1. Word Orientation

1.1 Starting Word Word 2007 offers a wide range of customizable options that allow you to make Word work the best for you. To access these customizable options: Click the Office Button Click Word Options

Popular These features allow you to personalize your work environment with language, color schemes, user name and allow you to access the Live Preview feature. The Live Preview feature allows you to preview the results of applying design and formatting changes without actually applying it.

Display This feature allows you to modify how the document content is displayed on the screen and when printed. You can opt to show or hide certain page elements.

ProofingThis feature allows you personalize how word corrects and formats your text. You can customize auto correction settings and have word ignore certain words or errors in a document.

Save This feature allows you personalize how your document is saved. You can specify how often you want auto save to run and where you want the documents saved.

Advanced This feature allows you to specify options for editing, copying, pasting, displaying, printing and saving.

Customize Customize allows you to add features to the Quick Access Toolbar. If there are tools that you are utilizing frequently, you may want to add these to the Quick Access Toolbar.

1.2 The Word Screen

1.3 Ribbons, Toolbars & Menus The Ribbon is the panel at the top portion of the document. It has seven tabs: Home, Insert, Page Layout, References, Mailings, Review, and View that contain many new and existing features of Word. Each tab is divided into groups. The groups are logical collections of features designed to perform functions that you will utilize in developing or editing your Word document. Commonly used features are displayed on the Ribbon, to view additional features within each group, click on the arrow at the bottom right of each group.


Status Bar




The quick access toolbar is a customizable toolbar that contains commands that you may want to use. You can place the quick access toolbar above or below the ribbon. To change the location of the quick access toolbar, click on the arrow at the end of the toolbar and click on Show Below the Ribbon.

1.4 Using Keyboard Shortcuts Use table 17 for keyboard shortcuts

1.5 Using the Ruler View > ruler. Adjist page margin

Set the tab stopsYou might want to use the ruler to set manual tab stops at the left side, middle, and right side of your document. NOTE If you don't see the horizontal ruler that runs along the top of the document, click the View Ruler button at the top of the vertical scroll bar.You can quickly set tabs by clicking the tab selector at the left end of the ruler until it displays the type of tab that you want and then clicking the ruler at the location you want. But which type of tab stop should you use?

A LEFT TAB STOP SETS THE START POSITION OF TEXT THAT WILL THEN RUN TO THE RIGHT AS YOU TYPE.

A Center Tab stop sets the position of the middle of the text. The text centers on this position as you type.

A Right Tab stop sets the right end of the text. As you type, the text moves to the left.

A Decimal Tab stop aligns numbers around a decimal point. Independent of the number of digits, the decimal point will be in the same position. (You can align numbers around a decimal character only; you cannot use the decimal tab to align numbers around a different character, such as a hyphen or an ampersand symbol.)

A Bar Tab stop doesn't position text. It inserts a vertical bar at the tab position.

If you want your tab stops at precise positions that you can't get by clicking the ruler, or if you want to insert a specific character (leader) before the tab, you can use the Tabs dialog box.To display the Tabs dialog box, double-click any tab stop on the ruler, or do the following:

On the Page Layout tab, click the Paragraph Dialog Box

Launcher. In the Paragraph dialog box, click Tabs.

About using the horizontal ruler to set tab stops By default, there are no tab stops on the ruler when you open a new blank document. The final two options on the tab selector are actually for indents. You can click these and then click the ruler to

position the indents, rather than sliding the indent markers along the ruler. Click First Line Indent , and then click the upper half of the horizontal ruler where you want the first line of a paragraph to begin. Click Hanging

Indent , and then click the lower half of the horizontal ruler where you want the second and all following lines of a paragraph to begin.

When you set a bar tab stop, a vertical bar line appears where you set the tab stop (you don't need to press the TAB key). A bar tab is similar to strikethrough formatting, but it runs vertically through your paragraph at the location of the bar tab stop. Like other types of tabs, you can set a bar tab stop before or after you type the text of your paragraph.





You can remove a tab stop by dragging it (up or down) off the ruler. When you release the mouse button, the tab stop disappears.

You can also drag existing tab stops left or right along the ruler to a different position. When multiple paragraphs are selected, only the tabs from the first paragraph show on the ruler.

1.6 The Status Bar The status bar control provided with Frame Features allows you to: display the status tip associated with a particular command add an unspecified number of status panes for displaying some specific information display any status pane as enabled/disabled align left, center, or right the text in any pane visualize the gripper, which tells the user that the main window is resizable
