web. Reports are used to present data in a meaningful and attractive
manner and here you can combine data, charts and images.
Reports Purpose

While creating a database, you have to define the purpose of that database. Consider the present and
future questions you may want to answer from the stored data. Example: if you want to run a query on a
customer’s database, to generate statewise-citywise lists create two separate fields for city and state instead of
address field.
Determine the tables that you do or may need in future in the database. Each table contains information only
about one subject like customers, suppliers or items.
Determine the fields that you need in each table. Each field contains a specific kind of information
such as first name, last name or account balance.
Values that allow Access to relate and store information contained in different tables. These unique
fields are also called the primary key for the table.Eg: two tables containing employees background
information and his current month’s salary details may be linked using a primary field called employee code.
