PREFACE
Information technology (IT) is the application of computers to store, study, retrieve, transmit and
manipulate data or information, often in the context of a business or other enterprise. IT is
considered a subset of Information and Communications Technology (ICT). In 2012, Zuppo proposed
an ICT hierarchy where each hierarchy level "contains some degree of commonality in that they are
related to technologies that facilitate the transfer of Information and various types of electronically
mediated communications."
The term is commonly used as a synonym for computers and computer networks, but it also
encompasses other information distribution technologies such as television and telephones. Several
industries are associated with information technology, including computer hardware, software,
electronics, semiconductors, internet, telecom equipment and e-commerce.

Insert Tab
In the Word 2010 Insert tab tutorials we will go step by step through each section of the Insert tab just
like we did on the Home Tab. We will continue to work on the greeting card we started along with
other documents in order to give you a complete understanding of all of the functions in the Insert tab.
To move forward to the next section click one of the links at the top of the page otherwise you can
follow eac7h tutorial in order by clicking the next button at the end of each section. The insert tab's
name fits its function well. Anything you think you might want to add to a word document you use
the insert tab to insert the extra features into your document.
Pages:
On the far left the first section is the Pages section. The three categories you can
insert for pages are; Cover Page, Blank Page, and Page Break. These three
features are useful if you are creating a professional or long document.
1. Cover Page:
Notice how you get a selection of already designed cover pages you could use for a business
report or other professional looking document. This can be a huge time
saver. Click on the design you want and Microsoft Word 2010 will
design your cover page. All you need to do is highlight the text and type
your changes. There are more cover pages available online if you click
on the first option below the thumbnail images of the pre-designed

the Page Break and press the Backspace button. That wraps up the Pages section of the insert
tab. Click the Next arrow to move on to Tables.
Tables:
He Word 2010 tables section Tutorial is used to insert tables into your document. Tables can get

information in a word document. Click on the down arrow of the table button. This will show you the
options you have to create a customized table to insert into your Word document. The first option
works by dragging the mouse over the number of rows and columns you would like in your table.

preview of the table inserted as you are highlighting the cells. Once you have selected the number of
rows and columns you would like click the left mouse button and your
table will be placed into your word document. You are then able to
type your text into each cell of the table. If you decide that you need
more cells in your table at a later time all you need to do to add a row
of cells is place the cursor in the bottom right cell and press the tab
key. This will add an entire row of cells. If you need a new column
right click anywhere in the table and select insert. You will be given a
list of options to select where you want the column inserted. hat is just
one of the ways you can insert a table. Click the down arrow of the

References Tab
The References Tab on Microsoft Word 2010’s new ribbon offers a quick way to enter your
document sources, citations and choose a style like APA, MLA etc. On the References tab
you will find things like Table of Contents, Footnotes, Citations & Bibliography, Table of
Figures, Captions, Indexes and Table of Authorities.
Let us take a look at what the References Tab has to offer. Here is a screen shot of what it
looks like.
1. Table of Content:
49 | P a g e

to do is click Update Table and the page numbers in your contents page will be updated.
Footnotes
In this tutorial you will learn to use the Word 2007 Footnotes section of the References tab. A
footnote is used to comment on or provide a reference for text in a document. A footnote will create
two parts in your Word 2007 document; a note reference mark next to the sentence or line you are
referencing and the footnote text at the bottom of the page. To add a footnote to your document select
the location you want your reference mark to appear then
click the Insert Footnote button. This will bring you to the
bottom of the page when you can type your comments. The
Insert Footnote button will not only add the foot note, but
also renumber them as you move text around. Footnotes are
usually for detailed comments and endnotes are used for
citations. To insert an Endnote click in the location you want
the reference mark then click on Insert Endnote and it will be placed at the bottom of your document
and allow you to type your endnote. To scroll between all of your footnotes and endnotes click the
Next Footnote button. This button gives you the options to go to the next or previous endnote and
footnotes. Show Notes scrolls through the document to show you where all of your footnotes and
endnotes are located. The show notes button will be grayed out until you have footnotes inserted into
your document.

will open another window where you can either create a single envelope or create a document
for the envelope to do a mail merge which we will cover in a minute. Click the Envelopes
button.
Notice above the Delivery address text box you will see a little icon of a book. If you click
this icon it will open your outlook contacts and you are able to select one and it will
automatically enter the selected person’s address in the Delivery Address box. To add
electronic postage to a printed envelope you need to subscribe to a postage service for a fee.

In the Preview section you will see a picture of the envelope you selected with the changes
you made.
In the printing options you can choose how your envelope will be loaded into your printer and
if you have more than one tray to load paper what tray your envelopes will be in.
Click OK if you made any changes otherwise click Cancel to return to the Envelopes and
Labels window.
Once you have returned to the Envelopes and Labels window you can either select Print if
you are only going to print one envelope and you have entered your information in the text
boxes or you can click add to document. The Add to Document button will put the envelope
in your current Word document.
If you choose to add the envelope to the document it will keep all of the formats and allow
you to change the envelope style with the tools you already know how to use in the Home tab.
You can change text color, add graphics, etc. This is what you will need to do to use the mail
merge.
2. Labels:
The next button in the Create section is Labels. By clicking on the Labels button it will open
the same Envelopes and Labels windows that opened when you clicked on the Envelopes
button. The only difference will be that the Labels tab will automatically be selected.
59 | P a g e
To create your label you can either create labels that are all the same by entering your
information in the Address text box or you can create a new document with the new
document button and make each label different. In the Print section you can select Full page
of the same label if you have entered information in the Address section or print a single label
with the information. If you choose to print a single label look at your page if labels and enter
the row and column of the next

making envelopes the envelopes option window will open. Select the size of envelope you are
printing on and click OK. This will return you to the Mail Merge wizard with the page format
changed to the size of the envelope.
Use an existing list which will let you select an excel spreadsheet or access database that you
have already created to print your mail merge.
Select from Outlook Contacts which will let you open all contacts you have stored in
Microsoft Outlook Contact List and select only the recipients you want to enter into your mail
merge.
If you are going to use this same list over again check the Remember this matching for this
set of data sources on this computer. Then select OK to return to the Insert Address Block
Window. Click OK again to continue with the Mail Merge wizard.
61 | P a g e
This section of mail merge will let you click through each recipient you have selected to see
how their information will appear on your envelope. You can also use the exclude this
recipient button to filter your contacts as you click through.
In the final step click the Print link and you will get the Merge to Printer window where you
can select to print all your envelopes at one time, just print the Current envelope or select a
range to print. Once you have made your selection make sure your printer is ready and click
OK.
The next buttons in the Start Mail Merge section will do the same thing we already covered in
the Wizard. I would recommend using the mail merge wizard until you are completely
comfortable with the mail merge process. Even with my computer background I still use the
wizard.

Macros
Simply put, a macro is a series of commands that is recorded so it can be played back, or
executed, later.
Fortunately, creating and running macros isn't too difficult, and the resulting efficiency is well
worth the time spent learning to use them. Keep reading to learn how to work with Macros in
Word 2003. Or, learn how to record macros in Word 2007.
There are a couple different ways to create Word macros: The first, and easiest way, is to use
the macro recorder; the second way is to use VBA, or Visual Basic for Applications. Further,
Word macros can be edited by using the VBE, or Visual Basic Editor. Visual Basic and the
Visual Basic Editor will be addressed in subsequent tutorials.
There are over 950 commands in Word, most of which are on menus and toolbars and have
shortcut keys assigned to them. Some of these commands, however, are not assigned to
menus or toolbars by default. Before you create your own Word macro, you should check to
see if it already exists and can be assigned to a toolbar.
To see the commands available in Word, follow this quick tip to print out a list, or follow
these steps:
2. Click Macros… from the submenu; you can also use the Alt + F8 shortcut key to access
the Macros dialog box.
3. In the dropdown menu beside the "Macros in" label, select Word Commands.
4. An alphabetical list of the command names will appear. If you highlight a name, a
description of the command will appear at the bottom of the box, under the "Description"
label.
5. If the command you wish to create already exists, you should not create your own Word
macro for it. If it doesn't exist, you should proceed to the next page that covers planning
your Word macro.

Introduction to MS
EXCEL (Formulas)
64 | P a g e
Steps to Start MS Excel:
There are multiple ways to start Excel. We can Start Excel 2010 from the Start Menu (in Windows 7)
or by opening as existing word file.
3. Click the Start button; click All Programs, Click Microsoft Office and then Click
Microsoft Excel 2010. The program window opens with a new blank document.
Introduction to MS Excel:
65 | P a g e
Excel is the spreadsheet program created by Microsoft. Although you can use any spreadsheet
program for analyzing data, the instructions given here are specific for Excel and you must use Excel
for the three Excel quizzes. NOTE: Microsoft also makes a less powerful spreadsheet program as part
of Microsoft Works or some similar title. Some of the features that we will use in these exercises are
not found in MS Works, so you will not be able to complete all the exercises using MS Works.

Formula Tab
We use Formula tab to insert functions, define the name, create the name range, review the formula,
etc. In ribbon, Formulas tab has very important and most useful functions to make dynamic reports.
Function Library:
In Excel, we have 461 functions and they are available in the formulas tab under the function
library group. And there is no need to learn every formula for we can find formulas category
wise such as:- Financial, Logical, Text, Date & Time, Lookup & Reference, Math & Trig,
many more.
1. Insert Function:
67 | P a g e
2. Auto Sum:
Auto Sum is a common function that even beginner users find helpful. If you
click the down arrow on the Auto Sum button you will see a list of formulas
you may find useful. To use these formulas click on the cell you want your
answer to appear. (If the cell you choose is not directly below a list of
numbers Excel will place the formula and let you highlight the numbers you
want to use.) Then select the Auto Sum function you want to use; Sum will
add your numbers, Average will provide an average to a list of numbers,
count numbers will count how many numbers you have, Max will find the highest number in
your list, and Min will find the lowest number. Once you click your formula your work is
done and Excel will provide your answer.

68 | P a g e
3. Recently Used:
The Recently Used button will change as you use more functions. The down
arrow will list your most commonly used formulas.
4. Financial:
To illustrate Excel's most popular financial functions, we consider a loan with monthly
payments, an annual interest rate of 6%, a 20-year duration, a present value of $150,000
(amount borrowed) and a future value of 0 (that's what you hope to achieve when you pay
off a loan).
We make monthly payments, so we use 6%/12 = 0.5% for Rate and 20*12 = 240 for Nper
(total number of periods). If we make annual payments on the same loan, we use 6% for
Rate and 20 for Nper.

MS Access
Microsoft Access is a computer application used to create and manage computer-based
databases on desktop computers and/or on connected computers (a network). Microsoft
Access can be used for personal information management (PIM), in a small business to
organize and manage data, or in an enterprise to communicate with servers. Like any other
computer application, in order to use Microsoft
Access, you must first install it. After
installing Microsoft Access, then you can open it.
There are various ways you can open Microsoft
Access. It gets launched like the usual products
you have probably been using. As such, to start
this program, you could click Start -> (All)
Programs -> Microsoft Office -> Microsoft
Office Access 2010. if you have a Microsoft
Access database such as an E-Mail attachment, a
file on a floppy disk, on the network, or in any other
means, once you see its icon, you can double-
click it. Not only will this action launch Microsoft
Access, but also it will open the file.
84 | P a g e
Creating Forms in Access:
The Forms Design view provides a way to alter all of the properties of form canvas and
fields. While it is possible to create a form from scratch just by using the Design View,
usually we can get a good start on a form by running through the Form Wizard. Then we can
customize the form by playing around with the form properties in Design View. To get
started, we will create a data entry for the Accounts table as discussed in the MS Access
2007/2010 Tutorial.
For this exercise, we will create a data entry form for the Accounts table.
Click on the Create tab on the Access main screen and then click on the
More Forms… button and the “Forms Wizard” to create a new form.
Select the Accounts table and all of the available fields and click on the
Next button.
Choose a Tabular layout and click on the Next button.
For Access 2007 only choose the Office style and click on the Next
button.
Name the form: AccountsDataEntry Then click on the Finish button to
create, save and view the new form.
Note that if you had already created this form during the prior tutorial,
you will be asked to over-write the form with this new one.
85 | P a g e
Microsoft Access Form Properties
Every element or object on a form or report in MS Access has a set of properties associated
with it. On a form, there are “form level” properties that apply to the entire form. Each label,
text box, combo box and other object on a form also have their own set of properties. To view
the Form level properties, right-click on the form in Design View and select Properties from
the pop-up menu. If the Selection Type does not say Form then pull down the list below and
select Form from the list.
The Data tab displays properties of the form related to the data that is used to populate the
form and how the data is to be displayed and manipulated. Access has already set all of these
properties when the form was created by the Forms Wizard. So by default there may not be a
reason at this point to change any of the properties. However in later steps we may come back
to this property page to make some changes.
86 | P a g e
Properties Description
Record Source The source of data for the form. Forms may only have one source of
data “bound” to the fields on the form. This source can be a query but
most of the time it will be a table.
Recordset Type The type of Recordset object created from the record source. In
virtually all cases this should be set to Dynaset since a Dynaset
maintains consistency with the underlying table. A snapshot just shows
the data at the time the form is opened so no data changes are reflected
until the form is re-opened or refreshed.
Fetch Defaults Yes indicates default values set in the underlying table will be
populated in the fields when a new record is created.
Filter Sets any filtering criteria for when the form is opened. For example,
one might set a filter to only show “Money Market” account types for a
particular form. By default no filters are applied but can be added by
the user once the form is displayed.
Filter on load If a filter is set, Yes indicates the filter will be applied as the form is
loading.
Order By Specifies the order of the records as they are displayed in the form. For
example, putting “CustomerID” for this property will cause the form to
display the Accounts records ordered by CustomerID.
Data Entry Yes indicates the form can only be used to add new data records. No is
the default.
Allow Additions Yes indicates this form can be used to add new records.
Allow Deletions Yes indicates this form can be used to delete existing records.
Allow Edits Yes indicates this form can be used to edit existing records.
Allow Filters Yes indicates users can add filters to diplsay a subset of the records in
the form.
Record Locks Indicates how data should be locked when multiple users are working
on the same data. Locks are used to prevent two users from overwriting
the same data.
No Locks indicates no locking is done. This is the default but may not
be reasonable if you plan to share this data with multiple users.
All Records indicates all records in the table are locked when a user
edits one record.
Edited Record indicates only the current record being edited will be
locked.
Properties & their Descri
87 | P a g e
Field Properties
While form-level properties apply to entire forms, the field-level properties apply to specific
fields. if the Property Sheet is no longer open, right-click on the CustomerID field and select
Properties from the pop-up menu. If the Property Sheet is already displayed then simply click
once on the CustomerID field.
As with the form-level properties, Access sets the default properties for each field during the
Forms Wizard process to create a new form. Most of these properties can (and probably
should) be left with their default values. However a few properties will be modified to change
the behavior of the fields.

Access Queries:
Queries are the basis of power in a database. They give you the ability to ask
questions, record the questions for later, and to take actions on the answers.
Preperations:
Click the Create tab, and then the Query Design button at the right hand end.
Access asks you which tables you want to ask questions about. First off, let’s
just take a look at the Book table. We can add the Author table later.
The real power in Access is the ability to easily deal with multiple tables at
once, but one step at a time.
Click on Book, and click the Add button. The window stays open, so click the
Close button.

We
can make some adjustments to the way the layout looks by dragging the central divider up or
down, and there are shortcuts at the bottom right, in the status bar, that let you change the
type of view you are using. More about those later.
The upper portion of the screen contains all of the included tables, with a list of the fields.
The lower portion is where the questions are asked.
First, you need to choose which of the fields in the table you want to either ask questions
about, or wish to include in the answer. To choose, double-click the field, or drag it to the
grid below.
90 | P a g e
For our example we want to choose Author, Title & Rating.
Once you have the fields in the grid, there are a lot of choices to make. They
work line by line.
We have already chosen the fields, and the tables are added automatically. The
next thing is the sort. To sort the books by rating for instance, click in the sort
box for that column, and change the setting to Ascending or Descending.
You can sort by multiple columns. The priority is from left to right, so if you
wanted to sort by Rating and then Title, you would need to rearrange the
columns. You can just select by the grey bar at the top and drag them around.
You often need to connect tables together in queries. For instance in this case,
we could add the Author table so that we can make use of the information in it
for sorting or further criteria.
As it happens, the lookup that we set up for the Author table means that we
already have access to the Author’s last name, but let’s just pretend we wanted
to sort the output by the author’s first name instead. After all, these guys (or at
least the few who are still alive) are friendly enough. Let’s call them Isaac and
Robert, right? Oh, hold on. Those two are dead.
91 | P a g e
While in Design View, click the Show Table button and add the Author table to
the grid.
Because of the lookup that was set up, Access already knows how the tables are
related, so you don’t need to worry about that. Drag the First Name field down
into the criteria block, then drag it off to the left so you can sort it as a priority.

Creating Reports in Access
There are many ways to create a report in Access. You can use the Report
Wizard to generate a report using Microsoft's step-by-step report wizard to
create and format a report automatically. This handles all of the "heavy lifting"
so that you don't have to drag and drop controls.
A second way to create a report is to re-save an existing report and then make
customizations to the new report.
A third way is to create a report "from scratch". This is what we will do for the
purposes of this tutorial so that you understand exactly how to design and create
your own reports.
To create a report, select the Create tab in the toolbar at the top of the
screen. Then click on the Report Design button.
This will allow you create a report and open that new report in Design
View.

Record Source property:
Let's take a few moments to explore some of the more commonly used
properties for a Report object in Access 2010.
The Record Source property sets the source of the data for the report.
The Record Source property can be set to a table name, query name, or you can
build your own SQL statement by invoking the Query builder (ie: clicking on
the button with the three dots to the right of the Record Source property).
94 | P a g e
In this example, we are going to invoke the Query builder by clicking on the
button with the three dots to the right of the Record Source property.
95 | P a g e
When the Show Table window appears, select the table(s) that you'd like to use
to populate your report. In this example, we've selected the Products table. Then
click on the Add button.
Once you've added all of the tables that you need, click on the Close button.
When the Query Builder window appears, you can now build your SQL
statement that will be used to populate your report. In this example, we've
chosen to select all fields from the Products table, but only those records where
the UnitPrice is less than 500.
You can close the Properties by clicking on the X in the top right corner of the
Property Sheet.
