Work in the Ward

When you open a Word recognized two main parts:

1. The tape located on the document, which contains a set of buttons and commands that allow to perform different actions with the document (for example, printing it). The tape will be discussed in more detail later in the course, and you work with her, doing the exercises at the end of the lesson;

2. Suppose a document that looks like a sheet of white paper and takes up almost the entire window.

The document locate the cursor - blinking vertical line in the upper left corner of the page. It indicates where the entered text will be shown. Appendix Word expects to start input.

To start putting down the page, press ENTER until the cursor is in the right place.

When entering text, the cursor moves to the right. When you reach the end of the line, just keep typing. The text and the insertion point is automatically moved to the next line.

After entering the first paragraph, press Enterto go to the next paragraph. If you want to increase the spacing between paragraphs, once again press Enter before entering the second paragraph.

If you make a mistake while entering, just press BACKSPACE, to "erase" the wrong characters or words.

When you enter a Word warns of a spelling or grammatical errors, emphasizing their wavy red, green or blue line:

red underlining - indicates a possible spelling error, or that the word (for example, the proper name or place name) is not recognized by Word;

green underlining - indicates the need for a grammar checker;

blue underline - indicates that the word is spelled correctly, but does not fit into this proposal. For example, the word "autumn", whereas the proposal should be "very". Note. This feature is available only if the input is done in English, Spanish or German.

What to do with underscores? Click the underlined word, right-click to see suggest corrections (sometimes Word does not offer such options). Click correction to replace the word in the document and remove the underline. Note that these are not visible to emphasize the pages of the printed document.

A word of warning about green and blue underlining: Word defines good spelling errors, most of which are fairly easy to fix. But to find grammatical errors, or errors of usage is much more difficult. If you think that you are right and wrong option Word offers, fashionable miss changes and remove the underscore.

Council. If you do not like to dwell on all underlining, you can just skip them during operation. After entering, you can check the spelling and grammar at the same time in one document.
