This vertical strip of five icons, called the My Places toolbar, is a list of commonly used places in Windows. You can click on any icon and its contents will be displayed.
You can also click this drop-down menu to choose a place in Windows. Once you choose a location, its contents will be displayed.
This window displays the contents of the selected place. You can double-click on folders in this window to save or open documents in those locations.
Use the back button to go back to the previous folder. For example, if we doubleclicked on the My Folder icon in the sample above, we could then click Back to go to the Desktop. You can also use the up one level ( ) icon on this toolbar to go up one level.
Now that we know how to navigate, lets take a look at using the My Computer options to perform tasks.
First, you can delete a file or folder from this window. Just select it and then click the Delete button ( ) on the toolbar. You can also create a new folder in the location you have open by pressing Alt + 5 or clicking the New Folder button ( ) on the toolbar. The Tools menu at bottom of the dialogue summarizes some of the basic options: Delete, Rename, Print, Map Network Drive and Properties. (Depending on which dialogue you are in, you may have more or less options.)
You can also perform some basic Windows functions from within this window. If you right-click on a file or folder in the window, you will see the same commands you would see if you rightclicked on the file within Windows. Heres an example:
Lets go through each of these commands. Select Open Explore Search Send to Selects the folder. Opens the folder. Only available for folders. Opens the folder in a Windows Explorer (the more advanced version of My Computer) window. Only available for folders. Opens a Windows search window. Send the folder to common locations, like your desktop (as a shortcut), a zipped folder, writable media drive (such as a floppy drive), an e-mail recipient, or your My Documents folder. Cut or copy the selected file or folder.
Cut/Copy
Deletes the file or folder. Allows you to rename the file or folder. View the Windows properties for this file or folder.
In the sample above, we right-clicked on a folder. You would see some additional commands if we right-clicked on a file, including: Open Edit New Print Open With Opens the selected file. If the file cannot be opened with Microsoft Office Word 2007, then it will open using the default program. Opens the selected file for editing. If the file cannot be opened with Microsoft Office Word 2007, then it will open using the pre-defined program. Creates a new file of the selected type. Prints the selected file. Choose the application to open this folder with.
You may see different commands based on what programs you have installed. For example, if you have anti-virus software you may see commands to scan a file. In the sample window on the previous page, you can see some compression commands because that software package is installed.
Just click on the view you want to change how you see the contents of the large white window. Heres what each of the views do.
Thumbnails Displays each item as a small picture. If the item is a picture file, the thumbnail will show a preview.
Tiles Displays medium-sized icons for each file. Each files icon represents the program used to open it.
10
Icons Shows each file as a small icon. Each files icon represents the program used to open it.
11
Details Shows a detailed list for each file. You can click on the column headers (for example, where it says Name) to sort by that field.
Properties Divides the viewing window into two portions. One portion still displays files in the selected location; the other portion displays properties for the selected file.
12
Preview This view also splits the viewing window into two portions. This time, the right-hand side shows a preview of the selected document.
You can also change your view by right-clicking in a blank space in the My Computer window and clicking View.
13
No matter what view you are using, you can also use the Arrange By menu to arrange your files.
You can pick any of the values (Name, Size, Type, or Modified) to arrange your files that way. (You may have to right-click again and click Refresh for the view to apply.)
14
You can see that you can move the selected icon up or down in the list. You can also click Small Icons to change the size of the icons in the My Places toolbar. (If you were already using Small Icons, that option would be grayed out and you would only be able to choose Large Icons.)
15
This view can be useful if you add more places to the toolbar. You can do this by navigating to the folder (using the My Places toolbar or the drop-down navigation menu), and then rightclicking the My Places toolbar and clicking Add <folder name>.
If you have more than four places, you will also see arrows at the top and bottom of the list so that you can scroll through the other places.
16
As well, the Rename and Remove options will be enabled for your custom place:
The My Places toolbar will be available to you no matter what document you open, so you can customize it once and never have to do it again! You will also see your customizations in the other Office applications.
17
18
Then, choose a format from the drop-down menu at the bottom of the dialogue.
Heres a list of files that you can save directly to with Word 2007: .docx .docm .doc .dotx .dotm .dot .pdf .xps Words default format. Word documents with macros. The default format for Word documents in versions 97 to 2003. The format for Word 2007 templates. Word templates with macros. The default format for Word templates in versions 97 to 2003. Stands for Portable Document Format. This option will only be available if you have the appropriate add-in installed. (See the next concept.) Stands for XML Paper Specification. This option will only be available if you have the appropriate add-in installed. (See the next concept.)
19
Multilingual (or MIME) HyperText Markup Language. A Web page saved as a single file, also known as a Web archive. HyperText Markup Language, a format commonly used by Web sites. A Microsoft-proprietary document encoding format, similar to .doc but with less features. Plain text format, which can be opened by almost any word processing program, including WordPad and NotePad (which come with Windows). Extensible Markup Language file, also used to create Web sites. There are two options for XML files: Word 2003 and Word 2007. Default format for Works Suite 6.0 and 7.0.
You can also download converters from the Microsoft Web site to save files in other formats, like WordPerfect. Some file formats may not support all of the features you have in your document; if this is the case you will get a warning when you try to save to that format. This warning will let you know what aspects will be changed, and its up to you if you want to continue.
20
First, open Internet Explorer. Then, visit http://office.microsoft.com. At the top of the window, type PDF in the search window and then click Downloads for the type. Click Go to perform the search.
(Please note that Web sites can and do change!) Once you click Go, a results page will be displayed. Find the Office 2007 Microsoft Office Add-in: Microsoft Save as PDF or XPS link and click it.
Then, follow the instructions on the screen to download and install the add-in.
21
Now, you should see a Publish to PDF or XPS option under the Save As menu in the Office menu.
If you click on this option, you will see a Publish as PDF or XPS dialogue box.
22
In the dialogue box, choose either PDF or XPS in the Save As Type field. For either type, you can choose if the document should be published in Standard size (good for printing) or in Minimum Size (best for online publishing). (You can specify your choice by selecting the appropriate radio button at the bottom of the dialogue.)
23
If you click the Options button, you will see this dialogue appear on your screen.
With this dialogue you can specify specific pages to be published, or you can specify a selection or the entire document. You can also ensure that the file is ISO compliant by putting a check in the box at the bottom. There are also checkboxes that will allow you to include or exclude nonprinting information such as file properties or document structure information. Once you have chosen the settings you want, you can click the OK button to return to the Publish as PDF or XPS dialogue. You should make sure the file has a name in the File Name field of the dialogue and that the correct save location is specified in the Save In field. Once everything is ready, click the Publish button to create the PDF file.
24
25
Note that you will need a program like Adobes Acrobat Reader (available for free from www.adobe.com) to open PDF files.
26
27
Then you will see the General Options dialogue. First, decide what type of password you want. You can choose to have a password to open the document, to modify the document, or both. Once youve decided, enter the password in the proper text field, and click OK.
In this case, we applied a password that would need to be entered when the file is opened.
28
If you enter an incorrect password, you will not be able to open the file.
To remove the password, simply open the General Options dialogue and delete the text in the boxes.
Using AutoRecovery
Microsoft Office Word 2007 is a great programwhen it works. By now, youll probably have discovered that Word (and Windows) do not always work as they should. Murphys Law states that Word will blow up or Windows will crash just as youre finishing up that key document that has taken four hours and that youve forgotten to save. Oops! If something like that happens, Word may be able to recover your document. First, you should make sure that the AutoRecover feature is turned on. (If its not on when Word crashes, your document will probably be lost.) You can find the AutoRecover option by clicking the Office menu and clicking Word Options. Then, click the Save category.
29
To turn AutoRecover on, make sure that the Save AutoRecover information every * + minutes is checked. Then, specify how often you want Word to save your changes. You can also control where Word saves these backup copies.
30
Once you have AutoRecover information set, if Word or Windows crashes, you should see this task pane when you re-open Word:
This task pane should list all the files you had open when Word crashed, and the various versions of those files. In the sample above, our first file is one saved with AutoRecover at 4:07, while the second one was the last one the user saved at 3:58.
31
You can right-click on any file in this list to open the file, save it, or delete it. You can leave the task pane open while you view the different versions of your file until you determine which one you want to keep.
You may also see this pane if Word detects errors in your file while opening it. If this is the case, you can right-click on the repaired file and click Show Repairs. If you try to close the recovered file without having saved it, you will get this prompt:
You will then have the same options: to save or delete the recovered file, or to cancel out of the dialogue and return to the document.
32
Where does it get that file information? Believe it or not, that information is stored in your document! (You may have heard about politicians embarrassed by hidden information in their Word documents; this is where people found that information.)
33
To view the properties for your document, click the Office menu, choose Prepare, and click Properties.
34
You will then see the Properties pane appear between the editing window and the ribbon.
This pane has fields showing you what information is stored inside the document: the author, the title, the subject, keywords, the category, status, and comments. Word records the user name (entered in the Options dialogue) as the author name, and creates the title from the document name. The other fields are user-created. However, you can open the document properties window at any time and edit the content yourself.
35
You can also see more advanced properties by clicking the Document Properties button at the top of the pane and clicking Advanced Properties.
36
Heres a summary of each tab. General This tab cannot be edited. It tells you the type, location, and size of your document. It also gives you the MS-DOS name of the file; when it was created, modified, and last accessed; and shows you its Windows attributes (Read-only, Archive, Hidden, or System). This window will show you the title, subject, author, manager, company, category, keywords, comments, template, and hyperlink base for your document. Most of these will not be filled in by default; title will be filled in after you have saved your document, and author and company will be filled in according to the information you provided when you installed Office. You can click in any of the white text boxes and add, change, or delete information. You can also choose to save a preview picture of your document with this tab. This tab contains statistics about your document. These are automatically filled in by Word and cannot be edited. It will tell you when it was created, last modified, last accessed, and last printed. It will also display who edited it last, how long they worked on it for, and what revision number it is. A count of various elements (words, pages, paragraphs, characters, etc.) will also be displayed. Tab number four shows you your documents title or the first line of text. This tab will only contain information if you have already saved the file. You can use this tab to add a variety of custom properties to your document. This can be an easy, consistent way to track facts about a document, such as who it was checked by, which office it belongs to, or which typist created it.

Contents Custom
Once you have made your changes, click OK to apply them or click Cancel to discard them. You can then close the document properties pane by clicking the X in the right hand corner, or by clicking the Office menu, choosing Prepare, and clicking Properties again.
37
This tool will look through your document for personal information that may be hidden to you. When you click the command, you will be prompted to save your document if you have not already done so.
38
Once you click Yes or No, you can choose what items you want to inspect your document for.
We suggest that you leave all items checked, just to be safe. Once you click Inspect, the Document Inspector will look for the specified information.
39
40
We suggest that once you have removed the data that you click the Reinspect command to make sure that no traces remain.
41
Once you click this command, you will be warned of the action youre about to take.
42
When you click OK, another explanation will appear, unless it has been disabled.
When you click OK, the document will be marked as final. As the warning promised, the status is now Final, there is a Marked as Final icon in the status bar, and editing commands are disabled.
43
To remove the final status, click the Office menu, click Prepare, and click Mark as Final again. The document will be unmarked with no warnings.
44
45
Once you click the Encrypt command, a password box will appear.
Like entering a regular password, you must enter and then confirm the password. You will then need to enter this password whenever you open the file. The difference between encrypting a document and setting a password through the Save As dialogue is that encryption is much stronger. In most cases, if you want to set a password, encryption is the easiest, most reliable, and best option to use.
46
Digitally signing your document is like signing a piece of paper: it confirms your identity. For electronic documents, it also provides reassurance to the recipient that the document really came from you. Once you click the Add a Digital Signature command, you will see more information on the process.
47
Once you click OK, if you have a digital signature, you will be prompted to enter the purpose of signing the document. Once you click OK to this dialogue, your document will be signed.
If you dont have a digital signature, you will be prompted to obtain one.
If you are planning on using digital signatures, we recommend obtaining a digital identity from a Microsoft partner. (Some companies, such as www.comodo.com and www.dekart.com, offer free digital identities.) Creating a digital identity on your computer will not offer security to anyone but yourself.
48
If you choose the option to get a digital ID from a Microsoft partner and click OK, an Internet Explorer window will open so that you can complete the process.
Once you obtain the signature, go back to the Office menu, click Prepare, and click Add a Digital Signature. If you choose to create your own digital signature, you will be prompted to enter your information.
49
Once you click Create, you will be prompted to sign the document.
50
Once you click OK, you will see that the document has been signed and editing tools are disabled. You will also see an icon in the status bar indicating that the document has been signed.
51
You will then see a warning explaining the differences between the types of digital signatures.
If you click OK, you will then be prompted to set up the signature.
52
When you click OK, you will see the signature line in the document. If you are printing the document out, the recipient can manually sign it. Or, if youre transmitting it electronically, the recipient can right-click the signature line and digitally sign it.
53
54
55
Now, you will see a copy of the window. The title bar will have :2 in it, meaning it is a copy of another window.
56
57
Arranging Windows
If you have multiple documents open, you can arrange them all with the click of a button. Just click the Arrange Windows command on the View ribbon.
58
Heres what the screen will look like after we click Arrange All:
The three documents are still open, but they are all arranged so that you can see them all at one time. Note that each window has minimize, maximize, and close controls. You can also drag the title bar to move the window, or place your mouse at the bottom of the window and click to make the window smaller or bigger. To make the ribbons reappear, simply maximize a window.
59
Once you click Side by Side, you will be prompted to choose a document to compare the current one with, if you have more than one open.
60
Note that unlike arranging windows, ribbon commands are still available here, although they are compressed. Notice also that you can have different ribbons open in each window. Lets look at the commands on the Window chunk of the View ribbon that will be useful in this view.
The first command, View Side by Side, will turn the view on or off. The second option, Synchronous Scrolling, toggles simultaneous scrolling on or off. (If this feature is on, where you scroll to in one document will control where you scroll to in the other.) The last option lets you reset the two windows so that they take up the same amount of space on the screen.
61
Splitting a Document
The last feature on the Window chunk that were going to look at lets you be in two places at once! Its called splitting your document. To use this feature, first click the Split command on the View ribbon.
62
Then, your cursor will turn into a long bar. Click inside the editing window to place the split.
63
To remove it, click the Remove Split command on the View ribbon.
64
You can also place a split by clicking the small minus sign at the top of the scroll bar, dragging, and clicking.
65
66
To see more information, click Tell Me More. To proceed with the conversion, click OK. To stop the conversion, click Cancel. Make sure that you note the warning that says your original document will be replaced in this process. If you want to keep the original document, make sure you save it with a different name before converting.
67
Once you click this command, Word will look through your document for incompatibilities. It will then let you know what elements are incompatible and how they will be dealt with upon saving.
68
Some problems will have a solution; others are simply items you need to be aware of. Once you have made note of the possible issues, click OK. You can now decide what changes should be made before you save your document in the Word 2003 format.
You will then be presented with the typical Save As dialogue. Note that you will only see older Word documents in the chosen location due to the file type being saved.
69
Lets look at the Save category. Here, you can choose what format you want to save your documents in by default.
70
Here, you can choose to set options for just this document, another open document, or all current and future documents. You can also choose to lay out the document as if created in a certain version of Word (from 95 to 2007). You can also click the plus sign next to Layout Options to enable or disable particular settings.

75
76
Creating a Template
You have two options when creating a template. Your first option is to start from one of the templates included with Word. To do this, click the Office menu and click New. Then, choose a template in the New Document window from the Installed Templates list. Next, choose Template under Create New and click Create.
Now, you can customize the template to your liking. Remember that the information should be generic. In this example, you would want to include your name, but you would want to leave the date and the details of the report blank.
77
The other way that you can create a template is to start from a blank document and lay out the template the way you want it.
78
Saving a Template
Once youve typed in the standard information, click the Office menu and click Save.
If you used the New Document dialogue to create your template, Word will save it in the default location and save it as a template. All you need to do is type in the file name and click Save. If you started from a blank document, choose Word Template from the Save As Type list. Then, Word will save it in the proper template location.
79
This will open a window listing templates downloaded to and created on your computer.
Simply choose a template and click OK to open it. If you dont see your template listed here, you can also use the Open dialogue to locate and open it.
80
Using a Template
Once youve opened a user-created template, what do you do with it? Its easy: fill in the information.
Note that a blank document has been created from the template, so you dont have to worry about overwriting the template. Now, you can work with this document just as you would any other.
81
82
Then, choose the template that you want to attach to the document.
You will now be using the template. You may need to do some tweaking, but the structure will be there.
83
Types of Lists
There are three basic types of lists that you can create in Microsoft Office Word 2007. The first is a simple bulleted list.
84
You can also click the drop-down arrow next to either icon to choose a type other than the default.
85
Then, select the text that you want to identify as a level, and press the Tab key or use the Indent button on the Home ribbon that many times.
86
In the example on the previous page, we selected the three sub-points, and clicked the Increase Indent button ( ) on the Paragraph chunk once.
For bullets, you can choose a symbol and a font or a picture, and its alignment.
87
For numbers, you can choose a number style, font, format, and alignment.
88
For multilevel lists, you can adjust the alignment, indent, and appearance of each level.
89
Once created, the new styles will appear in the drop-down list for you to use.
90
Continuing a List
Lets say that you have a list of major points in your document.
And, lets say that you want to number some other points in your document.
91
If you have used the same numbering style, you can right-click on the second set of numbers and choose to continue the numbering. (You can also click Set Numbering Value to choose what number the list starts at.)
If Word has continued numbering and you wish to restart the numbering, that command will be available in the right-click menu. Note that you also have commands for indents, if you wish to create a multi-level list.
92
93
Applying Alignment
When you open the Paragraph dialogue, the first set of options you will see are related to alignment.
From the drop-down menu, you can choose left, right, or center alignment, or justified.
94
Applying Indentation
The next set of controls in the Paragraph dialogue lets us control indentation.
Here, you can indent from the left or the right, or you can check Mirror Indents to have options for inside and outside indents. You can also choose a first line or hanging indent from the Special menu, and then set the amount in the By text box. Note that as you change settings, you will see a preview in the bottom of the dialogue.
95
Applying Spacing
The last set of options in the dialogue is Spacing.
These options offer you much more control than the buttons on the Home ribbon. On the left, you can set the point value before and after the current paragraph. The options on the right hand side let you choose pre-defined line spaces. Heres an overview of the choices: Single 1.15 1.5 lines Provides a small space between lines. Default line spacing. Provides one and a half times the space of single spacing between lines.
96
Double At least
Provides double the space of single spacing between lines. Ensures a minimum amount of space between lines. This can be useful if youre combining large and small text in a line. Enter the font point size in the text box. Sets the exact space between lines. Enter a multiple number in the At box to set spacing at a certain multiple of single spacing. For example, you would enter the number 3 for text to be triple-spaced.
Exactly Multiple
The checkbox at the bottom allows you to remove the spaces between paragraphs of the same styles; well get to styles in the Advanced manual. You can combine before and after spacing with line spacing, and you can combine all spacing options with indent and alignment options.
97
98
Setting Defaults
If you would like, you can set the current paragraph settings to be the default for this document and future documents by clicking the Default command at the bottom of the dialogue.
Once you click this command, you will be asked to confirm your choice.
99
Sorting Text
Have you ever had a list of data and wanted to sort it alphabetically? The Sort command on the Paragraph chunk of the Home ribbon can help you do just that. First, select the text that you want to sort. Then, click the Sort command.
100
You will then see the Sort dialogue. Make sure Paragraphs is chosen in the Sort By menu. Then, choose Text, Numbers, or Date in the Type field.
101
Using Columns
Microsoft Word has the ability to divide your text into columns. To do this, first select the text that you want to format. Then, click the Page Layout ribbon. Next, click the Columns button and choose how many columns you want.
102
If you dont like the preset choices, you can click the More Columns button.
Here, you can set the number of columns (up to 45!) and the width and spacing for each. Once youre done, click OK to apply the changes. After you have inserted columns, Word will automatically break the text. However, you can also use the Breaks menu on the Page Layout ribbon to manually control where text is placed in the columns.
103
The difference is easier to see when we have formatting marks turned on. You can see the automatic paragraph break at the end of the second line (which happened when I pressed Enter) and a manual line break at the end of the third line.
To remove a line break, just backspace over it. Even if you cant see the special characters, Word will remove the break.
If you later want to remove a page break, place your cursor at the new page and press Backspace to remove the break.
104
105
If you later decide to change the type of break, open the Page Setup dialogue and click the Layout tab.
Using the menu at the top of the dialogue, you can choose to change the type of break. Note that each tab in the dialogue has an Apply To menu, where you can choose to apply your settings just to this section.
106
The first set of options deals with pagination. Lets look at each checkbox individually. Widow/Orphan control Keep with next Keep lines together Page break before This will keep your paragraphs together, so one line isnt stranded at the top or bottom of a page. This is turned on by default. Keeps paragraphs of the same style on the same page. Keeps all lines in a paragraph on the same page. Inserts a page break before paragraphs with this style
The next two options deal with more specific paragraph formatting. Suppress line numbers will skip line numbers for this section, while Dont hyphenate tells Word not to hyphenate paragraphs or words in this section. (These commands will only be effective if line numbering or automatic hyphenation have been turned on.)
107
You can see a preview of all settings in the Paragraph in the bottom portion of the window. You can also click the Tabs button to open the Tabs dialogue box, click Default to apply these settings to future documents, click OK to save your changes, or click Cancel to exit without saving your changes.
108
The page will then be added to the beginning of your document. All you have to do is add the information in the fields. Of course, you can add any other elements (such as your own graphics) if you like, too.
109
110
If you have put the time in to create a cover page that you really like, you can select the cover page and choose to save your selection to the Cover Page Gallery for future use. You can also remove the current cover page with this menu.
Simply click to place your cursor where you want the page to appear, and then click the Blank Page command.
111
112
You can choose from theme colors, standard colors, or no color. You can also click the More Colors option to create a custom color.
Or, click the Fill Effects option to see a range of gradients, fill effects, patterns, and pictures that you can apply to your page.
113
Adding a Watermark
For a more subtle background, try a watermark. (Watermarks can be text or pictures; they are typically washed out and appear in the background of the page.) You will find the Watermark menu on the Page Layout ribbon.
Simply click a watermark to apply it. You can also use the options at the bottom of the menu to create a custom watermark, remove the current watermark, and save the selection to the Watermark Gallery.
114
When you click this command, you will see this dialogue:
First, start by selecting a setting from the menu on the left-hand side. Then, use the options in the middle to choose a style, color, width, and/or art. Next, use the options on the right to choose what edges you want to have a border applied to. (For example, to remove the bottom line, you would click the button.) You can also use the menu to choose to apply the border to the whole document, a section, or a portion of a section.
115
As an example, look at this dialogue. Note which options we chose to obtain the desired effect.
116
117
Types of Links
There are four types of links that you can create: To an existing file Link to an existing file on your computer. (These links will not work if you send the document to someone else, as they will not have the file in the location you have specified.) Link to another place in this document. This is usually used in indexes and tables of contents. This is the most common type of file, called a hyperlink. Clicking on this type of link opens the specified page in an Internet browser window. Also called a mailto link. When you click this type of link a new e-mail message will open up in your e-mail program, with the information in the mailto link filled out.
To an e-mail address
In this lesson, were only going to cover hyperlinks and mailto links. Well save document and file links for the Expert manual.
118
Inserting a Link
If you type a Web address (say, http://www.microsoft.com), Word will automatically turn it into a hyperlink. You can manually turn text into a hyperlink by selecting the text you want to link and then clicking the Hyperlink button on the Insert ribbon.
When you click the Hyperlink button, you will see this window:
It looks complicated, but there are basically only two fields that you need to worry about. The first is the one at the top, which says Text to Display. This is the text that will turn blue and will contain the actual link. By default, the text you have selected will appear in here. (You can type in the box to change the text.) Then, at the bottom, type the Web address you want to point to (for example, http://myfavouritesite.com). Finally, click OK to save your changes, or click Cancel to discard them. (The OK button will not be lit up until both the Text to Display and the Address fields are filled in.) You can insert a link to an e-mail address one of two ways. You can simply type mailto:<emailaddress> in the Address field (replacing <e-mailaddress> with the address you want to link
119
to). Or, you can click on the E-mail Address option on the left hand side of the Insert Hyperlink window.
This box is similar to the Web Page box. You can change the text you want to display as a link using the first box. Then, type in the e-mail address you want to use. (You can enter multiple email addresses separated with a semicolon, like this: address1@company.com;address2@company.com.) If you have recently used the address in a hyperlink, you can click its entry in the bottom box to enter it in the E-mail address field. Next, type in the subject you want the e-mail to have. Then, click OK to complete the link! Weve only looked at adding links to text, but you can use the same steps to apply hyperlinks to pictures. Just select the picture, click Insert, click Hyperlink, and fill in your information.
120
Editing a Link
After you have inserted a hyperlink or a mailto link, you can edit it by right-clicking on it. Lets take a look at the hyperlink context menu and each of its options.
Edit Hyperlink Select Hyperlink Open Hyperlink Copy Hyperlink Remove Hyperlink
Opens the Insert Hyperlink dialogue box so you can make changes to your link. Selects the entire link. Opens the link. Copies the hyperlink to the clipboard. Removes the link from the text, but does not remove the text itself.
121
Following a Link
If you hold down the Ctrl key and place your mouse over a hyperlink, it will look like this:
A small window will appear above the link telling you what it points to. This is especially important if it isnt immediately obvious what clicking on the text will do, like in the sample photo. You certainly dont want to click on a link that will give you a virus! If the link looks OK, hold down the Ctrl key and click on the blue text. If its a hyperlink, your Internet browser will open to the page specified in the link. If its a mailto link, your e-mail program will open a blank message. The e-mail address(es) and the subject (if specified) will already be filled in; all you have to do is type in the body and send it. Once youve followed a hyperlink, it will change color:
(For the default theme, the color will become purple. Other themes will use different colors.) Even if a link has been followed, you can still use it by holding the Ctrl key and clicking it. Following a hyperlink is really easy; just make sure you know where youre being taken to before you click on the link.
122
Removing a Hyperlink
To remove the link from text, right-click the link and click Remove Hyperlink.

127
(Note the scroll bars on the side of the list; there are over 20 pre-set designs to choose from!) Once you click an option, the header will be inserted and replicated to every page. All you need to do is add text where indicated; your changes will be replicated as well. Note that you can format header and footer text just like you would any other.
Once youre done, click the Close button on the Header and Footer Tools Design ribbon.
128
To edit the header or footer, simply double-click any part of the text (even a blank area). This will re-open the Header and Footer Tools Design ribbon and place your cursor at the beginning of the header or footer.
When youre done, click the Close button on the Design ribbon.
129
130
You will then be prompted to confirm the header or footer information. We havent covered building blocks yet, so we suggest that you just click OK to this dialogue.
Once you click OK, you should see your header or footer in the appropriate menu.
131
The first two buttons let you toggle between the header and the footer. Then, you have commands to navigate between sections. (For more information on sections, see Lesson 2.4.) Last, you have a Link to Previous command, which well explore in Lesson 3.4.
132
Lesson 3.2: Using the Header and Footer Tools Design Ribbon
In the last lesson, we used a few commands on the special ribbon that opens when we create a header or footer. In this lesson, well take a closer look at the ribbon.
Insert Commands
Here you will find commands to add the date and time, Quick Parts (including document properties and fields), and graphics to your header or footer. (Well look at these commands in more detail in Lesson 3.4.)
133
Navigation Commands
We learned about this chunk in the last section.
The first two buttons let you toggle between the header and the footer. Then, you have commands to navigate between sections. (For more information on sections, see Lesson 2.4.) Last, you have a Link to Previous command, which well explore in Lesson 3.4.
You can choose to have a different header or footer for your first page and/or for odd and even pages. You can also choose to show or hide document text when editing the header/footer.
Position Options
This chunk lets you control the exact position of the header and the footer on the page. You can also align text, which well learn about in Lesson 3.4.
134
135
136
When you choose where you want your page number to go (top or bottom of page, or in the margin), you will see another menu:
137
You can also click the Current Position menu to see only those styles that have text in the current position of your cursor.
Just like pre-designed headers or footers, simply click the style that you want to apply.
138
139
And, if you create a selection that you would like to use later, you can save the selected page number to the gallery, using either the Top of Page or the Bottom of Page menu.
If you want to change the style of numbers, open the Page Number menu. Here, you will see a command to format page numbers.
140
When you click this command, you will see this dialogue:
Here, you can choose a number format, choose how to number the pages, and choose to include a chapter number. (These settings can be modified at any time.)
141
Aligning Text
The best way to align text in a header or footer is to use the Insert Alignment Tab command on the Header and Footer Tools Design ribbon. First, click to place your cursor in front of the text that you want to align. Then, click Insert Alignment Tab.
142
In the dialogue that opens, you can choose an alignment and a leader (characters that will fill the space between the margin and the text).
Adding Graphics
To add a graphic, first click where you want to place the image. Then, click either the Picture or the ClipArt button on the Insert chunk of the Header and Footer Tools Design ribbon. (You can also use the commands on the Insert ribbon.)
143
If you choose the Picture command, a dialogue will open so that you can browse to and choose your picture.
If you choose the ClipArt command, you will see a task pane so that you can search for a suitable photo. When you find a good picture, simply click it to insert it.
144
Note that you can resize photos simply by dragging the edges. Despite what you may see, the header or footer will adjust to accommodate the new size.
You can also use the Alignment Tab commands to align your photo.
145
When you click this command, you will see this dialogue:
Simply choose a format from the list on the left. You can also check Update automatically so that the current date and time is always displayed. Then, click OK. Note that you can align the date and time using the Insert Alignment Tab command, and you can format it using regular text tools.
146
Here is page 2 of our document. Notice how there is a section break at the end of the page.
147
Notice how the header for page 3 is the same, even though it is a new section. We need to click Link to Previous to un-link the two sections.
148
Now we can edit the header on the third page without affecting the second page. Note that there is also no longer a tag that says, Same as Previous.
Here, you can type in dimensions to set how far the header or the footer will appear from the top of the page.

152
You can also click the Default button to make this language the default for all new documents.
153
At the top, you have a list of spelling suggestions in bold. You can click any of these suggestions to replace the misspelled word with the selected word. You can also choose to ignore the word, ignore all instances of the word, or add the word to the dictionary. (This last option is handy if the word is correct but Word picks it up as incorrect.) The next set of options lets us tell Word how to AutoCorrect this error, set our language, perform a full spell check, and look up the word in the Research pane.
154
If you have made a grammar error, Word will underline it in green. You can right-click on the error to see options for correcting it. (Options will differ depend on the error selected.)
Like spelling errors, we have options in bold for correcting the error. You can also choose to ignore the error, run a full grammar check, or view help about the current error. If Word thinks you have used a word incorrectly (for example, their instead of there) it will underline it in blue. (This is a new feature in Microsoft Office Word 2007.) Like spelling or grammar errors, you can right-click the word to see suggestions.
155
Once you click the Spelling and/or Grammar command, Word will look for the first incorrect word or sentence.
In the dialogue that appears, you can choose from the following options: Ignore Once Ignore All Add to dictionary Change Ignore this particular word. Ignore this word every time it appears in this document. Add this word to the dictionary so it is never identified as incorrect again. Change this word to the word selected in the Suggestions box or to what you have typed in the top window.
156
Change all instances of this word to the word selected in the Suggestions box. When typing, automatically correct this word to the word selected in the Suggestion box. Choose to check grammar along with spelling. Change spelling and grammar options. Cancels the spell check.
Once you have clicked one of those options, Word will continue checking your document for errors. You will have to go through this process for each word that is identified as misspelled. Heres the window you will see if Word picks up a grammar error:
The same concepts apply to this box. (Note that the options may differ depending on the error detected.) At the top part of the screen, Word will show you the sentence it thinks is grammatically incorrect and will highlight the trouble part of the sentence. (You can type in this window to make changes to the sentence shown.) At the top of this window will be a brief explanation of what the trouble is; in the sample above it says Or or Nor. The bottom part of the grammar checking screen gives you suggestions on how to change the word or sentence. We also have buttons on the right hand side of the screen to choose how we want to treat this error: Ignore Once Ignore this error.
157
Ignore Rule Next Sentence Change Explain Check Grammar Options Undo Cancel
Ignore the rule that applies to this error. Skip this error without making any changes. Change the current sentence to the selected suggestion. Open a new window explaining this grammar concept. Choose to check grammar along with spelling. Change spelling and grammar options. Reverse the last change made. Cancels the spell check.
Once you have addressed all spelling and grammar errors, Word will let you know that the check is done.
Note that Word will not pick up on all spelling and grammar errors, especially if a word is spelled correctly but used incorrectly. You should always read through your document to make sure it is correct.
158
Here, you can set AutoCorrect options (which well discuss in the next lesson), choose exceptions and rules for your spell check, select custom dictionaries, and choose to hide or show spelling and grammar errors. Once your options are set, click OK to apply them and close the dialogue.
159
Controlling Hyphenation
In some situations, you may need a document to be hyphenated. Rather than trying to manage it yourself, let Word do the hard work. First, click the Page Layout ribbon. Then, click the Hyphenation button on the Page Setup chunk.
You can choose none, automatic, or manual. (Automatic will automatically hyphenate your document, while Manual will prompt you each time Word encounters a word that needs to be hyphenated.) You can also click Hyphenation Options to control how Word hyphenates your document.
You can click the Words item in the status bar or click the Word Count command in the Proofing chunk of the Review ribbon to perform a word count.
160
The Word Count dialogue will provide statistics on all parts of your document.
You can also check the Show Readability Statistics option in the Proofing section of Words options to see advanced statistics at the end of a spell check.
The top part offers a count of various elements in your document, much like the Word Count dialogue. Then, you can see averages of those elements. Next, you can see how easily readable your document is. The Flesch Reading Ease section will show a number from 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating easier reading. (The average document has a Flesch Reading Ease score
161
between 6 and 70.) The Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level section will tell you, on average, what grade could read this document. (Most business writing is written at a Grade 8 or 9 level; you can see that this document is far too simple for those purposes.)
162
Performing Research
You can use Words research tools to look up information, such as encyclopedia articles, definitions, and more. There are two ways to look up a word. The first is to right-click a particular word and click Look Up.
163
The other way is to click the Research button on the Proofing chunk of the Review ribbon.
Either way, you will see the Research task pane open on the right hand side of the screen.
Anything in blue is a hyperlink that you can click on to see more information. You can also type anything in the Search for box and click the green arrow to perform research on that topic.
164
You can even use the menu to choose what areas you search in.
165
If you dont see an appropriate word, click Thesaurus in the right-click menu or in the Review ribbon to open the full tool.
Now you can use the Research pane to find an appropriate synonym. Note that although we clicked Thesaurus, the word Research is lit up in the Review ribbon because the Research pane is turned on. (You can click the Research button again or click the X in the Research task pane to close the pane.)
166
Unlike the research feature, clicking on a word in the research pane wont replace the current word; it will just change your search.
You can, however, right-click a word and choose from the menu of options.
167
Translating a Word
If you want an easy way to translate a word or two, click the new Translation ScreenTips button on the Proofing chunk of the Review ribbon. Then, click a language.
For this example, well pick Spanish. Now, when you hover your mouse over a word, you will see a balloon appear with possible translations.
To turn the feature off, simply click the Translation ScreenTip button again and click Turn Off Translation ScreenTip.
168
Translating a Document
Obviously, if you want to translate an entire document, translation ScreenTips arent going to do you much good. Use the Translate feature instead.
Once you click this command, you will see instructions in the Research task pane. Simply choose your language and click the green arrow.
You will then see a warning explaining that your document will be sent in unencrypted format, which means that it may be viewed by others.
169
Notice the warning at the bottom (in Spanish in the example above) that states that as this is a computer translation, it may not be complete or accurate.
170
Here, we can see that Word automatically capitalized the first letter of our sentence. We can choose to undo this action or have Word stop auto-capitalizing.
171
If you click the third choice, Control AutoCorrect Options, you will see this dialogue:
172
Here, you can choose from a variety of options. Simply uncheck an option to disable it, or click an option to enable it. At the bottom, you also have a list of corrections. You can easily add or delete a correction using the fields provided.
You will then see a dialogue where you can choose from a number of date and time formats.
173
Simply click a format to choose it. Then, choose if you want the date and time to be static or to update automatically. (This option is found just above the OK button.) When youre ready, click OK. Note that dates and times can be formatted like regular text.
174
Inserting a Symbol
You will also find a command to insert symbols on the Insert ribbon. Click the Symbol button and then click a symbol from the recently used list.
175
If the symbol youre looking for isnt here, click More Symbols to display the older style dialogue.
Pick the font you want to use. By default, Word will display symbols in the current font. Choosing a font can be important as some fonts (such as Wingdings) are all symbols and contain symbols not seen in other fonts. Click a symbol to select it for insertion, or use the scroll bar to scroll through the symbols. (Scrolling may change the font and/or subset.) Click the Insert button to insert the selected symbol into your document. Once you click the Insert button, the Cancel button will become a Close button.
You can also use the AutoCorrect button or the Shortcut Key button to make inserting this symbol easier in the future.
176
If you want to format or delete the symbol, you can do so just as you would format normal text.
177
Then, simply click a character to select it and then click Insert. You can also view and edit the AutoCorrect and Shortcut Key commands using the buttons at the bottom.
178
179
Then, click the Advanced section. Under Display, make sure Show Smart Tags is checked.
180
Next, click the Add-Ins category. At the bottom, choose Smart Tags from the Manage menu and click Go.
181
First, make sure Label text with smart tags and Show Smart Tag Actions buttons are checked. Then, check the Smart Tags that you want to appear. Finally, click Check Document to make sure text that has already been entered is labeled with Smart Tags. Then, click OK.
182
Convert from metric to imperial or vice-versa. Send an e-mail, add the person to your contacts, or schedule a meeting. Additional options will be available if the person is in your Outlook contacts. Allows you to obtain driving directions, add the address to your Outlook contacts, and view a map. Allows you to place a call and add the number to your contacts. Allows you to schedule appointments.

Using Themes
Themes are a combination of preset colors, fonts, and effects. To apply a theme, click the Page Layout ribbon and click the Themes button. As you mouse over each theme, you will see a preview applied to your document (if you have theme elements such as page backgrounds, headers, or diagrams). Simply click the new theme to apply it. In the sample image on the previous page, the Verve theme was applied. Because we used headings and theme colors to format the document, Word will update each item as we mouse over new themes.
Note that the Themes menu also contains commands to reset the current theme, find more themes, browse for theme files, and save the current theme.
190
You can also click Create New Theme Colors to set your own major and minor font groups.
191
Once again, you can mouse over each option to see a preview applied to your document. You can also click Create New Theme Fonts to create your very own personalized theme.
192
If any effects are visible in your document, you will see a preview applied to it.
193
Record
The easiest way to perform a mail merge is by using the Mail Merge wizard, so were going to devote this whole section to the various options in the wizard.
194
You will then see a task pane on the right hand side of your screen, prompting you to choose a document type.
195
For this example, well stick with letters. The remaining steps may differ slightly depending on the document youre creating, but the basic concept remains the same.
196
In this case, weve already created a letter, so well choose the current document. (Note that you can also use a template or an existing document, meaning a document that youve created but isnt open.) Once youve chosen the document, click Next.
197
Selecting Recipients
Step 3 of the Mail Merge Wizard prompts you to choose who the mailings will be sent to. Depending on the option you select, your choices will be different.
Once you pick a source and choose the specific list (or type a new list), you will be prompted to choose the recipients.
198
Simply check a contact to include it or uncheck a contact to remove it. Note that there are tools at the bottom of the dialogue that can help you sort, filter, find, and manage your addresses. These tools can be very useful if you have a large list. Once you click OK, you can click Next in the task pane to proceed to the next step.
199
If you havent already done so, you can type the text that will be the same for each document. You can also click inside the document and then click each link to specify more information about the field. For example, if we click Address Block, we will be prompted to format the address block:
200
These fields will then appear in your document with angle brackets around them. They will be customized for each recipient when you perform the merge.
201
If you need to make any changes to the recipients, click Edit Recipient List in the task pane. You can also click the Previous link in the task pane to go back to any step. If youre all set, click Next to proceed to Step 6.
These options will vary depending on the document type that youre creating. In this case, we can edit the individual letters or we can simply choose to print them. In either case, the merge will be performed to a new document so that you can still make changes to the original letter and re-merge them.
202
Create
Envelopes
Click this button to open a special dialogue that will allow you to create envelopes. Click this button to open a special dialogue that will allow you to create labels. Choose what kind of mail merge you want to start. Choose the source for your recipient list. Make changes to your recipient list. Highlight fields that will be merged to each record. Create and insert an address block merge field. Create and insert a greeting line merge field.

Once you choose a source, you will see a dialogue prompting you for more information. If you ever need to edit the list, click Edit Recipient List (next to Select Recipients).
Adding Fields
To add fields, place your cursor where you want the field to appear and click any field name in the Write and Insert Fields chunk of the Mailings ribbon.
You will then be prompted to customize that element, just as we did with the Mail Merge wizard.
205
Adding Rules
Rules are like fields, except that they operate on conditions. To add a rule, first click to place your cursor at the position that you want the rule. Then, click the Rules button on the Write and Insert Fields chunk of the Mailings ribbon and click the rule that you want.
Lets take a look at each option. Ask If you have created bookmarks, insert this field at the beginning of your document. Then, Word will ask you what text you want to put in and place that text at each bookmark as it merges each record. (Text can be different for each record.) When you complete the merge, Word will ask you what text you want to place in this field as it merges each record. This dialogue box lets you set exceptions for your merge. If a field equals a certain value, Word will insert a certain text string. Else, Word will insert a different text string. This will add a number to each label. Counts the number of successfully merged records. Inserts the next record into the current document. Inserts next record into the current document if conditions are met. Sets a bookmark at a specified location. In a mail merge, bookmarks are mainly used to indicate where to insert Ask text. Skips the record if certain conditions are met.
Fill-in IfThenElse
Merge Record # Merge Sequence # Next Record Next Record If Set Bookmark Skip Record If
206
Note that this command can be toggled on and off, giving you an easy way to check what the finished product will look like. Once your document is ready to be merged, click the Finish and Merge button and choose your option.
207
Faxing a Document
If you have subscribed to an Internet fax service, you will be able to send your document via fax. Simply click the Office menu, click Send, and click Internet Fax.
Your Internet fax provider (or an e-mail window) will then open. Follow the programs directions to send your fax.
208
A new Outlook window will open. Simply type in your recipient, type your message, and click Send.
209
210
If you click either of these options, an Outlook window will open with your document as that type of attachment.
Once again, simply type in your recipient, type your message, and click Send.
