Introduction
Word processing was one of the first popular applications for the modern personal computer. In the early days it provided little more than the ability to enter and change text on the screen. Today, many more people have computers and tablets at home and in the office, and virtually all use a word processor regularly. As the years have passed, the capabilities of the computer and its software have dramatically increased, far beyond the expectations of the early generations of users back in the 1970s and 1980s.
Almost since the beginning, Microsoft Word has been acknowledged as a leader in its field. It is one of the best-selling software applications in any category. It grew in complexity from a program with a handful of menu commands to one with an astonishing array of features.
In updating Word, Microsoft has built logically on the foundation of the previous versions. Rather than relying on complex menus, Word works with tabbed visual controls that reconfigure themselves to suit what youâre currently doing. Accordingly, this book works as a graphical teaching guide â wherever possible, pictures and illustrated examples are used to demonstrate concepts. Itâs not intended to replace Microsoftâs documentation; instead you should view it as a way of getting up to speed quickly in a wide range of useful techniques.
The full range of Wordâs features is covered in this and the following chapters â from creating and editing simple text-based documents to tables, graphics and research tools, as well as more advanced techniques such as viewing and editing documents on the web.

Itâs very important to experiment using your own examples â trying techniques a few times on test documents will give you the confidence youâll need when working for real.
