What are the Basic Parts of MS
Word Window?
• The Basic Parts of the MS Word Window specifically
are the title bar, quick access toolbar, ribbon, ruler, and
the view button. It is the portion of the screen that
displays the contents of a document file.

Next slide is an illustration of the parts of a document window in


MS Word.
Different Parts of MS
Word Window and its
Functions
File Tab of MS Word Window
• The File tab is replaced in Office button in Word 2007.
You can click it to see the back stage view. This is where
you go to open or save a file, make a new document,
print a document, or do anything else that has to do
with files.
Quick Access Toolbar
• This Quick Access Toolbar is one of Microsoft Word
Window 2019’s most important parts. It is also at the
top left corner of the screen, right above the File Tab. It
is where the commands you use most often are kept. By
default, it includes the Save, Undo, and Redo commands
You can change the way this toolbar looks to suit your
needs.
Title Bar of MS Word
• The title bar is a component of the Word window. It is situated
at the top and middle of the document window and displays the
program or document’s name. When we open that particular
document in Microsoft Word, the title will appear to us as
Document1 – Word. It is referring to a generic name that is shown
by the software of the program. When we save our document, we
have the option of giving it a new name that is more appropriately
associated with our file.
Ribbon of MS Word Window
• The Ribbon contains multiple tabs, which you can find near the top
of the MS Word window. Word uses a tabbed Ribbon system
instead of traditional menus. The Ribbon contains all of the
commands you will need to perform common tasks in Word. It has
multiple tabs, each with several groups of commands.
Groups − They organize related commands; each group
name appears below the group on the Ribbon. For
example, group of commands related to fonts or group of
commands related to alignment, etc.
Commands − Commands appear within each group as
mentioned above. Some groups also have a small arrow
in the bottom-right corner that you can click for even
more options.
Showing and Hiding the Ribbon
if the Ribbon is taking up too much room on your screen, you can hide
it. To do this, click the arrow in the upper-right corner of the Ribbon,
then choose the option you want from the dropdown menu in your MS
Word window:
• Auto-hide Ribbon: Auto-hide makes your document fill the whole
screen and hides the Ribbon completely. Click the “Expand Ribbon”
button at the top of the screen to show the Ribbon.
• Show Tabs: When this option is turned on, all command groups will
be hidden when they are not being used. Tabs will still be shown. To
bring up the Ribbon, just click on a tab.
• Show Tabs and Commands: This option makes the Ribbon bigger.
You will be able to see all of the tabs and commands. When you open
Word for the first time, this option is already chosen.
Rulers
Word has two rulers: one
horizontal and one vertical.
• The horizontal ruler, which
appears just below the
Ribbon, is used to set
margins and tab stops.
• The vertical ruler, which
can be found on the left
edge of the Word window,
is used to determine the
vertical position of elements
on the page.
Zoom Control

slider that you can
slide left or right to
zoom in or out; you
can increase or
decrease the zoom
factor by clicking the +

View Buttons
• Word View Buttons gives you a number of
ways to change how your document is shown.
• Further, this part of the window allows you to
choose and view your document in Read
Mode, Print Layout, or Web Layout.

especially if you want to print the document. Read Mode- This view opens the document to a full screen.

document as a webpage, which can be helpful if you’re using Word to Word. It shows what the document will look like on the printed
publish content online page.
Using the Tell me feature
• If you’re having trouble finding a command you want, the Tell Me
feature can help. It works just like a regular search bar. Type what you’re
looking for, and a list of options will appear. You can then use the command
directly from the menu without having to find it on the Ribbon.
Status Bar
• This Status Bar is a part of the window that displays the
document information as well as the insertion point location.
From left to right, this bar contains the total number of pages and
words in the document, language, etc.

and by selecting or deselecting options from the provided list.

options about the group.
