Preface Welcome to Microsoft® Word 2010—Illustrated Complete. If this is your first experience with the Illustrated series, you’ll see that this book has a unique design: each skill is presented on two facing pages, with steps on the left and screens on the right. The layout makes it easy to learn a skill without having to read a lot of text and flip pages to see an illustration.

Each two-page spread focuses on a single skill.

UNIT

This book is an ideal learning tool for a wide range of learners—the “rookies” will find the clean design easy to follow and focused with only essential information presented, and the “hotshots” will appreciate being able to move quickly through the lessons to find the information they need without reading a lot of text. The design also makes this a great reference after the course is over! See the illustration on the right to learn more about the pedagogical and design elements of a typical lesson.

A Word 2010

STEPS TROUBLE If you don’t see the extension .docx as part of the filename, the setting in Windows to display file extensions is not active.

A case scenario motivates the the steps and puts learning in context.

Saving a Document To store a document permanently so you can open it and edit it at another time, you must save it as a file. When you save a document you give it a name, called a filename, and indicate the location where you want to store the file. Files created in Word 2010 are automatically assigned the .docx file extension to distinguish them from files created in other software programs. You can save a document using the Save button on the Quick Access toolbar or the Save command on the File tab. Once you have saved a document for the first time, you should save it again every few minutes and always before printing so that the saved file is updated to reflect your latest changes. You save your memo using a descriptive filename and the default file extension.

1. Click the Save button

on the Quick Access toolbar

The first time you save a document, the Save As dialog box opens, as shown in Figure A-5. The default filename, Memorandum, appears in the File name text box. The default filename is based on the first few words of the document. The default file extension, .docx, appears in the Save as type list box. Table A-3 describes the functions of some of the buttons in the Save As dialog box.

2. Type WD A-Morocco Tour Memo in the File name text box The new filename replaces the default filename. Giving your documents brief descriptive filenames makes it easier to locate and organize them later. You do not need to type .docx when you type a new filename.

3. Navigate to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files You can navigate to a different drive or folder in several ways. For example, you can click a drive or folder in the Address bar or the navigation pane to go directly to that location. Click the double arrow in the Address bar to display a list of drives and folders. You can also double-click a drive or folder in the folder window to change the active location. When you are finished navigating to the drive or folder where you store your Data Files, that location appears in the Address bar. Your Save As dialog box should resemble Figure A-6.

What’s New In This Edition • Fully Updated. Highlights the new features of Microsoft Word 2010 and, features updated examples and exercises throughout including coverage on tools to create research papers, including adding citations, endnotes, and bibliographies. Extensive coverage of new graphics features including Background Removal, screenshots, and Artistic Effects; exploring the new Navigation pane and the Selection and Visibility pane; exploring Open Type Features, using new paste options to integrate other applications into Word; and creating custom Ribbons. A new appendix covers cloud computing concepts and using Microsoft Office Web Apps.

Introduction briefly explains why the lesson skill is important.

QUICK TIP To save a document so it can be opened in an older version of Word, click the Save as type list arrow, then click Word 97-2003 Document (*.doc).

4. Click Save The document is saved to the drive and folder you specified in the Save As dialog box, and the title bar displays the new filename, WD A-Morocco Tour Memo.docx.

5. Place the insertion point before conference in the first sentence, type large, then press [Spacebar] You can continue to work on a document after you have saved it with a new filename.

6. Click Your change to the memo is saved. After you save a document for the first time, you must continue to save the changes you make to the document. You also can press [Ctrl][S] to save a document.

Windows Live and Microsoft Office Web Apps All Office programs include the capability to incorporate feedback— called online collaboration—across the Internet or a company network. Using cloud computing (work done in a virtual environment), you can take advantage of Web programs called Microsoft Office Web Apps, which are simplified versions of the programs found in the Microsoft Office 2010 suite. Because these programs are online, they take up no computer disk space and are accessed using Windows

Word 8

Live SkyDrive, a free service from Microsoft. Using Windows Live SkyDrive, you and your colleagues can create and store documents in a “cloud” and make the documents available to whomever you grant access. To use Windows Live SkyDrive, you need a free Windows Live ID, which you obtain at the Windows Live Web site. You can find more information in the “Working with Windows Live and Office Web Apps” appendix.

Creating Documents with Word 2010

Tips and troubleshooting advice, right where you need it–next to the step itself.

Read This Before You Begin Frequently Asked Questions What are Data Files? A Data File is a partially completed Word document or another type of file that you use to complete the steps in the units and exercises to create the final document that you submit to your instructor. Each unit opener page lists the Data Files that you need for that unit.

Where are the Data Files? Your instructor will provide the Data Files to you or direct you to a location on a network drive from which you can download them. For information on how to download the Data Files from cengagebrain.com, see the inside back cover.

What software was used to write and test this book? This book was written and tested using a typical installation of Microsoft Office 2010 Professional Plus on a computer with a typical installation of Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate. The browser used for any Web-dependent steps is Internet Explorer 8.

Do I need to be connected to the Internet to complete the steps and exercises in this book? Some of the exercises in this book require that your computer be connected to the Internet. If you are not connected to the Internet, see your instructor for information on how to complete the exercises.

What do I do if my screen is different from the figures shown in this book? This book was written and tested on computers with monitors set at a resolution of 1024 ⫻ 768. If your screen shows more or less information than the figures in the book, your monitor is probably set at a higher or lower resolution. If you don't see something on your screen, you might have to scroll down or up to see the object identified in the figures. The Ribbon—the blue area at the top of the screen—in Microsoft Office 2010 adapts to different resolutions. If your monitor is set at a lower resolution than 1024 ⫻ 768, you might not see all of the buttons shown in the figures. The groups of buttons will always appear, but the entire group might be condensed into a single button that you need to click to access the buttons described in the instructions.

STEPS

Star ting Windows 7 Windows 7 is an operating system, which is a program that lets you run your computer. A program is a set of instructions written for a computer. When you turn on your computer, the Windows 7 operating system starts automatically. If your computer did not have an operating system, you wouldn’t see anything on the screen when you turn it on. For each user, the operating system can reserve a special area called a user account where each user can keep his or her own files. If your computer is set up for more than one user, you might need to log in, or select your user account name when the computer starts. If you are the only user on your computer, you won’t have to select an account. You might also need to enter a password, a special sequence of numbers and letters each user can create. A password allows you to enter and use the files in your user account area. Users cannot see each others’ account areas without their passwords, so passwords help keep your computer information secure. After you log in, you see a welcome message, and then the Windows 7 desktop. You will learn about the desktop in the next lesson. Your supervisor, Evelyn Swazey, asks you to start learning about the Windows 7 operating system.

On a desktop computer, the power button is probably on the front panel. On a laptop computer it’s most likely at the top of the keys on your keyboard. After a few moments, a Starting Windows message appears. Then you might see a screen that lets you choose a user account, as shown in Figure A-1.

2. Click a user name if necessary The name you click represents your user account that lets you use the computer. The user account may have your name assigned to it, or it might have a general name, like Student, or Lab User. A password screen may appear. If necessary, ask your instructor or technical support person which user account and password you should use.

3. Type your password if necessary, using uppercase and lowercase letters as necessary, as shown in Figure A-2 Passwords are case sensitive, which means that if you type any letter using capital letters when lowercase letters are needed, Windows will not allow you to access your account. For example, if your password is “book”, typing “Book” or “BOOK” will not let you enter your account. As you type your password, its characters appear as a series of dots on the screen. This makes it more difficult for anyone watching you to see your password, giving you additional security.

4. Click the Go button You see a welcome message, and then the Windows 7 desktop, shown in Figure A-3.

DETAILS

Learning the Windows 7 Desktop After Windows 7 starts up, you see the Windows 7 desktop. The desktop consists of a shaded or picture background with small graphics called icons. Icons are small images that represent items such as the Recycle Bin on your computer. You can rearrange, add, and delete desktop icons. Like an actual desktop, the Windows 7 desktop acts as your work area. You can use the desktop to manage the files and folders on your computer. A file is a collection of stored information, such as a letter, video, or program. A folder is a container that helps you organize your files, just like a cardboard folder on your desk. If you’re using a new installation of Windows, the desktop might show only a Recycle Bin icon in the upper-left corner and the taskbar, the horizontal bar at the bottom of your screen. Evelyn asks you to explore the Windows 7 desktop to begin learning how to communicate with your computer.

Windows 7 computers show these desktop elements. Refer to Figure A-4. • Start button The Start button is your launching point when you want to communicate with your computer. You can use the Start button to start programs, to open windows that show you the contents of your computer, and to end your Windows session and turn off your computer. QUICK TIP If your taskbar is a different color than the one in Figure A-4, your computer might have different settings. This won’t affect your work in this chapter.

• Taskbar The taskbar is the horizontal bar at the bottom of the desktop. The taskbar contains the Start button as well as other buttons representing programs, folders, and files. You can use these buttons to immediately open programs or view files and programs that are on your computer.

• Notification area The notification area at the right side of the taskbar contains icons that represent informational messages and programs you might find useful. It also contains information about the current date and time. Some programs automatically place icons here so they are easily available to you. The notification area also displays pop-up messages when something on your computer needs your attention.

• Recycle Bin Like the wastepaper basket in your office, the Recycle Bin is where you place the files and folders that you don’t need anymore and want to delete. All objects you place in the Recycle Bin stay there until you empty it. If you put an object there by mistake, you can easily retrieve it, as long as you haven’t emptied the bin.

• Desktop background The desktop background is the shaded area behind your desktop objects. You can change the desktop background to show different colors or even pictures.

You might see the following on your desktop: • Icons and shortcuts On the desktop background, you can place icons called shortcuts, which you can double-click to access programs, files, folders, and devices that you use frequently. That way, they are immediately available to you.

• Gadgets Gadgets are optional programs that present helpful or entertaining information on your desktop. They include items such as clocks, current news headlines, calendars, picture albums, and weather reports. Some gadgets come with Windows 7 and you can easily place them on your desktop. You can download additional gadgets from the Internet. Figure A-5 shows a desktop that has a desktop background picture and shortcuts to programs, folders, and devices, as well as four gadgets.

What if my desktop looks different from these figures? If you are using a computer that has been used by others, a different version of Windows 7, or a computer in a school lab, your desktop might be a different color, it might have a different design on it, or it

might have different shortcuts and gadgets. Your Recycle Bin might be in a different desktop location. Don’t be concerned with these differences. They will not interfere with your work in these units.

STEPS

Pointing and Clicking After you start Windows 7 and see the desktop, you can communicate with Windows using a pointing device. A pointing device controls the movement of the mouse pointer on your computer screen. The mouse pointer is a small arrow or other symbol that moves on the screen. The mouse pointer’s shape changes depending on where you point and on the options available to you when you point. Your pointing device could be a mouse, trackball, touchpad, pointing stick, on-screen touch pointer, or a tablet. Figure A-6 shows some common pointing devices. A pointing device might be attached to your computer with a wire, connect wirelessly using an electronic signal, or it might be built into your computer. There are five basic pointing device actions you use to communicate with your computer: pointing, As you clicking, double-clicking, dragging, and right-clicking. Table A-1 describes each action. prepare to work on your tour schedule, you communicate with your computer using the basic pointing device actions.

1. Locate the mouse pointer on the desktop, then move your pointing device left, right, up, and down The mouse pointer moves in the same direction as your pointing device.

2. Move your pointing device so the mouse pointer is over the Recycle Bin You are pointing to the Recycle Bin. The pointer shape is the Select pointer . The Recycle Bin icon becomes highlighted, looking as though it is framed in a box with a lighter color background and a border. QUICK TIP Use the tip of the pointer when pointing to an object.

3. While pointing to the Recycle Bin, press and quickly release the left mouse button once, then move the pointer away from the Recycle Bin Click a desktop icon once to select it, and then the interior of the border around it changes color. When you select an icon, you signal Windows 7 that you want to perform an action. You can also use pointing to identify screen items.

4. Point to (but do not click) the Internet Explorer button

on the taskbar

The button border appears and an informational message called a ScreenTip identifies the program the button represents.

5. Move the mouse pointer over the time and date in the notification area in the lowerright corner of the screen, read the ScreenTip, then click once A pop-up window appears, containing a calendar and a clock displaying the current date and time. TROUBLE You need to doubleclick quickly, with a fast click-click, without moving the mouse. If a window didn’t open, try again with a faster click-click.

6. Place the tip of the mouse pointer over the Recycle Bin, then quickly click twice You double-clicked the Recycle Bin. A window opens, showing the contents of the Recycle Bin, shown in Figure A-7. The area near the top of the screen is the Address bar, which shows the name of the item you have opened. If your Recycle Bin contains any discarded items, they appear in the white area below the Address bar. You can use single clicking to close a window.

7. Place the tip of the mouse pointer over the Close button in the upper-right corner of the Recycle Bin window, notice the Close ScreenTip, then click once The Recycle Bin window closes. You can use dragging to move icons on the desktop.

QUICK TIP You’ll use dragging in other Windows 7 programs to move folders, files, and other objects to new locations.

Windows 6

8. Point to the Recycle Bin icon, press and hold down the left mouse button, move the pointing device (or drag your finger over the touchpad) so the object moves right about an inch, as shown in Figure A-8, then release the mouse button You dragged the Recycle Bin icon to a new location.

9. Repeat Step 8 to drag the Recycle Bin back to its original location

STEPS

Star ting a Windows 7 Program The Windows 7 operating system lets you operate your computer and see the programs and files it contains. But to do your work, you’ll need application programs. Application programs let you create letters, financial summaries, and other useful documents as well as view Web pages on the Internet and send and receive e-mail. Some application programs, called accessories, come with Windows 7. (See Table A-2 for some examples of accessories that come with Windows 7.) To use an application program, you must start (or open) it so you can see and use its tools. With Windows 7 you start application programs using the Start menu. A menu is a list of related commands. You use the Start menu to open the All Programs menu, which contains all the application programs on your computer. You can see some programs on the All Programs menu; some are in folders you have to click first. To start a program, you click its name on the All Programs menu. Evelyn asks you to explore the Paint accessory program for creating brochure graphics.

1. Click the Start button

on the taskbar in the lower-left corner of screen

The Start menu opens, showing frequently used programs on the left side. The gray area on the right contains links to folders and other locations you are likely to use frequently. It also lets you get help and shut down your computer. See Figure A-10. Not all the programs available on your computer are shown.

2. Point to All Programs This menu shows programs installed on your computer. Your program list will differ, depending on what you (or your lab) have installed on your machine. Some program names are immediately available, and others are inside folders.

3. Click the Accessories folder A list of Windows accessory programs appears, as shown in Figure A-11. The program names are indented to the right from the Accessories folder, meaning that they are inside that folder.

4. Move the

pointer over Paint and click once

The Paint program window opens on your screen, as shown in Figure A-12. When Windows opens an application program, it starts the program from your computer’s hard disk, where it’s permanently stored. Then it places the program in your computer’s memory so you can use it.

5. If your Paint window fills the screen completely, click the Restore Down button the upper-right corner of the window

DETAILS

Working with Windows When you start an application program, its program window opens, showing you the tools you need to use the program. A new, blank file also opens. In the Paint program, you create a drawing that you can save as a file and print. All windows in the Windows 7 operating system have similar window elements. Once you can use a window in one program, you can then work with windows in many other programs. As you develop your tour marketing plans, you work with the open Paint window using Windows 7 elements.

Many windows have the following common elements. Refer to Figure A-13: •

QUICK TIP If your Ribbon looks different from Figure A-13, your window is a little narrower. A narrow window collapses some buttons so you can only see group names. In that case, you might need to click a group name to see buttons.

STEPS

•

•

•

At the top of every open window, you see a title bar, a transparent or solid-colored strip that contains the name of the program and document you opened. This document has not been saved, so it has the temporary name “Untitled.” On the right side of the title bar, you see three icons. The Minimize button temporarily hides the window, making it a button on the taskbar. The program is still running, but its window is hidden until you click its taskbar button to display it again. The Maximize button enlarges the window to fill the entire computer screen. If a window is already maximized, the Maximize button changes to the Restore Down button . Restoring a closes the program. To use window reduces it to the last nonmaximized size. The Close button it later, you need to start it again. Many windows have a scroll bar on the right side and/or on the bottom of the window. You click the scroll bar elements to show parts of your document that are hidden below the bottom edge or off to the right side of the screen. See Table A-3 to learn the parts of a scroll bar. Just below the title bar, at the top of the Paint window, is the Ribbon, a strip that contains tabs. Tabs are pages that contain buttons that you click to perform actions. The Paint window has two tabs, the Home tab and the View tab. Tabs are divided into groups of command buttons. The Home tab has five groups: Clipboard, Image, Tools, Shapes, and Colors. Some programs have menus, words you click to show lists of commands, and toolbars, containing program buttons. The Quick Access toolbar, in the upper-left corner of the window, lets you quickly perform common actions such as saving a file.

1. Click the Paint window Minimize button

TROUBLE If your screen resolution is set higher than 1024 ⫻ 768, you might not see a scroll box. You can continue with the lesson.

QUICK TIP To quickly restore down the selected window, press and hold down the key and then press the down arrow key.

The program is now represented only by its button on the taskbar. See Figure A-14. The taskbar button for the Paint program now has a gradient background with blue and white shading . Taskbar buttons for closed . programs have a solid blue background

2. Click the taskbar button representing the Paint program The program window reappears.

3. Drag the Paint scroll box down, notice the lower edge of the Paint canvas that appears, then click the Paint Up scroll arrow until you see the top edge of the canvas In the Ribbon, the Home tab is in front of the View tab.

4. Point to the View tab with the tip of the mouse pointer, then click the View tab once The View tab moves in front of the Home tab and shows commands for viewing your drawings. The View tab has three groups: Zoom, Show or hide, and Display.

STEPS

Working with Multiple Windows Windows 7 lets you work with more than one program at a time. If you open two or more programs, a window opens for each one. You can work with each open program window, going back and forth between them. The window in front is called the active window. Any other open window behind the active window is called an inactive window. For ease in working with multiple windows, you can move, arrange, make them smaller or larger, minimize, or restore them so they’re not in the way. To resize a window, drag a window’s edge, called its border. You can also use the taskbar to switch between windows. See Table A-4 for a summary of taskbar actions. Keeping the Paint program open, you open the WordPad program and work with the Paint and WordPad program windows.

1. With the Paint window open, click the Start button Accessories folder, then click WordPad QUICK TIP To click an inactive window to make it active, click its title bar, window edge, or a blank area. To move a window, you must drag its title bar.

QUICK TIP To instantly minimize all inactive windows, point to the active window’s title bar, and quickly “shake” the window back and forth. This feature is called Aero Shake.

TROUBLE Point to any edge of a window until you or see the pointer and drag to make it larger or smaller in one direction only.

, point to All Programs, click the

The WordPad window opens in front of the Paint window. See Figure A-15. The WordPad window is in front, indicating that it is the active window. The Paint window is the inactive window. On the taskbar, the gradient backgrounds on the WordPad and Paint program buttons on the taskbar tell you that both programs are open. You want to move the WordPad window out of the way so you can see both windows at once.

2. Point to a blank part of the WordPad window title bar, then drag the WordPad window so you can see more of the Paint window 3. Click once on the Paint window’s title bar The Paint window is now the active window and appears in front of the WordPad window. You can make any window active by clicking it. You can use the taskbar to do the same thing. You can also move among open program windows by pressing and holding down the [Alt] key on your keyboard and pressing the [Tab] key. A small window opens in the middle of the screen, showing miniature versions of each open program window. Each time you press [Tab], you select the next open program window. When you release [Tab] and [Alt], the selected program window becomes active.

4. On the taskbar, click the WordPad window button The WordPad window is now active. When you open multiple windows on the desktop, you may need to resize windows so they don’t get in the way of other open windows. You can use dragging to resize a window.

5. Point to the lower-right corner of the WordPad window until the pointer becomes then drag up and to the left about an inch to make the window smaller

,

Windows 7 has a special feature that lets you automatically resize a window so it fills half the screen.

6. Point to the WordPad window title bar, drag the window to the left side of the screen until the mouse pointer reaches the screen edge and the left half of the screen turns a transparent blue color, then release the mouse button The WordPad window “snaps” to fill the left side of the screen.

7. Point to the Paint window title bar, then drag the window to the right side of the screen until it snaps to fill the right half of the screen The Paint window fills the right side of the screen. The Snap feature makes it easy to arrange windows side by side to view the contents of both at the same time.

8. Click the WordPad window Close button the Paint window’s title bar

then click the Maximize button

in

The WordPad program closes, so you can no longer use its tools unless you open it again. The Paint program window remains open and fills the screen. Windows 12

Switching windows with Windows Aero Windows Aero is a set of special effects for Windows 7. If your windows have transparent “glass” backgrounds like those shown in the figures in this book, your Aero feature is turned on. Your windows show subtle animations when you minimize, maximize, and move windows. When you arrange windows using Aero, your windows can appear in a three-dimensional stack that you can quickly view without having to click the taskbar. To achieve this effect, called Aero Flip 3D, press and hold [Ctrl][ ], then press [Tab]. Press [Tab]

repeatedly to move through the stack, then press [Enter] to enlarge the document in the front of the stack. In addition, when you point to a taskbar button, Aero shows you small previews of the document, photo, or video—a feature called Aero Peek. Aero is turned on automatically when you start Windows, if you have an appropriate video card and enough computer memory to run Aero. If it is not on, to turn on the Aero feature, right-click the desktop, left-click Personalize, then select one of the Aero Themes.

TROUBLE Don’t be concerned if your object isn’t exactly like the one in the figure.

Using Command But tons, Menus, and Dialog Boxes When you work in an open program window, you communicate with the program using command buttons, menus, and dialog boxes. Command buttons let you issue instructions to modify program objects. Command buttons are sometimes organized on a Ribbon into tabs, and then into groups like those in the Paint window. Some command buttons have text on them, and others only have icons that represent what they do. Other command buttons reveal menus, lists of commands you can choose. And some command buttons open up a dialog box, a window with controls that lets you tell Windows what you want. Table A-5 lists the common types of controls you find in dialog boxes. You use command buttons, menus, and dialog boxes to communicate with the Paint program.

You should also know how to organize them so you can always find ate a document and save it as a file, it is important that you save the file in a place where you can find it later. To keep your computer files organized, you will need to copy, move, and rename them. When you have files you don’t need any more, it’s a good idea to move or delete them so your computer has only current files.

Your supervisor, Evelyn

Swazey, asks you to learn how to manage your computer files so you can begin creating and organizing documents for the upcoming Oceania tours.

DETAILS

Understanding Folders and Files As you work with your computer programs, you create and save files, such as letters, drawings, or budgets. When you save files, you usually save them inside folders, which are storage areas on your computer. You use folders to group related files, as with paper folders in a file cabinet. The files and folders on your computer are organized in a file hierarchy, a system that arranges files and folders in different levels, like the branches of a tree. Figure B-1 shows a sample file hierarchy. Evelyn asks you to look at some important facts about files and folders to help you store your Oceania tour files.

Use the following guidelines as you organize files using your computer’s file hierarchy: • Use folders and subfolders to organize files As you work with your computer, you can add folders to your hierarchy and rename them to help you organize your work. You should give folders unique names that help you easily identify them. You can also create subfolders, which are folders that are inside of other folders. Windows comes with several existing folders, such as My Documents, My Music, and My Pictures, that you can use as a starting point. QUICK TIP You can also start Windows Explorer by clicking the Windows Explorer button on the taskbar.

• View files in windows You view your computer contents by opening a window, like the one in Figure B-2. A window is divided into sections. The Navigation pane on the left side of the window shows the folder structure on your computer. When you click a folder in the Navigation pane, you see its contents in the File list on the right side. The Details pane at the bottom of the window provides information about selected files in the File list. A window actually opens in an accessory program called Windows Explorer, although the program name does not appear on the window. You can open this program from the Start menu, or just double-click a folder to open its window and view its contents.

• Understand file addresses A window also contains an Address bar, an area just below the title bar that shows the location, or address, of the files that appear in the File list. An address is a sequence of folder names separated by the symbol that describes a file’s location in the file hierarchy. An address shows the folder with the highest hierarchy level on the left and steps through each hierarchy level toward the right, sometimes called a path. For example, the My Documents folder might contain a subfolder named Notes. In this case, the Address bar would show My Documents Notes. Each location between the symbols represents a level in the file hierarchy. QUICK TIP Remember that you single-click a folder or subfolder in the Address bar to show its contents. But in the File list, you double-click a subfolder to open it.

• Navigate upward and downward using the Address bar and File list You can use the Address bar and the File list to move up or down in the hierarchy one or more levels at a time. To navigate upward in your computer’s hierarchy, you can click a folder or subfolder name in the Address bar. For example, in Figure B-2, you would move up in the hierarchy by clicking once on Users in the Address bar. Then the File list would show the subfolders and files inside the Users folder. To navigate downward in the hierarchy, double-click a subfolder in the File list. The path in the Address bar then shows the path to that subfolder.

• Navigate upward and downward using the Navigation pane You can also use the Navigation pane to navigate among folders. Move the mouse pointer over the Navigathe folder’s tion pane, then click the small triangles or to the left of a folder name to show or hide contents under the folder name. Subfolders appear indented under the folders that contain them, showing that they are inside that folder. Figure B-2 shows a folder named Users in the Navigation pane. The subfolders Katharine, Public, and Your User Name are inside the Users folder.

Plan your file organization As you manage your files, you should plan how you want to organize them. First, identify the types of files you work with, such as images, music, and reports. Think about the content, such as personal, business, clients, or projects. Then think of a folder organization that will help you find them later. For example, use subfolders in the My Pictures folder to separate family photos from business photos or to

group them by year. In the My Documents folder, you might group personal files in one subfolder and business files in another subfolder. Then create additional subfolders to further separate sets of files. You can always move files among folders and rename folders. You should periodically reevaluate your folder structure to make sure that it continues to meet your needs.

STEPS

Creating and Saving a File After you start a program and create a new file, the file exists only in your computer’s random access memory (RAM), which is a temporary storage location. RAM only contains information when your computer is on. When you turn off your computer, it automatically clears the contents of RAM. So you need to save a new file onto a storage device that permanently stores the file so that you can open, change, and use it later. One important storage device is your computer’s hard disk built into your computer. Another popular option is a USB flash drive, a small, portable storage device. Evelyn asks you to use the WordPad accessory program to create a short summary of an Oceania tour planning meeting and save it.

1. Start Windows if necessary, click the Start button Programs, click Accessories, then click WordPad

on the taskbar, point to All

The WordPad program opens. Near the top of the screen you see the Ribbon containing command buttons, similar to those you used in Paint in Unit A. The Home tab appears in front. A new, blank document appears in the document window. The blinking insertion point shows you where the next character you type will appear.

2. Type Meeting Notes, October 11, then press [Enter] WordPad inserts a new blank line and places the insertion point at the beginning of the next line. TROUBLE If you make a typing mistake, press [Backspace] to delete the character to the left of the insertion point.

TROUBLE If you don’t have a USB flash drive, save the document in the My Documents folder instead.

3. Type The 2013 tour will visit:, press [Enter], type Australia, press [Enter], type Micronesia, press [Enter], type New Zealand, press [Enter], then type your name; see Figure B-3 4. Click the WordPad button on the upper-left side of the window below the title bar, then click Save on the WordPad menu The first time you save a file using the Save button, the Save As dialog box opens. Use this dialog box to name the document file and choose a storage location for it. The Save As dialog box has many of the same elements as a Windows Explorer window, including an Address bar, a Navigation pane, and a File list. Below the Address bar, the toolbar contains command buttons you can click to perform actions. In the Address bar, you can see that WordPad chose the Documents library (which includes the My Documents folder) as the storage location.

5. Plug your USB flash drive into a USB port

on your computer, if necessary

On a laptop computer, the USB port is on the left or right side of your computer. On a desktop computer, the USB port is on the front panel (you may need to open a small door to see it), or on the back panel.

6. In the Navigation pane scroll bar, click the Down scroll arrow Computer and any storage devices listed under it

as needed to see

Under Computer, you see the storage locations available on your computer, such as Local Disk (C:) (your hard drive) and Removable Disk (H:) (your USB drive name and letter might differ). These storage locations act like folders because you can open them and store files in them. TROUBLE If your Save As dialog box or title bar does not show the .rtf file extension, open any Windows Explorer window, click Organize in the toolbar, click Folder and search options, click the View tab, then under Files and Folders, click to remove the check mark from Hide extensions for known file types.

Windows 28

7. Click the name for your USB flash drive The files and folders on your USB drive, if any, appear in the File list. The Address bar shows the location where the file will be saved, which is now Computer > Removable Disk (H:) (or the name of your drive). You need to give your document a meaningful name so you can find it later.

8. Click in the Filename text box to select the default name Document, type Oceania Meeting, compare your screen to Figure B-4, then click Save The document is saved as a file on your USB flash drive. The filename Oceania Meeting.rtf appears in the title bar at the top of the window. The “.rtf” at the end of the filename is the file extension. A file extension is a three- or four-letter sequence, preceded by a period, that identifies the file as a particular type of document, in this case Rich Text Format, to your computer. The WordPad program creates files using the RTF format. Windows adds the .rtf file extension automatically after you click Save.

9. Click the Close button

on the WordPad window

The WordPad program closes. Your meeting minutes are now saved on your USB flash drive.

Using Windows 7 libraries The Navigation pane contains not only files and folders, but also Libraries. A library gathers files and folders from different locations on your computer and displays them in one location. For example, you might have pictures in several different folders on your storage devices. You can add these folder locations to your Pictures library. Then when you want to see all your pictures, you open your Pictures library, instead of several different folders. The picture files stay in their original locations, but their names appear in the Pictures library. A library is not a folder that stores files, but rather a way of viewing similar types of documents that you have stored in multiple locations on your computer. Figure B-5 shows the four libraries that come with Windows 7: Documents, Music, Pictures, and Videos. To help you distinguish between library locations and actual folder locations, library names differ from actual folder names. For example, the My Documents folder is on your hard drive, but the library name is Documents. To add a location to a library, click the blue locations link (at the top of the File list) in the library you want to add to, click the Add button, navigate to the folder location you want to add,

then click Include folder. If you delete a file or folder from a library, you delete them from their source locations. If you delete a library, you do not delete the files in it. The Documents Library that comes with Windows already has the My Documents folder listed as a save location. So if you save a document to the Documents library, it is automatically saved to your My Documents folder. FIGURE B-5: Libraries

Exploring the Files and Folders on Your Computer In the last lesson, you navigated to your USB flash drive as you worked in the Save As dialog box. But even if you’re not saving a document, you will want to examine your computer and its existing folder and file structure. That way, you’ll know where to save files as you work with Windows application programs. In a Windows Explorer window, you can navigate through your computer contents using the File list, the Address bar, and the Navigation pane. As you prepare for the Oceania tours, you look at the files and folders on your computer.

1. Click the Start button

on the taskbar, then click Computer

Your computer’s storage devices appear in a window, as shown in Figure B-6, including hard drives; devices with removable storage, such as CD and DVD drives or USB flash drives; and portable devices such as personal digital assistants (PDAs). Table B-1 lists examples of different drive types. A colored bar shows you how much space has been taken up on your hard drive. You decide to move down a level in your computer’s hierarchy and see what is on your USB flash drive.

2. In the File list, double-click Removable Disk (H:) (or the drive name and letter for your USB flash drive) You see the contents of your USB flash drive, including the Oceania Meeting.rtf file you saved in the last lesson. You decide to navigate one level up in the file hierarchy.

3. In the Address bar, click Computer You return to the Computer window showing your storage devices. You decide to look at the contents of your hard drive.

4. In the Navigation pane, click Local Disk (C:) The contents of your hard drive appear in the File list. The Users folder contains a subfolder for each user who has a user account on this computer. Recall that you double-click items in the File list to open them. In the Address bar and in the Navigation pane, you only need to single-click.

5. In the File list, double-click the Users folder You see folders for each user registered on your computer. You might see a folder with your user account name on it. Each user’s folder contains that person’s documents. User folder names are the log-in names that were entered when your computer was set up. When a user logs in, the computer allows that user access to the folder with the same user name. If you are using a computer with more than one user, you might not have permission to view other users’ folders. There is also a Public folder that any user can open. QUICK TIP Click the Back button, to the left of the Address bar, to return to the window you last viewed. In the Address bar, click to the right of a folder name to see a list of the subfolders. If the folder is open, its name appears in bold.

Windows 30

6. Double-click the folder with your user name on it Depending on how your computer is set up, this folder might be labeled with your name; however, if you are using a computer in a lab or a public location, your folder might be called Student or Computer User or something similar. You see a list of folders, such as My Documents, My Music, and others. See Figure B-7.

7. Double-click My Documents You see the folders and documents you can open and work with. In the Address bar, the path to the My Documents folder is Computer Local Disk (C:) Users Your User Name My Documents. You decide to return to the Computer window.

8. In the Navigation pane, click Computer You moved up three levels in your hierarchy. You can also move one level up at a time in your file hierarchy by pressing the [Backspace] key on your keyboard. You once again see your computer’s storage devices.

STEPS

Changing File and Folder Views As you view your folders and files, you might want to see as many items as possible in a window. At other times, you might want to see details about each item. Windows 7 lets you choose from eight different views, which are appearance choices for your folder contents. Each view provides different information about the files and folders in different ways. You can list your folders and files by using several different-sized icons or in lists. You can also sort them to change the order in which the folders and files are listed. If you want to see what a file looks like, but don’t want to open the file, you can see a preview of it in the window. As you plan the Oceania tour, you review picture files in various views.

1. In the Navigation pane, under Libraries, click Pictures, then in the File list, double-click the Sample Pictures folder You opened the Sample Pictures folder, which is inside your Pictures library.

2. In the toolbar, click the More options list arrow next to the Change your view icon The list of available views appears in a shortcut menu. See Figure B-9. QUICK TIP You can also click the Change your view button (not its list arrow) repeatedly to cycle through five of the eight views.

3. Click Large Icons In this view, the pictures appear as large-sized icons in the File list, as shown in Figure B-10. For image files, this view is very helpful. You can click any view name or you can drag a slider control to move through each of the available views.

4. Click the Change your view More options list arrow then drag it so it’s next to Details

again, point to the slider

,

As you drag, Live Preview shows you how each view looks in your folder. In Details view, you can see filenames, the date that files were created or modified, and other information. In Details view, you can also control the order in which the folders and files appear. In the Name column heading, you see a small triangle . This indicates that the sample pictures are in alphabetical order (A, B, C,…). QUICK TIP Click a column heading a second time to reverse the order.

QUICK TIP The Navigation pane also contains Favorites, which are links to folders you use frequently. To add a folder to your Favorites list, open the folder in the File list. Right-click the Favorites link in the Navigation pane, then left-click Add current location to Favorites.

Windows 32

5. Click the Name column heading The items now appear in descending (Z, Y, X,…) order. The icon in the column header changes to .

6. Click the Show the preview pane button

in the toolbar

The Preview pane opens on the right side of the screen. The Preview pane is an area on the right side of a window that shows you what a selected file looks like without opening it. It is especially useful for document files so you can see the first few paragraphs of a large document.

7. Click the name of your USB flash drive in the Navigation pane, then click the Oceania Meeting.rtf filename in the File list A preview of the Oceania Meeting file you created earlier in this unit appears in the Preview pane.

STEPS

Opening, Editing, and Saving Files Once you have created a file and saved it with a name in a folder on a storage device, you can easily open it and edit (make changes to) it. For example, you might want to add or delete text to a document, or change the color in a drawing. Then you save the file again so that it contains your latest changes. Usually you save a file with the same filename and in the same location as the original, which replaces the existing file with the latest, updated version. When you save a file you have changed, you use the Save command. Evelyn asks you to complete the meeting notes.

1. Click the Start button on the taskbar, point to All Programs, click the Accessories folder, then click WordPad If you use WordPad frequently, it’s name might appear on the left side of the Start menu. If it does, you can click it there to open it.

2. Click the WordPad button TROUBLE If you are not using a USB flash drive, click an appropriate storage location in the Navigation pane.

QUICK TIP You can also doubleclick the filename in the File list to open the file.

, then click Open

The Open dialog box opens. It has the same sections as the Save As dialog box and the Windows Explorer windows you used earlier in this unit. You decide to navigate to the location where you saved your Oceania Meeting.rtf file so you can open it.

3. Scroll down in the Navigation pane if necessary until you see Computer, then click Removable Disk (H:) (or the drive name and letter for your USB flash drive) The contents of your USB flash drive appear in the File list, as shown in Figure B-12.

4. Click Oceania Meeting.rtf in the File list, then click Open The document you created earlier opens.

5. Click to the right of the “d” in New Zealand, press [Enter], then type Evelyn Swazey closed the meeting. The edited document includes the text you just typed. See Figure B-13.

QUICK TIP Instead of using the WordPad menu and Save command to save a document, you can also click the Save button. in the Quick Access toolbar at the top of the WordPad window.

6. Click the WordPad button

, then click Save, as shown in Figure B-14

WordPad saves the document with your most recent changes, using the filename and location you specified when you saved it for the first time. When you save an existing file, the Save As dialog box does not open.

7. Click

, then click Exit

Comparing Save and Save As The WordPad menu has two save command options—Save and Save As. When you first save a file, the Save As dialog box opens (whether you choose Save or Save As). Here you can select the drive and folder where you want to save the file and enter its filename. If you edit a previously saved file, you can save the file to the same location with the same filename using the Save command. The Save command

Windows 34

updates the stored file using the same location and filename without opening the Save As dialog box. In some situations, you might want to save another copy of the existing document using a different filename or in a different storage location. To do this, open the document, use the Save As command, and then navigate to a different location, and/or edit the name of the file.

STEPS

Copying Files As you have learned, saving a file in a location on your hard drive stores it so you can open it later. But sometimes you will want to make a copy of a file. For example, you might want to put a copy on a USB flash drive so you can open the file on another machine or share a file with a friend or colleague. Or you might want to create a copy as a backup, or replacement, in case something happens to your original file. You copy files and folders using the Copy command and then place the copy in another location using the Paste command. You cannot have two copies of a file with the same name in the same folder. If you attempt to do this, Windows 7 will ask you if you want to replace the first one then gives you a chance to give the second copy a different name. Evelyn asks you to create a backup copy of the meeting notes document you created and paste it in a new folder you create on your USB flash drive.

1. Click the Start button on the taskbar, then click Computer 2. In the File list, double-click Removable Disk (H:) (or the drive name and letter for your USB flash drive) First you create the new folder Evelyn needs.

3. In the toolbar, click the New folder button A new folder appears in the File list, with its name, New folder, selected. Because the folder name is selected, any text you type replaces the selected text as the folder name.

4. Type Meeting Notes, then press [Enter] You named the new folder Meeting Notes. Next, you copy your original Oceania Meeting.rtf file. QUICK TIP You can also copy a file by right-clicking the file in the File list and then clicking Copy. To use the keyboard, press and hold [Ctrl] and press [C], then release both keys.

QUICK TIP To paste using the keyboard, press and hold [Ctrl] and press [V], then release both keys.

Windows 36

5. In the File list, click the Oceania Meeting.rtf document you saved earlier, click the Organize button on the toolbar, then click Copy, as shown in Figure B-15 When you use the Copy command, Windows 7 places a duplicate copy of the file in an area of your computer’s random access memory called the clipboard, ready to paste, or place, in a new location. Copying and pasting a file leaves the file in its original location. The copied file remains on the clipboard until you copy something else or end your Windows 7 session.

6. In the File list, double-click the Meeting Notes folder The folder opens.

7. Click the Organize button on the toolbar, then click Paste A copy of your Oceania Meeting.rtf file is pasted into your new Meeting Notes folder. See Figure B-16. You now have two copies of the Oceania Meeting.rtf file: one on your USB flash drive in the main folder, and a copy of the file in a folder called Meeting Notes on your USB flash drive. The file remains on the clipboard so you can paste it again to other locations if you like.

STEPS QUICK TIP You can also cut a file by right-clicking the file in the File list and then clicking Cut. To use the keyboard, press and hold [Ctrl] and press [X], then release both keys.

QUICK TIP You can also paste a file by right-clicking an empty area in the File list and then clicking Paste. To use the keyboard, press and hold [Ctrl] and press [V], then release both keys.

Moving and Renaming Files As you work with files, you might need to move files or folders to another location. You can move one or more files or folders. You might move them to a different folder on the same drive or a different drive. When you move a file, the file is transferred to the new location and no longer exists in its original location. You can move a file using the Cut and Paste commands. After you create a file, you might find that the original name you gave the file isn’t clear anymore, so you can rename it to make it more descriptive or accurate. You decide to move your original Oceania Meeting.rtf document to your Documents library. After you move it, you decide to edit the filename so it better describes the file contents.

1. In the Address bar, click Removable Disk (H:) (or the drive name and letter for your USB flash drive) 2. Click the Oceania Meeting.rtf document to select it 3. Click the Organize button on the toolbar, then click Cut The icon representing the cut file becomes lighter in color, indicating you have cut it, as shown in Figure B-17. You navigate to your Documents library, in preparation for pasting the cut document there.

4. In the Navigation Pane, under Libraries, click Documents 5. Click the Organize button on the toolbar, then click Paste The Oceania Meeting.rtf document appears in your Documents library. See Figure B-18. The filename could be clearer, to help you remember that it contains notes from your meeting.

6. With the Oceania Meeting.rtf file selected, click the Organize button on the toolbar, then click Rename The filename is highlighted. In a window, the file extension cannot change because it identifies the file to WordPad. If you delete the file extension, the file cannot be opened. You could type a new name to replace the old one, but you decide to add the word “Notes” to the end of the filename instead.

7. Click the after the “g” in “Meeting”, press [Spacebar], then type Notes, as shown in Figure B-19, then press [Enter] You changed the name of the document copy in the Documents library. The filename now reads Oceania Meeting Notes.rtf.

Using drag and drop to copy or move files to new locations You can also use the mouse to copy a file and place the copy in a new location. Drag and drop is a technique in which you use your pointing device to drag a file or folder into a different folder and then drop it, or let go of the mouse button, to place it in that folder. Using drag and drop does not copy your file to the clipboard. If you drag and drop a file to a folder on another drive, Windows copies the file. See Figure B-20. However, if you drag and drop a file to a folder on the same drive, Windows 7 moves the file into that folder instead. If you want to move a file to another drive, hold down [Shift] while you drag and drop. If you want to copy a file to another folder on the same drive, hold down [Ctrl] while you drag and drop.

STEPS

Searching for Files, Folders, and Programs After copying or moving folders and files, you might forget where you stored a particular folder or file, its name, or both. Or you might need help finding a program on your computer. Windows Search helps you quickly find any file, folder, or program. You must type one or more letter sequences or words that help Windows 7 identify the item you want. The search text you type is called your search criteria. Your search criteria can be a filename, part of a filename, or any other characters you choose. Windows 7 will find files with that information in its name or with that information inside the file. For example, if you type “word,” Windows 7 will find the program Microsoft Word, any documents with “word” in its title, or any document with “word” inside the file. To search your entire computer, including its attached drives, you can use the Search box on the Start menu. To search within a particular folder, you can use the Search box in a Windows Explorer window. You want to locate the copy of the Oceania Meeting Notes.rtf document so you can print it for a colleague.

1. Click the Start button

on the taskbar

The Search programs and files box at the bottom of the Start menu already contains the insertion point, ready for you to type search criteria. You begin your search by typing a part of a word that is in the filename.

2. Type me

QUICK TIP Search text is not case sensitive. Typing lowercase “mee”, you will still find items that start with “Mee” or “mee”.

TROUBLE Your file might open in another program on your computer that reads RTF files. You can continue with the lesson.

TROUBLE If you do not have a USB flash drive, click another storage location in the Navigation pane.

Even before you finish typing the word “meeting”, the Start menu lists all programs, files, and Control Panel items that have the letters “me” in their title or somewhere inside the file or the file properties. See Figure B-21. Your search results will differ, depending on the programs and files on your computer. File properties are details that Windows stores about a file. Windows arranges the search results into categories.

3. Type e The search results narrow to only the files that contain “mee”. The search results become more specific every time you add more text to your criteria finding the two versions of your meeting notes file. See Figure B-22.

4. Point to the Oceania Meeting.rtf filename under Files The ScreenTip shows the file location. This Oceania Meeting.rtf file is on the USB flash drive. The filenames are links to the document. You only need to single-click a file to open it.

5. Under Documents, click Oceania Meeting Notes.rtf The file opens in WordPad.

6. Click the Close button

in the program window’s title bar

You can search in a folder or on a drive using the search box in any Windows Explorer window.

7. Click , click Computer, in the Navigation pane click Removable Disk (H:) (or the drive name and letter for your USB flash drive) 8. Click the Search Removable Disk (H:) text box, to the right of the Address bar 9. Type mee to list all files and folders on your USB flash drive that contain “mee” The search criterion, mee, is highlighted in the filenames. The results include the folder called Meeting Notes and the file named Oceania Meeting.rtf. Because you navigated to your USB flash drive, Windows only lists the document version that is on that drive. See Figure B-23.

10. Double-click Oceania Meeting.rtf in the File list to open the document file in WordPad, view the file, close WordPad, then close the Windows Explorer window

Performing more advanced searches To locate all files that have the same file extension (such as .rtf), type the file extension as your search criterion. If you want to locate files created by a certain person, use the first name, last name, or first and last name as your search criteria. If you want to locate files created on a certain date, type the date (for example, 7/9/2012) as

your search criterion. If you remember the title in a document, type the title as your search criterion. If you have created e-mail contacts in your Contacts folder, you can type the person’s name to find his or her e-mail address.

STEPS

Deleting and Restoring Files If you no longer need a folder or file, you can delete (or remove) it from the storage device. By regularly deleting files and folders you no longer need and emptying the Recycle Bin, you free up valuable storage space on your computer. This also keeps your computer uncluttered. Windows 7 places folders and files you delete from your hard drive in the Recycle Bin. If you delete a folder, Windows 7 removes the folder as well as all files and subfolders stored in it. If you later discover that you need a deleted file or folder, you can restore it to its original location, but only if you have not yet emptied the Recycle Bin. Emptying the Recycle Bin permanently removes the deleted folders and files from your computer. However, files and folders you delete from a removable drive, such as a USB flash drive, do not go to the Recycle Bin. They are immediately and permanently deleted and cannot be restored. You delete the meeting notes copy saved in the Documents library and then restore it.

1. Click the Start button

on the taskbar, then click Documents

Your Documents library opens.

2. Click Oceania Meeting Notes.rtf to select it, click the Organize button on the toolbar, then click Delete The Delete File dialog box opens so you can confirm the deletion, as shown in Figure B-24.

3. Click Yes You deleted the file from the Documents library. Windows moved it into the Recycle Bin. QUICK TIP If the Recycle Bin icon does not contain crumpled paper, then it is empty.

4. Click the Minimize button Bin icon

on the window’s title bar and examine the Recycle

The Recycle Bin icon appears to contain crumpled paper. This tells you that the Recycle Bin contains deleted folders and files.

5. Double-click the Recycle Bin icon on the desktop The Recycle Bin window opens and displays any previously deleted folders and files, including the Oceania Meeting Notes.rtf file. QUICK TIP To delete a file completely in one action, click the file to select it, press and hold [Shift], then press [Delete]. A message will ask if you want to permanently delete the file. If you click Yes, Windows deletes the file without sending it to the Recycle Bin. Use caution, however, because you cannot restore the file.

Windows 42

6. Click the Oceania Meeting Notes.rtf file to select it, then click the Restore this item button on the Recycle Bin toolbar, as shown in Figure B-25 The file returns to its original location and no longer appears in the Recycle Bin window.

7. In the Navigation pane, click the Documents library The Documents library window contains the restored file. You decide to permanently delete this file.

8. Click the Oceania Meeting Notes.rtf file, press the [Delete] key on your keyboard, then click Yes in the Delete File dialog box The Oceania Meeting Notes.rtf file moves from the Documents library to the Recycle Bin. You decide to permanently delete all documents in the Recycle Bin. NOTE: If you are using a computer that belongs to someone else, or that is in a computer lab, make sure you have permission to empty the Recycle Bin before proceeding with the next step.

9. Minimize the window, double-click the Recycle Bin, click the Empty the Recycle Bin button on the toolbar, click Yes in the dialog box, then close all open windows

DETAILS STEPS

Understanding the Of fice 2010 Suite Microsoft Office 2010 features an intuitive, context-sensitive user interface, so you can get up to speed faster and use advanced features with greater ease. The programs in Office are bundled together in a group called a suite (although you can also purchase them separately). The Office suite is available in several configurations, but all include Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Other configurations include Access, Outlook, Publisher, and other programs. Each program in Office is best suited for completing specific types of tasks, though there is some overlap in capabilities.

The Office programs covered in this book include: • Microsoft Word 2010 When you need to create any kind of text-based document, such as a memo, newsletter, or multipage report, Word is the program to use. You can easily make your documents look great by inserting eye-catching graphics and using formatting tools such as themes, which are available in most Office programs. Themes are predesigned combinations of color and formatting attributes you can apply to a document. The Word document shown in Figure A-1 was formatted with the Solstice theme.

• Microsoft Excel 2010 Excel is the perfect solution when you need to work with numeric values and make calculations. It puts the power of formulas, functions, charts, and other analytical tools into the hands of every user, so you can analyze sales projections, calculate loan payments, and present your findings in style. The Excel worksheet shown in Figure A-1 tracks personal expenses. Because Excel automatically recalculates results whenever a value changes, the information is always up to date. A chart illustrates how the monthly expenses are broken down.

• Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 Using PowerPoint, it’s easy to create powerful presentations complete with graphics, transitions, and even a soundtrack. Using professionally designed themes and clip art, you can quickly and easily create dynamic slide shows such as the one shown in Figure A-1.

• Microsoft Access 2010 Access helps you keep track of large amounts of quantitative data, such as product inventories or employee records. The form shown in Figure A-1 was created for a grocery store inventory database. Employees use the form to enter data about each item. Using Access enables employees to quickly find specific information such as price and quantity without hunting through store shelves and stockrooms.

Microsoft Office has benefits beyond the power of each program, including: • Common user interface: Improving business processes Because the Office suite programs have a similar interface, or look and feel, your experience using one program’s tools makes it easy to learn those in the other programs. In addition, Office documents are compatible with one another, meaning that you can easily incorporate, or integrate, an Excel chart into a PowerPoint slide, or an Access table into a Word document.

• Collaboration: Simplifying how people work together Office recognizes the way people do business today, and supports the emphasis on communication and knowledge sharing within companies and across the globe. All Office programs include the capability to incorporate feedback—called online collaboration—across the Internet or a company network.

Deciding which program to use Every Office program includes tools that go far beyond what you might expect. For example, although Excel is primarily designed for making calculations, you can use it to create a database. So when you’re planning a project, how do you decide which Office program to use? The general rule of thumb is to use the program best suited for your intended task, and make use of supporting tools in the program if you need them. Word is best for creating text-based documents, Excel is best for making mathematical calculations,

PowerPoint is best for preparing presentations, and Access is best for managing quantitative data. Although the capabilities of Office are so vast that you could create an inventory in Excel or a budget in Word, you’ll find greater flexibility and efficiency by using the program designed for the task. And remember, you can always create a file in one program, and then insert it in a document in another program when you need to, such as including sales projections (Excel) in a memo (Word).

STEPS QUICK TIP You can also launch a program by double-clicking a desktop icon or clicking the program name on the Start menu.

QUICK TIP It is not necessary to close one program before opening another.

QUICK TIP As you work in Windows, your computer adapts to your activities. You may notice that after clicking the Start button, the name of the program you want to open appears in the Start menu above All Programs; if so, you can click it to start the program.

TROUBLE If you don’t have Access installed on your computer, proceed to the next lesson.

Star ting and Exiting an Of fice Program The first step in using an Office program is to open, or launch, it on your computer. The easiest ways to launch a program are to click the Start button on the Windows taskbar or to double-click an icon on your desktop. You can have multiple programs open on your computer simultaneously, and you can move between open programs by clicking the desired program or document button on the taskbar or by using the [Alt][Tab] keyboard shortcut combination. When working, you’ll often want to open multiple programs in Office and switch among them as you work. Begin by launching a few Office programs now.

1. Click the Start button

on the taskbar

The Start menu opens. If the taskbar is hidden, you can display it by pointing to the bottom of the screen. Depending on your taskbar property settings, the taskbar may be displayed at all times, or only when you point to that area of the screen. For more information, or to change your taskbar properties, consult your instructor or technical support person.

2. Click All Programs, scroll down if necessary in the All Programs menu, click Microsoft Office as shown in Figure A-2, then click Microsoft Word 2010 Word 2010 starts, and the program window opens on your screen.

3. Click on the taskbar, click All Programs, click Microsoft Office, then click Microsoft Excel 2010 Excel 2010 starts, and the program window opens, as shown in Figure A-3. Word is no longer visible, but it remains open. The taskbar displays a button for each open program and document. Because this Excel document is active, or in front and available, the Excel button on the taskbar appears slightly lighter.

4. Point to the Word program button

on the taskbar, then click

The Word program window is now in front. When the Aero feature is turned on in Windows 7, pointing to a program button on the taskbar displays a thumbnail version of each open window in that program above the program button. Clicking a program button on the taskbar activates that program and the most recently active document. Clicking a thumbnail of a document activates that document.

5. Click on the taskbar, click All Programs, click Microsoft Office, then click Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 PowerPoint 2010 starts and becomes the active program.

6. Click the Excel program button

on the taskbar

Excel is now the active program.

7. Click on the taskbar, click All Programs, click Microsoft Office, then click Microsoft Access 2010 Access 2010 starts and becomes the active program. Now all four Office programs are open at the same time.

8. Click Exit on the navigation bar in the Access program window, as shown in Figure A-4 Access closes, leaving Excel active and Word and PowerPoint open.

Using shortcut keys to move between Office programs As an alternative to the Windows taskbar, you can use a keyboard shortcut to move among open Office programs. The [Alt][Tab] keyboard combination lets you either switch quickly to the next open program or file or choose one from a gallery. To switch immediately to the next open program or file, press [Alt][Tab]. To choose from all open programs and files, press and hold [Alt], then press and release

Office 4

[Tab] without releasing [Alt]. A gallery opens on screen, displaying the filename and a thumbnail image of each open program and file, as well as of the desktop. Each time you press [Tab] while holding [Alt], the selection cycles to the next open file or location. Release [Alt] when the program, file, or location you want to activate is selected.

Windows Live and Microsoft Office Web Apps All Office programs include the capability to incorporate feedback— called online collaboration—across the Internet or a company network. Using cloud computing (work done in a virtual environment), you can take advantage of Web programs called Microsoft Office Web Apps, which are simplified versions of the programs found in the Microsoft Office 2010 suite. Because these programs are online, they take up no computer disk space and are accessed using

Windows Live SkyDrive, a free service from Microsoft. Using Windows Live SkyDrive, you and your colleagues can create and store documents in a “cloud” and make the documents available to whomever you grant access. To use Windows Live SkyDrive, you need a free Windows Live ID, which you obtain at the Windows Live Web site. You can find more information in the “Working with Windows Live and Office Web Apps” appendix.

STEPS QUICK TIP In addition to the standard tabs on the Ribbon, contextual tabs open when needed to complete a specific task; they appear in an accent color and close when no longer needed. To minimize the display of the buttons and commands on tabs, click the Minimize the Ribbon button on the right end of the Ribbon.

Viewing the Of fice 2010 User Inter face One of the benefits of using Office is that the programs have much in common, making them easy to learn and making it simple to move from one to another. Individual Office programs have always shared many features, but the innovations in the Office 2010 user interface mean even greater similarity among them all. That means you can also use your knowledge of one program to get up to speed in another. A user interface is a collective term for all the ways you interact with a software program. The user interface in Office 2010 provides intuitive ways to choose commands, work with files, and navigate in the program window. Familiarize yourself with some of the common interface elements in Office by examining the PowerPoint program window.

1. Click the PowerPoint program button

on the taskbar

PowerPoint becomes the active program. Refer to Figure A-5 to identify common elements of the Office user interface. The document window occupies most of the screen. In PowerPoint, a blank slide appears in the document window, so you can build your slide show. At the top of every Office program window is a title bar that displays the document name and program name. Below the title bar is the Ribbon, which displays commands you’re likely to need for the current task. Commands are organized onto tabs. The tab names appear at the top of the Ribbon, and the active tab appears in front. The Ribbon in every Office program includes tabs specific to the program, but all Office programs include a File tab and Home tab on the left end of the Ribbon.

2. Click the File tab The File tab opens, displaying Backstage view. The navigation bar on the left side of Backstage view contains commands to perform actions common to most Office programs, such as opening a file, saving a file, and closing the current program. Just above the File tab is the Quick Access toolbar, which also includes buttons for common Office commands.

3. Click the File tab again to close Backstage view and return to the document window, then click the Design tab on the Ribbon QUICK TIP Live Preview is available in many galleries and menus throughout Office.

QUICK TIP If you accidentally click a theme, click the Undo button on the Quick Access toolbar.

QUICK TIP You can also use the Zoom button in the Zoom group on the View tab to enlarge or reduce a document’s appearance.

To display a different tab, you click the tab on the Ribbon. Each tab contains related commands arranged into groups to make features easy to find. On the Design tab, the Themes group displays available design themes in a gallery, or visual collection of choices you can browse. Many groups contain a dialog box launcher, an icon you can click to open a dialog box or task pane from which to choose related commands.

4. Move the mouse pointer over the Angles theme in the Themes group as shown in Figure A-6, but do not click the mouse button The Angles theme is temporarily applied to the slide in the document window. However, because you did not click the theme, you did not permanently change the slide. With the Live Preview feature, you can point to a choice, see the results right in the document, and then decide if you want to make the change.

5. Move

If you had clicked the Angles theme, it would be applied to this slide. Instead, the slide remains unchanged.

6. Point to the Zoom slider level reads 166%

on the status bar, then drag

to the right until the Zoom

The slide display is enlarged. Zoom tools are located on the status bar. You can drag the slider or click the Zoom In or Zoom Out buttons to zoom in or out on an area of interest. Zooming in, or choosing a higher percentage, makes a document appear bigger on screen, but less of it fits on the screen at once; zooming out, or choosing a lower percentage, lets you see more of the document but at a reduced size.

7. Drag Office 6

away from the Ribbon and towards the slide

on the status bar to the left until the Zoom level reads 73%

STEPS

Creating and Saving a File When working in a program, one of the first things you need to do is to create and save a file. A file is a stored collection of data. Saving a file enables you to work on a project now, then put it away and work on it again later. In some Office programs, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, a new file is automatically created when you start the program, so all you have to do is enter some data and save it. In Access, you must expressly create a file before you enter any data. You should give your files meaningful names and save them in an appropriate location so that they’re easy to find. Use Word to familiarize yourself with the process of creating and saving a document. First you’ll type some notes about a possible location for a corporate meeting, then you’ll save the information for later use.

1. Click the Word program button on the taskbar 2. Type Locations for Corporate Meeting, then press [Enter] twice The text appears in the document window, and the insertion point blinks on a new blank line. The insertion point indicates where the next typed text will appear.

3. Type Las Vegas, NV, press [Enter], type Orlando, FL, press [Enter], type Boston, MA, press [Enter] twice, then type your name Compare your document to Figure A-7. QUICK TIP A filename can be up to 255 characters, including a file extension, and can include upper- or lowercase characters and spaces, but not ?, “, /, \, , *, |, or :.

QUICK TIP Saving a file to the Desktop creates a desktop icon that you can double-click to both launch a program and open a document.

QUICK TIP To create a new blank file when a file is open, click the File tab, click New on the navigation bar, then click Create near the bottom of the document preview pane.

Office 8

4. Click the Save button

on the Quick Access toolbar

Because this is the first time you are saving this document, the Save As dialog box opens, as shown in Figure A-8. The Save As dialog box includes options for assigning a filename and storage location. Once you save a file for the first time, clicking saves any changes to the file without opening the Save As dialog box, because no additional information is needed. The Address bar in the Save As dialog box displays the default location for saving the file, but you can change it to any location. The File name field contains a suggested name for the document based on text in the file, but you can enter a different name.

5. Type OF A-Potential Corporate Meeting Locations The text you type replaces the highlighted text. (The “OF A-” in the filename indicates that the file is created in Office Unit A. You will see similar designations throughout this book when files are named. For example, a file named in Excel Unit B would begin with “EX B-” .)

6. In the Save As dialog box, use the Address bar or Navigation Pane to navigate to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files Many students store files on a flash drive, but you can also store files on your computer, a network drive, or any storage device indicated by your instructor or technical support person.

7. Click Save The Save As dialog box closes, the new file is saved to the location you specified, then the name of the document appears in the title bar, as shown in Figure A-9. (You may or may not see the file extension “.docx” after the filename.) See Table A-1 for a description of the different types of files you create in Office, and the file extensions associated with each.

STEPS QUICK TIP Click Recent on the navigation bar to display a list of recent workbooks; click a file in the list to open it.

Opening a File and Saving It with a New Name In many cases as you work in Office, you start with a blank document, but often you need to use an existing file. It might be a file you or a coworker created earlier as a work in progress, or it could be a complete document that you want to use as the basis for another. For example, you might want to create a budget for this year using the budget you created last year; you could type in all the categories and information from scratch, or you could open last year’s budget, save it with a new name, and just make changes to update it for the current year. By opening the existing file and saving it with the Save As command, you create a duplicate that you can modify to your heart’s content, while the original file remains intact. Use Excel to open an existing workbook file, and save it with a new name so the original remains unchanged.

1. Click the Excel program button the navigation bar

on the taskbar, click the File tab, then click Open on

The Open dialog box opens, where you can navigate to any drive or folder accessible to your computer to locate a file.

2. In the Open dialog box, navigate to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files The files available in the current folder are listed, as shown in Figure A-10. This folder contains one file.

TROUBLE Click Enable Editing on the Protected View bar near the top of your document window if prompted.

QUICK TIP The Save As command works identically in all Office programs, except Access; in Access, this command lets you save a copy of the current database object, such as a table or form, with a new name, but not a copy of the entire database.

3. Click OFFICE A-1.xlsx, then click Open The dialog box closes, and the file opens in Excel. An Excel file is an electronic spreadsheet, so it looks different from a Word document or a PowerPoint slide.

4. Click the File tab, then click Save As on the navigation bar The Save As dialog box opens, and the current filename is highlighted in the File name text box. Using the Save As command enables you to create a copy of the current, existing file with a new name. This action preserves the original file and creates a new file that you can modify.

5. Navigate to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files if necessary, type OF A-Budget for Corporate Meeting in the File name text box, as shown in Figure A-11, then click Save A copy of the existing workbook is created with the new name. The original file, Office A-1.xlsx, closes automatically.

6. Click cell A19, type your name, then press [Enter], as shown in Figure A-12 In Excel, you enter data in cells, which are formed by the intersection of a row and a column. Cell A19 is at the intersection of column A and row 19. When you press [Enter], the cell pointer moves to cell A20.

7. Click the Save button

on the Quick Access toolbar

Your name appears in the workbook, and your changes to the file are saved.

Working in Compatibility Mode Not everyone upgrades to the newest version of Office. As a general rule, new software versions are backward compatible, meaning that documents saved by an older version can be read by newer software. To open documents created in older Office versions, Office 2010 includes a feature called Compatibility Mode. When you use Office 2010 to open a file created in an earlier version of Office, “Compatibility Mode” appears in the title bar, letting you know the file was created in an earlier but usable version of the program. If

Office 10

you are working with someone who may not be using the newest version of the software, you can avoid possible incompatibility problems by saving your file in another, earlier format. To do this in an Office program, click the File tab, click Save As on the navigation bar, click the Save as type list arrow in the Save As dialog box, then click an option on the list. For example, if you’re working in Excel, click Excel 97-2003 Workbook format in the Save as type list to save an Excel file so that it can be opened in Excel 97 or Excel 2003.

Exploring File Open options You might have noticed that the Open button on the Open dialog box includes an arrow. In a dialog box, if a button includes an arrow you can click the button to invoke the command, or you can click the arrow to choose from a list of related commands. The Open list arrow includes several related commands, including Open Read-Only and Open as Copy. Clicking Open Read-Only opens a file that you

can only save with a new name; you cannot save changes to the original file. Clicking Open as Copy creates a copy of the file already saved and named with the word “Copy” in the title. Like the Save As command, these commands provide additional ways to use copies of existing files while ensuring that original files do not get changed by mistake.

STEPS

Viewing and Printing Your Work Each Microsoft Office program lets you switch among various views of the document window to show more or fewer details or a different combination of elements that make it easier to complete certain tasks, such as formatting or reading text. Changing your view of a document does not affect the file in any way, it affects only the way it looks on screen. If your computer is connected to a printer or a print server, you can easily print any Office document using the Print button on the Print tab in Backstage view. Printing can be as simple as previewing the document to see exactly what a document will look like when it is printed and then clicking the Print button. Or, you can customize the print job by printing only selected pages or making other choices. Experiment with changing your view of a Word document, and then preview and print your work.

1. Click the Word program button

on the taskbar

Word becomes the active program, and the document fills the screen.

2. Click the View tab on the Ribbon In most Office programs, the View tab on the Ribbon includes groups and commands for changing your view of the current document. You can also change views using the View buttons on the status bar.

3. Click the Web Layout button in the Document Views group on the View tab The view changes to Web Layout view, as shown in Figure A-13. This view shows how the document will look if you save it as a Web page.

4. Click the Print Layout button on the View tab You return to Print Layout view, the default view in Word.

5. Click the File tab, then click Print on the navigation bar QUICK TIP You can add the Quick Print button to the Quick Access toolbar by clicking the Customize Quick Access Toolbar button, then clicking Quick Print. The Quick Print button prints one copy of your document using the default settings.

The Print tab opens in Backstage view. The preview pane on the right side of the window automatically displays a preview of how your document will look when printed, showing the entire page on screen at once. Compare your screen to Figure A-14. Options in the Settings section enable you to change settings such as margins, orientation, and paper size before printing. To change a setting, click it, and then click the new setting you want. For instance, to change from Letter paper size to Legal, click Letter in the Settings section, then click Legal on the menu that opens. The document preview is updated as you change the settings. You also can use the Settings section to change which pages to print and even the number of pages you print on each sheet of printed paper. If you have multiple printers from which to choose, you can change from one installed printer to another by clicking the current printer in the Printer section, then clicking the name of the installed printer you want to use. The Print section contains the Print button and also enables you to select the number of copies of the document to print.

6. Click the Print button in the Print section A copy of the document prints, and Backstage view closes.

Customizing the Quick Access toolbar You can customize the Quick Access toolbar to display your favorite commands. To do so, click the Customize Quick Access Toolbar button in the title bar, then click the command you want to add. If you don’t see the command in the list, click More Commands to open the Quick Access Toolbar tab of the current program’s Options dialog box. In the Options dialog box, use the Choose commands from list to choose a category, click the desired command in the list on the left, click Add to add it to the Quick Access toolbar, then click

Office 12

OK. To remove a button from the toolbar, click the name in the list on the right in the Options dialog box, then click Remove. To add a command to the Quick Access toolbar on the fly, simply right-click the button on the Ribbon, then click Add to Quick Access Toolbar on the shortcut menu. To move the Quick Access toolbar below the Ribbon, click the Customize Quick Access Toolbar button, and then click Show Below the Ribbon.

Creating a screen capture A screen capture is a digital image of your screen, as if you took a picture of it with a camera. For instance, you might want to take a screen capture if an error message occurs and you want Technical Support to see exactly what’s on the screen. You can create a screen capture using features found in Windows 7 or Office 2010. Windows 7 comes with the Snipping Tool, a separate program designed to capture whole screens or portions of screens. To open the Snipping Tool, click it on the Start menu or click All Programs, click Accessories, then click Snipping Tool. After opening the Snipping Tool, drag the pointer on the screen to select the area of the screen you want to capture. When you release the mouse button, the screen capture opens in the Snipping Tool window, and

you can save, copy, or send it in an e-mail. In Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2010, you can capture screens or portions of screens and insert them in the current document using the Screenshot button on the Insert tab. And finally, you can create a screen capture by pressing [PrtScn]. (Keyboards differ, but you may find the [PrtScn] button in or near your keyboard’s function keys.) Pressing this key places a digital image of your screen in the Windows temporary storage area known as the Clipboard. Open the document where you want the screen capture to appear, click the Home tab on the Ribbon (if necessary), then click the Paste button on the Home tab. The screen capture is pasted into the document.

Recovering a document Each Office program has a built-in recovery feature that allows you to open and save files that were open at the time of an interruption such as a power failure. When you restart the program(s) after an interruption, the Document Recovery task pane opens on the left side of your screen displaying both original and recovered versions of the files that were open. If you’re not sure which file to open

(original or recovered), it’s usually better to open the recovered file because it will contain the latest information. You can, however, open and review all versions of the file that were recovered and save the best one. Each file listed in the Document Recovery task pane displays a list arrow with options that allow you to open the file, save it as is, delete it, or show repairs made to it during recovery.

DETAILS

Under s tanding Word Processing Sof t ware A word processing program is a software program that includes tools for entering, editing, and formatting text and graphics. Microsoft Word is a powerful word processing program that allows you to create and enhance a wide range of documents quickly and easily. Figure A-1 shows the first page of a report created using Word and illustrates some of the Word features you can use to enhance your documents. The electronic files you create using Word are called documents. One of the benefits of using Word is that document files can be stored on a hard disk, CD, flash drive, or other storage device, making them easy to transport, exchange, and revise. Before beginning your memo to the marketing staff, you explore the editing and formatting features available in Word.

You can use Word to accomplish the following tasks: • Type and edit text The Word editing tools make it simple to insert and delete text in a document. You can add text to the middle of an existing paragraph, replace text with other text, undo an editing change, and correct typing, spelling, and grammatical errors with ease.

• Copy and move text from one location to another Using the more advanced editing features of Word, you can copy or move text from one location and insert it in a different location in a document. You also can copy and move text between documents. This means you don’t have to retype text that is already entered in a document.

• Format text and paragraphs with fonts, colors, and other elements The sophisticated formatting tools in Word allow you to make the text in your documents come alive. You can change the size, style, and color of text, add lines and shading to paragraphs, and enhance lists with bullets and numbers. Creatively formatting text helps to highlight important ideas in your documents.

• Format and design pages The page-formatting features in Word give you power to design attractive newsletters, create powerful résumés, and produce documents such as research papers, business cards, CD labels, and books. You can change the paper size and orientation of your documents, organize text in columns, and control the layout of text and graphics on each page of a document. For quick results, Word includes preformatted cover pages, pull quotes, and headers and footers, as well as galleries of coordinated text, table, and graphic styles that you can rely on to give documents a polished look. If you are writing a research paper, Word makes it easy to manage reference sources and create footnotes, endnotes, and bibliographies.

• Enhance documents with tables, charts, diagrams, and graphics Using the powerful graphics tools in Word, you can spice up your documents with pictures, photographs, lines, shapes, and diagrams. You also can illustrate your documents with tables and charts to help convey your message in a visually interesting way.

• Use Mail Merge to create form letters and mailing labels The Word Mail Merge feature allows you to send personalized form letters to many different people. You can also use Mail Merge to create mailing labels, directories, e-mail messages, and other types of documents.

• Share documents securely The security features in Word make it quick and easy to remove comments, tracked changes, and unwanted personal information from your files before you share them with others. You can also add a password or a digital signature to a document and convert a file to a format suitable for publishing on the Web.

Planning a document Before you create a new document, it’s a good idea to spend time planning it. Identify the message you want to convey, the audience for your document, and the elements, such as tables or charts, you want to include. You should also think about the tone and look of your document—are you writing a business letter, which should be written in a pleasant, but serious tone and have a formal appearance, or are you creating a flyer that must be colorful, eye-catching, and fun to

read? The purpose and audience for your document determine the appropriate design. Planning the layout and design of a document involves deciding how to organize the text, selecting the fonts to use, identifying the graphics to include, and selecting the formatting elements that will enhance the message and appeal of the document. For longer documents, such as newsletters, it can be useful to sketch the layout and design of each page before you begin.

The title bar displays the name of the document and the name of the program. Until you give a new document a different name, its temporary name is Document1. The title bar also contains resizing buttons and the program Close button. These buttons are common to all Windows programs. The Quick Access toolbar contains buttons for saving a document and for undoing, redoing, and repeating a change. You can modify the Quick Access toolbar to include the commands you use frequently. The File tab provides access to Backstage view, where you manage files and the information about them. Backstage view includes commands related to working with documents, such as opening, printing, and saving a document. The File tab also provides access to resources for help using Word and to the Word Options dialog box, which is used to customize the way you use Word. The Ribbon contains the Word tabs. Each tab on the Ribbon includes buttons for commands related to editing and formatting, documents. The commands are organized in groups. For example, the Home tab includes the Clipboard, Font, Paragraph, Styles, and Editing groups. The Ribbon also includes the Microsoft Word Help button, which you use to access the Word Help system. The document window displays the current document. You enter text and format your document in the document window. The rulers appear in the document window in Print Layout view. The horizontal ruler displays left and right document margins as well as the tab settings and paragraph indents, if any, for the paragraph in which the insertion point is located. The vertical ruler displays the top and bottom document margins. The vertical scroll bar and the horizontal scroll bar are used to display different parts of the document in the document window. The scroll bars include scroll boxes and scroll arrows, which you can use to scroll through a document. The status bar displays the page number of the current page, the total number of pages and words in the document, and the status of spelling and grammar checking. It also includes the view buttons, the Zoom level button, and the Zoom slider. You can customize the status bar to display other information. The view buttons on the status bar allow you to display the document in Print Layout, Full Screen Reading, Web Layout, Outline, or Draft view. The Zoom level button and the Zoom slider provide quick ways to enlarge and decrease the size of the document in the document window, making it easy to zoom in on a detail of a document or to view the layout of the document as a whole.

STEPS TROUBLE If you press the wrong key, press [Backspace] to erase the mistake, then try again.

St ar t ing a Document You begin a new document by simply typing text in a blank document in the document window. Word includes a word-wrap feature so that as you type Word automatically moves the insertion point to the next line of the document when you reach the right margin. You only press [Enter] when you want to start a new paragraph or insert a blank line. You type a quick memo to the marketing staff.

1. Type Memorandum, then press [Enter] twice Each time you press [Enter] the insertion point moves to the start of the next line.

2. Type TO:, then press [Tab] twice Pressing [Tab] moves the insertion point several spaces to the right. You can use the [Tab] key to align the text in a memo header or to indent the first line of a paragraph.

3. Type QST Managers, then press [Enter] The insertion point moves to the start of the next line. QUICK TIP Wavy lines and other automatic feature markers appear on screen but do not print.

TROUBLE To reverse an AutoCorrect adjustment, immediately click the Undo buton the Quick ton Access toolbar.

4. Type: FROM: [Tab] [Tab] Ron Dawson [Enter] DATE: [Tab] [Tab] July 7, 2013 [Enter] RE: [Tab] [Tab] Marketing Meeting [Enter] [Enter] Red or green wavy lines may appear under the words you typed, indicating a possible spelling or grammar error. Spelling and grammar checking is one of the many automatic features you will encounter as you type. Table A-2 describes several of these automatic features. You can correct any typing errors you make later.

5. Type The next marketing staff meeting will be held on the 11th of July at 1 p.m. in the conference room on the ground floor., then press [Spacebar] As you type, notice that the insertion point moves automatically to the next line of the document. You also might notice that Word automatically changed “11th” to “11th” in the memo. This feature is called AutoCorrect. AutoCorrect automatically makes typographical adjustments and detects and adjusts typing errors, certain misspelled words (such as “taht” for “that”), and incorrect capitalization as you type.

6. Type Heading the agenda will be the launch of our new High Atlas Trek, a rigorous ten-day walking tour of the sunny valleys, remote Berber villages, and steep slopes of Morocco’s High Atlas, scheduled for September 2015. When you type the first few characters of “September,” the Word AutoComplete feature displays the complete word in a ScreenTip. AutoComplete suggests text to insert quickly into your documents. You can ignore AutoComplete for now. Your memo should resemble Figure A-3. QUICK TIP If you want uniform spacing between lines and paragraphs, apply the No Spacing style to the document by clicking the No Spacing button in the Styles group on the Home tab before you begin to type. Alternatively, select the text and then click the No Spacing button.

This is part of the default style for paragraphs in Word, called the Normal style.

8. Position the pointer after for (but before the space) in the last line of the first paragraph, then click Clicking moves the insertion point after “for.”

9. Press [Backspace] three times, then type to depart in Pressing [Backspace] removes the character before the insertion point.

10. Move the insertion point before staff in the first sentence, then press [Delete] six times to remove the word “staff” and the space after it Pressing [Delete] removes the character after the insertion point. Figure A-4 shows the revised memo. Word 6

STEPS TROUBLE If you don’t see the extension .docx as part of the filename, the setting in Windows to display file extensions is not active.

Saving a Document To store a document permanently so you can open it and edit it at another time, you must save it as a file. When you save a document you give it a name, called a filename, and indicate the location where you want to store the file. Files created in Word 2010 are automatically assigned the .docx file extension to distinguish them from files created in other software programs. You can save a document using the Save button on the Quick Access toolbar or the Save command on the File tab. Once you have saved a document for the first time, you should save it again every few minutes and always before printing so that the saved file is updated to reflect your latest changes. You save your memo using a descriptive filename and the default file extension.

1. Click the Save button

on the Quick Access toolbar

The first time you save a document, the Save As dialog box opens, as shown in Figure A-5. The default filename, Memorandum, appears in the File name text box. The default filename is based on the first few words of the document. The default file extension, .docx, appears in the Save as type list box. Table A-3 describes the functions of some of the buttons in the Save As dialog box.

2. Type WD A-Morocco Tour Memo in the File name text box The new filename replaces the default filename. Giving your documents brief descriptive filenames makes it easier to locate and organize them later. You do not need to type .docx when you type a new filename.

3. Navigate to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files You can navigate to a different drive or folder in several ways. For example, you can click a drive or folder in the Address bar or the navigation pane to go directly to that location. Click the double arrow in the Address bar to display a list of drives and folders. You can also double-click a drive or folder in the folder window to change the active location. When you are finished navigating to the drive or folder where you store your Data Files, that location appears in the Address bar. Your Save As dialog box should resemble Figure A-6. QUICK TIP To save a document so it can be opened in an older version of Word, click the Save as type list arrow, then click Word 97-2003 Document (*.doc).

4. Click Save The document is saved to the drive and folder you specified in the Save As dialog box, and the title bar displays the new filename, WD A-Morocco Tour Memo.docx.

5. Place the insertion point before conference in the first sentence, type large, then press [Spacebar] You can continue to work on a document after you have saved it with a new filename.

6. Click Your change to the memo is saved. After you save a document for the first time, you must continue to save the changes you make to the document. You also can press [Ctrl][S] to save a document.

Using Word document views Document views are different ways of displaying a document in the document window. Each Word view provides features that are useful for working on different types of documents. The default view, Print Layout view, displays a document as it will look on a printed page. Print Layout view is helpful for formatting text and pages, including adjusting document margins, creating columns of text, inserting graphics, and formatting headers and footers. Also useful is Draft view, which shows a simplified layout of a document, without margins, headers and footers, or graphics. When you want to quickly type, edit, and format text, it’s often easiest to work in Draft view. Other Word views are helpful for performing specialized tasks. Full Screen Reading view displays document text so that it is easy to

read and annotate. You can easily highlight content, add comments, and track and review changes in Full Screen Reading view. Web Layout view allows you to format Web pages or documents that will be viewed on a computer screen. In Web Layout view, a document appears just as it will when viewed with a Web browser. Finally, Outline view is useful for editing and formatting longer documents that include multiple headings. Outline view allows you to reorganize text by moving the headings. You switch between views by clicking the view buttons on the status bar or by using the commands on the View tab. Changing views does not affect how the printed document will appear. It simply changes the way you view the document in the document window.

Real Life Independent Challenge This Independent Challenge requires an Internet connection. The computer keyboard has become as essential an office tool as the pencil. The more adept you become at touch typing—the fastest and most accurate way to type—the more comfortable you will be working with computers and the more saleable your office skills to a potential employer. The Internet is one source of information on touch typing, and many Web sites include free typing tests and online tutorials to help you practice and improve your typing skills. In this independent challenge, you will take an online typing test to check your typing skills. You will then research the fundamentals of touch typing and investigate some of the ergonomic factors important to becoming a productive keyboard typist. a. Use your favorite search engine to search the Internet for information on typing. Use the keywords typing and typing ergonomics to conduct your search. b. Review the Web sites you find. Choose a site that offers a free online typing test, take the test, then print the Web page showing the results of your typing test if requested to do so by your instructor. c. Start Word and save a new blank document as WD A-Touch Typing to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files. d. Type your name at the top of the document. e. Type a brief report on the results of your research. Your report should answer the following questions: • What are the URLs of the Web sites you visited to research touch typing and keyboard ergonomics? (Hint: A URL is a Web page’s address. An example of a URL is www.course.com.) • What are some benefits of using the touch typing method? • Which keys should the fingers of the left and right hands rest on when using the touch typing method? • What ergonomic factors are important to keep in mind while typing? f. Save your changes to the document, preview and submit it to your instructor, then close the document and exit Word.

STEPS

Cut ting and Pasting Text The editing features in Word allow you to move text from one location to another in a document. Moving text is often called cut and paste. When you cut text, it is removed from the document and placed on the Clipboard, a temporary storage area for text and graphics that you cut or copy from a document. You can then paste, or insert, text that is stored on the Clipboard in the document at the location of the insertion point. You cut and paste text using the Cut and Paste buttons in the Clipboard group on the Home tab. You also can move selected text by dragging it to a new location using the mouse. This operation is called drag and drop. You open the press release that was drafted by a colleague, save it with a new filename, and then reorganize the information in the press release using the cut-and-paste and drag-and-drop methods.

1. Start Word, click the File tab, click Open, navigate to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, click WD B-1.docx, then click Open The document opens. Once you have opened a file, you can edit it and use the Save or the Save As command to save your changes. You use the Save command when you want to save the changes you make to a file, overwriting the file that is stored on a disk. You use the Save As command when you want to leave the original file intact and create a duplicate file with a different filename, file extension, or location.

2. Click the File tab, click Save As, type WD B-Lecture PR in the File name text box, then click Save You can now make changes to the press release file without affecting the original file.

3. Replace Ron Dawson with your name, scroll down until the headline “Helen Moffit to Speak...” is at the top of your document window, then click the Show/Hide ¶ button in the Paragraph group on the Home tab to display formatting marks 4. Select Alaskan guide Gilbert Coonan, (including the comma and the space after it) in the third body paragraph, then click the Cut button in the Clipboard group The text is removed from the document and placed on the Clipboard. Word uses two different clipboards: the system Clipboard (the Clipboard), which holds just one item, and the Office Clipboard, which holds up to 24 items. The last item you cut or copy is always added to both clipboards. You’ll learn more about the Office Clipboard in a later lesson.

5. Place the insertion point before African (but after the space) in the first line of the third paragraph, then click the Paste button in the Clipboard group The text is pasted at the location of the insertion point, as shown in Figure B-1. The Paste Options button appears below text when you first paste it in a document. You’ll learn more about the Paste Options button in the next lesson. For now, you can ignore it.

6. Press and hold [Ctrl], click the sentence Ticket prices include lunch. in the fourth paragraph, then release [Ctrl] The entire sentence is selected.

7. Press and hold the mouse button over the selected text until the pointer changes to The pointer’s vertical line is the insertion point. You drag the pointer to position the insertion point where you want the text to be inserted when you release the mouse button. TROUBLE If you make a mistake, click the Undo on the button Quick Access toolbar, then try again.

8. Drag the pointer’s vertical line to the end of the fifth paragraph (between the period and the paragraph mark) as shown in Figure B-2, then release the mouse button The selected text is moved to the location of the insertion point. It is convenient to move text using the dragand-drop method when the locations of origin and destination are both visible on the screen. Text is not placed on the Clipboard when you drag and drop it.

9. Deselect the text, then click the Save button Word 26

Using keyboard shortcuts A shortcut key is a function key, such as [F1], or a combination of keys, such as [Ctrl][S], that you press to perform a command. For example, instead of using the Cut, Copy, and Paste commands on the Ribbon or the Mini toolbar, you can use the keyboard shortcuts [Ctrl][X] to cut text, [Ctrl][C] to copy text, and [Ctrl][V] to paste text. You can also press [Ctrl][S] to save changes to a document instead of

clicking the Save button on the Quick Access toolbar or clicking Save on the File tab. Becoming skilled at using keyboard shortcuts can help you quickly accomplish many of the tasks you perform in Word. If a keyboard shortcut is available for a command, then it is listed in the ScreenTip for that command.

STEPS TROUBLE If any of the Search Options check boxes are selected in your Find and Replace dialog box, deselect them. If Format appears under the Find what or Replace with text box, click in the text box, then click the No Formatting button.

QUICK TIP To find, review, and replace each occurrence individually, click Find Next.

Finding and Replacing Tex t The Find and Replace feature in Word allows you to automatically search for and replace all instances of a word or phrase in a document. For example, you might need to substitute “tour” for “trip.” To manually locate and replace each instance of “trip” in a long document would be very time-consuming. Using the Replace command you can find and replace all occurrences of specific text at once, or you can choose to find and review each occurrence individually. You also can use the Find command to locate and highlight every occurrence of a specific word or phrase in a document.

STEPS TROUBLE If Word flags your name as misspelled, right-click it, then click Ignore All. If Moffit is not flagged as misspelled, skip to Step 3.

QUICK TIP To change the language used by the Word proofing tools, click the Language button in the Language group on the Review tab, click Set Proofing Language, then click the language you prefer on the menu that opens.

TROUBLE You might need to correct other spelling and grammar errors.

QUICK TIP If Word does not offer a valid correction, correct the error yourself.

Checking Spelling and Grammar When you finish typing and revising a document, you can use the Spelling and Grammar command to search the document for misspelled words and grammar errors. The Spelling and Grammar checker flags possible mistakes, suggests correct spellings, and offers remedies for grammar errors such as subject–verb agreement, repeated words, and punctuation. You use the Spelling and Grammar checker to search your press release for errors. Before beginning the search, you set the Spelling and Grammar checker to ignore words, such as Moffit, that you know are spelled correctly.

1. Right-click Moffit in the headline A menu that includes suggestions for correcting the spelling of “Moffit” opens. You can correct individual spelling and grammar errors by right-clicking text that is underlined with a red or green wavy line and selecting a correction. Although “Moffit” is not in the Word dictionary, it is spelled correctly in the document.

2. Click Ignore All Clicking Ignore All tells Word not to flag “Moffit” as misspelled.

3. Press [Ctrl][Home], click the Review tab, then click the Spelling & Grammar button in the Proofing group The Spelling and Grammar: English (U.S.) dialog box opens, as shown in Figure B-9. The dialog box identifies “inagural” as misspelled and suggests possible corrections for the error. The word selected in the Suggestions box is the correct spelling.

4. Click Change Word replaces the misspelled word with the correctly spelled word. Next, the dialog box identifies “Gaslamp” as a misspelled word and suggests the correction “Gas lamp.” The proper name “Gaslamp Quarter” is spelled correctly in the document.

5. Click Ignore Once Word ignores the spelling. Next, the dialog box indicates that “are” is repeated in a sentence.

6. Click Delete Word deletes the second occurrence of the repeated word. Next, the dialog box flags a subject–verb agreement error and suggests using “is” instead of “are,” as shown in Figure B-10. The phrase selected in the Suggestions box is correct.

7. Click Change Word replaces “are” with “is” in the sentence, and the Spelling and Grammar dialog box closes. Keep in mind that the Spelling and Grammar checker identifies many common errors, but you cannot rely on it to find and correct all spelling and grammar errors in your documents. Always proofread your documents carefully.

8. Click OK to complete the spelling and grammar check, press [Ctrl][Home], then save the document

Inserting text with AutoCorrect As you type, AutoCorrect automatically corrects many commonly misspelled words. By creating your own AutoCorrect entries, you can set Word to insert text that you type often, such as your name or contact information, or to correct words you misspell frequently. For example, you could create an AutoCorrect entry so that the name “Ronald T. Dawson” is automatically inserted whenever you type “rtd” followed by a space. You create AutoCorrect entries and customize other AutoCorrect and AutoFormat options using the AutoCorrect dialog box. To open the AutoCorrect dialog box, click the File tab, click Options, click Proofing in the Word Options dialog box that opens, and then click AutoCorrect Options. On the AutoCorrect tab in the AutoCorrect dialog box, type the text you want to be corrected automatically in the Replace text box (such as

“rtd”), type the text you want to be inserted in its place automatically in the With text box (such as “Ronald T. Dawson”), and then click Add. The AutoCorrect entry is added to the list. Click OK to close the AutoCorrect dialog box, and then click OK to close the Word Options dialog box. Word inserts an AutoCorrect entry in a document when you press [Spacebar] or a punctuation mark after typing the text you want Word to correct. For example, Word inserts “Ronald T. Dawson” when you type “rtd” followed by a space. If you want to remove an AutoCorrect entry you created, simply open the AutoCorrect dialog box, select the AutoCorrect entry you want to remove in the list, click Delete, click OK, and then click OK to close the Word Options dialog box.

Publishing a blog directly from Word A blog, which is short for weblog, is an informal journal that is created by an individual or a group and available to the public on the Internet. A blog usually conveys the ideas, comments, and opinions of the blogger and is written using a strong personal voice. The person who creates and maintains a blog, the blogger, typically updates the blog daily. If you have or want to start a blog, you can configure Word to link to your blog site so that you can write, format, and publish blog entries directly from Word. To create a new blog post, click the File tab, click New, then double-click Blog post to open a predesigned blog post document

that you can customize with your own text, formatting, and images. You can also publish an existing document as a blog post by opening the document, clicking the File tab, clicking Save & Send, and then clicking Publish as Blog Post. In either case, Word prompts you to log onto your personal blog account. To blog directly from Word, you must first obtain a blog account with a blog service provider. Resources, such as the Word Help system and online forums, provide detailed information on obtaining and registering your personal blog account with Word.

STEPS QUICK TIP By default, Word automatically creates a hyperlink to an e-mail address or URL when you type the address or URL in a document.

Adding Hyperlinks A hyperlink is text or a graphic that, when clicked, “jumps” the viewer to a different location or program. When a document is viewed on screen, hyperlinks allow readers to link (or jump) to a Web page, an e-mail address, a file, or a specific location in a document. When you create a hyperlink in a document, you select the text or graphic you want to use as a hyperlink and then you specify the location you want to jump to when the hyperlink is clicked. You create a hyperlink using the Hyperlink button in the Links group on the Insert tab. Text that is formatted as a hyperlink appears as colored, underlined text. Hundreds of people on your lists of press and client contacts will receive the press release by e-mail or Internet fax. To make it easier for these people to access additional information about the series, you add several hyperlinks to the press release.

1. Select your name, click the Insert tab, then click the Hyperlink button in the Links group The Insert Hyperlink dialog box opens, as shown in Figure B-13. You use this dialog box to specify the location of the Web page, file, e-mail address, or position in the current document you want to jump to when the hyperlink—in this case, your name—is clicked.

2. Click E-mail Address in the Link to section The Insert Hyperlink dialog box changes so you can create a hyperlink to your e-mail address.

3. Type your e-mail address in the E-mail address text box, type Travel Lecture Series in the Subject text box, then click OK As you type, Word automatically adds mailto: in front of your e-mail address. After you close the dialog box, the hyperlink text—your name—is formatted in blue and underlined. QUICK TIP To remove a hyperlink, right-click it, then click Remove Hyperlink. Removing a hyperlink removes the link, but the text remains.

4. Press and hold [Ctrl], then click the your name hyperlink An e-mail message addressed to you with the subject “Travel Lecture Series” opens in the default e-mail program. People can use this hyperlink to send you an e-mail message.

5. Close the e-mail message window The hyperlink text changes to purple, indicating the hyperlink has been followed.

6. Scroll down, select Gaslamp Quarter in the second paragraph, click the Hyperlink button, click Existing File or Web Page in the Link to section, type www.gaslamp.org in the Address text box, then click OK As you type the Web address, Word automatically adds “http://” in front of “www.” The text “Gaslamp Quarter” is formatted as a hyperlink to the Gaslamp Quarter Association home page at www.gaslamp.org. When clicked, the hyperlink will open the Web page in the default browser window.

7. Select detailed schedule in the last sentence of the third paragraph, click the Hyperlink button, type www.questspecialtytravel.com in the Address text box, then click OK The text “detailed schedule” is formatted as a hyperlink to the QST Web site. If you point to a hyperlink in Word, the link to location appears in a ScreenTip. You can edit ScreenTip text to make it more descriptive. QUICK TIP You can also edit the hyperlink destination or the hyperlink text.

8. Right-click Quarter in the Gaslamp Quarter hyperlink, click Edit Hyperlink, click ScreenTip in the Edit Hyperlink dialog box, type Map, parking, and other information about the Gaslamp Quarter in the ScreenTip text box, click OK, click OK, save your changes, then point to the Gaslamp Quarter hyperlink in the document The ScreenTip you created appears above the Gaslamp Quarter hyperlink, as shown in Figure B-14.

TROUBLE If you are not working with an active Internet connection, skip this step.

9. Press [Ctrl], click the Gaslamp Quarter hyperlink, click the Word icon on the taskbar, press [Ctrl], click the detailed schedule hyperlink, verify that the links opened in separate tabs in your browser, close the tabs, then click the Word icon on the taskbar to return to the press release document in Word Before distributing a document, it’s important to test each hyperlink to verify it works as you intended.

To e-mail a file, open the file in Word, click the File tab, click Save & Send, and then select one of the options under Send Using E-mail on the Save & Send tab. You can choose to attach the document as a Word file, a .pdf file, or an .xps file, or to send it as an Internet fax. When you click an option, a

message window opens that includes the filename of the current file as the message subject and the file as an attachment. Type the e-mail address(es) of the recipient(s) in the To and Cc text boxes, any message you want in the message window, and then click Send on the message window toolbar to send the message. The default e-mail program sends a copy of the document to each recipient. Note that faxing a document directly from Word requires registration with a third-party Internet fax service. Fax services generally charge a monthly or per page fee for sending and receiving faxes.

STEPS QUICK TIP To create or modify document properties for a file, type in the Document Properties panel text boxes.

Working with Document Proper ties Before you distribute a document electronically to people outside your organization, it’s wise to make sure the file does not include embedded private or confidential information. The Info tab in Backstage view includes tools for stripping a document of sensitive information, for securing its authenticity, and for guarding it from unwanted changes once it is distributed to the public. One of these tools, the Document Inspector, detects and removes unwanted private or confidential information from a document. Before sending the press release to the public, you remove all identifying information from the file.

1. Press [Ctrl][Home], then click the File tab Backstage view opens with the Info tab displayed. The Information pane, in the middle of the tab, includes options related to stripping the file of private information. See Table B-1. The preview pane, on the right side of the tab, displays basic information about the document. Notice that the file contains document properties. You might want to remove these before you distribute the press release to the public.

2. Click the Properties button in the preview pane, then click Show Document Panel The Document Properties panel opens above the document window, as shown in Figure B-15. It shows the standard document properties for the press release. Document properties are user-defined details about a file that describe its contents and origin, including the name of the author, the title of the document, and keywords that you can assign to help organize and search your files. You decide to remove this information from the file before you distribute it electronically.

3. Click the File tab, click the Check for Issues button, then click Inspect Document, clicking Yes if prompted to save changes The Document Inspector dialog box opens. You use this dialog box to indicate which private or identifying information you want to search for and remove from the document.

4. Make sure all the check boxes are selected, then click Inspect QUICK TIP A document property, such as author name, might appear automatically in a content control in a document. Stripping a file of document properties does not remove this information from a content control.

After a moment, the Document Inspector dialog box changes to indicate that the file contains document properties.

5. Click Remove All next to Document Properties, then click Close The standard document property information is removed from the press release document.

6. Click the Properties button in the preview pane, then click Show Document Panel The Document Properties panel opens and shows that the document properties have been removed from the file.

STEPS

For mat t ing with Fon t s Formatting text with fonts is a quick and powerful way to enhance the appearance of a document. A font is a complete set of characters with the same typeface or design. Arial, Times New Roman, Courier, Tahoma, and Calibri are some of the more common fonts, but there are hundreds of others, each with a specific design and feel. Another way to change the appearance of text is to increase or decrease its font size. Font size is measured in points. A point is 1⁄ 72 of an inch. You change the font and font size of the body text, title, and headings in the flyer. You select fonts and font sizes that enhance the sales tone of the document and help to structure the flyer visually for readers.

1. Start Word, open the file WD C-1.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, then save it as WD C-Last Minute Deals

QUICK TIP There are two types of fonts: serif fonts have a small stroke, called a serif, at the ends of characters; sans serif fonts do not have a serif. Garamond is a serif font. Trebuchet MS is a sans serif font.

QUICK TIP You can also type a font size in the Font Size text box.

Notice that the name of the font used in the document, Calibri, is displayed in the Font list box in the Font group. The word “(Body)” in the Font list box indicates Calibri is the font used for body text in the current theme, the default theme. A theme is a related set of fonts, colors, styles, and effects that is applied to an entire document to give it a cohesive appearance. The font size, 11, appears in the Font Size list box in the Font group.

2. Scroll the document to get a feel for its contents, press [Ctrl][Home], press [Ctrl][A] to select the entire document, then click the Font list arrow in the Font group The Font list, which shows the fonts available on your computer, opens as shown in Figure C-1. The font names are formatted in the font. Font names can appear in more than one location on the font list.

3. Drag the pointer slowly down the font names in the Font list, drag the scroll box to scroll down the Font list, then click Garamond Dragging the pointer down the font list allows you to preview how the selected text will look in the highlighted font. Clicking a font name applies the font. The font of the flyer changes to Garamond.

4. Click the Font Size list arrow in the Font group, drag the pointer slowly up and down the Font Size list, then click 12 Dragging the pointer over the font sizes allows you to preview how the selected text will look in the highlighted font size. Clicking 12 increases the font size of the selected text to 12 points.

5. Select the title Quest Specialty Travel Last Minute Travel Deals, click the Font list arrow, scroll to and click Trebuchet MS, click the Font Size list arrow, click 22, then click the Bold button in the Font group The title is formatted in 22-point Trebuchet MS bold.

Adding a drop cap A fun way to illustrate a document with fonts is to add a drop cap to a paragraph. A drop cap is a large initial capital letter, often used to set off the first paragraph of an article. To create a drop cap, place the insertion point in the paragraph you want to format, click the Insert tab, and then click the Drop Cap button in the Text group to open a menu of Drop cap options. Preview and select one of the options on the menu, or click Drop Cap Options to open the Drop Cap dialog box, shown in Figure C-4. In the Drop Cap dialog box, select the position, font, number of lines to drop, and the distance you want the drop cap to be from the paragraph text, and then click OK. The drop cap is added to the paragraph as a graphic object. Once a drop cap is inserted in a paragraph, you can modify it by selecting it and then changing the settings in the Drop Cap dialog box. For even more interesting effects, you can enhance a drop cap with font color, font styles, or font effects. You can also fill the graphic object with shading or add a border around it. To enhance a drop cap, first select it, and then experiment with the formatting options available in the Font dialog box and in the Borders and Shading dialog box.

Changing Line and Par agr aph Spacing Increasing the amount of space between lines adds more white space to a document and can make it easier to read. Adding space before and after paragraphs can also open up a document and improve its appearance. You use the Line and Paragraph Spacing list arrow in the Paragraph group on the Home tab to quickly change line spacing. To change paragraph spacing, you use the Spacing options in the Paragraph group on the Page Layout tab. Line and paragraph spacing are measured in points.

Formatting with Quick Styles You can also apply multiple format settings to text in one step by applying a style. A style is a set of formats, such as font, font size, and paragraph alignment, that are named and stored together. Formatting a document with styles is a quick and easy way to give it a professional appearance. To make it even easier, Word includes sets of styles, called Quick Styles, that are designed to be used together in a document to make it attractive and readable. A Quick Style set includes styles for a title, several heading levels, body text, quotes, and lists. The styles in a Quick Style set use common fonts, colors, and formats so that using the styles together in a document gives the document a cohesive look. To view the active set of Quick Styles, click the More button in the Styles group on the Home tab to expand the Quick Styles gallery, shown in Figure C-9. As you move the pointer over each style in the gallery, a preview of the style is applied to the selected text. To apply a style to the selected text, you simply click the style in the Quick Styles gallery. To remove a style from selected text, you click the Clear Formatting button in the Font group or in the Quick Styles gallery. If you want to change the active set of Quick Styles to a Quick Style set with a different design, click the Change Styles button in the Styles group, point to Style Set, and then select the Quick Style set that best suits your document’s content, tone, and audience.

When you change the Quick Style set, a complete set of new fonts and colors is applied to the entire document. You can also change the color scheme or font used in the active Quick Style set by clicking the Change Styles button, pointing to Colors or to Fonts, and then selecting from the available color schemes or font options.

Aligning Par agr aphs Changing paragraph alignment is another way to enhance a document’s appearance. Paragraphs are aligned relative to the left and right margins in a document. By default, text is left-aligned, which means it is flush with the left margin and has a ragged right edge. Using the alignment buttons in the Paragraph group, you can right-align a paragraph—make it flush with the right margin—or center a paragraph so that it is positioned evenly between the left and right margins. You can also justify a paragraph so that both the left and right edges of the paragraph are flush with the left and right margins. You change the alignment of several paragraphs at the beginning of the flyer to make it more visually interesting.

1. Replace Your Name, Today’s Date with your name, a comma, and the date 2. Select your name, the comma, and the date, then click the Align Text Right button the Paragraph group

The text is aligned with the right margin. In Page Layout view, the place where the white and shaded sections of the horizontal ruler meet shows the left and right margins.

3. Place the insertion point between your name and the comma, press [Delete] to delete the comma, then press [Enter] The new paragraph containing the date is also right-aligned. Pressing [Enter] in the middle of a paragraph creates a new paragraph with the same text and paragraph formatting as the original paragraph.

4. Select the two-line title, then click the Center button

in the Paragraph group

The two paragraphs that make up the title are centered between the left and right margins. QUICK TIP Click the Align Text Left button in the Paragraph group to left-align a paragraph.

Formatting a document using themes Changing the theme applied to a document is another powerful and efficient way to tailor a document’s look and feel, particularly when a document is formatted with a Quick Style set. By default, all documents created in Word are formatted with the default Office theme—which uses Calibri as the font for the body text—but you can change the theme at any time to fit the content, tone, and purpose of a document. When you change the theme for a document, a complete set of new theme colors, fonts, and effects is applied to the whole document. To preview how various themes look when applied to the current document, click the Themes button in the Themes group on the Page Layout tab, and then move the pointer over each theme in the gallery and notice how the document changes. When you click the theme you like, all document content that uses theme colors, all text

that is formatted with a style, including default body text, and all table styles and graphic effects change to the colors, fonts, and effects used by the theme. In addition, the gallery of colors changes to display the set of theme colors, and the active Quick Style set changes to employ the theme colors and fonts. Note that changing the theme does not affect the formatting of text to which font formatting has already been applied, nor does it change any standard or custom colors used in the document. If you want to tweak the document design further, you can modify it by applying a different set of theme colors, heading and body text fonts, or graphic effects. To do this, simply click the Theme Colors, Theme Fonts, or Theme Effects button in the Themes group, move the pointer over each option in the gallery to preview it in the document, and then click the option you like best.

Wor k ing wi t h Tabs Tabs allow you to align text at a specific location in a document. A tab stop is a point on the horizontal ruler that indicates the location at which to align text. By default, tab stops are located every 1⁄2" from the left margin, but you can also set custom tab stops. Using tabs, you can align text to the left, right, or center of a tab stop, or you can align text at a decimal point or insert a bar character. Table C-1 describes the different types of tab stops. You set tabs using the horizontal ruler or the Tabs dialog box. You use tabs to format the summary information on last minute tour deals so it is easy to read.

1. Scroll as needed, then select the five-line list beginning with “Trip Dates Cost” Before you set tab stops for existing text, you must select the paragraphs for which you want to set tabs.

6. Insert a tab at the beginning of each remaining line in the list QUICK TIP Place the insertion point in a paragraph to see the tab stops for that paragraph on the horizontal ruler.

The paragraphs left-align at the 1" mark.

7. Insert a tab before each Oct. in the list, then insert a tab before each $ in the list The dates left-align at the 3½" mark. The prices right-align at the 5" mark.

8. Select the five lines of tabbed text, drag the right tab stop to the 5½" mark on the horizontal ruler, then deselect the text Dragging the tab stop moves it to a new location. The prices right-align at the 5½" mark.

STEPS QUICK TIP Press [Tab] at the beginning of a paragraph to indent the first line ½".

Wor king wi t h Inden t s When you indent a paragraph, you move its edge in from the left or right margin. You can indent the entire left or right edge of a paragraph, just the first line, or all lines except the first line. The indent markers on the horizontal ruler indicate the indent settings for the paragraph in which the insertion point is located. Dragging an indent marker to a new location on the ruler is one way to change the indentation of a paragraph; changing the indent settings in the Paragraph group on the Page Layout tab is another; and using the indent buttons in the Paragraph group on the Home tab is a third. Table C-2 describes different types of indents and some of the methods for creating each. You indent several paragraphs in the flyer.

1. Press [Ctrl][Home], place the insertion point in the italicized paragraph under the title, then click the Increase Indent button in the Paragraph group on the Home tab The entire paragraph is indented ½" from the left margin, as shown in Figure C-15. The indent marker also moves to the ½" mark on the horizontal ruler. Each time you click the Increase Indent button, the left edge of a paragraph moves another ½" to the right.

2. Click the Decrease Indent button

in the Paragraph group

The left edge of the paragraph moves ½" to the left, and the indent marker moves back to the left margin. TROUBLE Take care to drag only the First Line Indent marker. If you make a mistake, click the Undo but, then try ton again.

3. Drag the First Line Indent marker

to the ¼" mark on the horizontal ruler

Figure C-16 shows the First Line Indent marker being dragged. The first line of the paragraph is indented ¼". Dragging the First Line Indent marker indents only the first line of a paragraph.

4. Scroll to the bottom of page 1, place the insertion point in the quotation, click the Page Layout tab, click the Indent Left text box in the Paragraph group, type .5, click the Indent Right text box, type .5, then press [Enter] The left and right edges of the paragraph are indented ½" from the margins, as shown in Figure C-17.

5. Press [Ctrl][Home], place the insertion point in the italicized paragraph, then click the launcher in the Paragraph group The Paragraph dialog box opens. You can use the Indents and Spacing tab to check or change the alignment, indentation, and paragraph and line spacing settings applied to a paragraph.

6. Click the Special list arrow, click (none), click OK, then save your changes The first line indent is removed from the paragraph.

Clearing formatting If you are unhappy with the way text is formatted, you can use the Clear Formatting command to return the text to the default format settings. The default format includes font and paragraph formatting: text is formatted in 11-point Calibri, and paragraphs are left-aligned with 1.15 point line spacing, 10 points of space below, and no indents. To clear formatting from text and return it to the default format, select the text you want to clear, and then click the Clear

STEPS QUICK TIP You must be working with an active Internet connection to complete this lesson.

Inser t ing Clip Ar t Clip art is a collection of graphic images that you can insert into a document. Clip art images are stored in the Clip Organizer, which is a library of the clips—media files such as graphics, photographs, sounds, movies, and animations—that come with Word. You can add a clip to a document using the Clip Art command on the Insert tab. Once you insert a clip art image, you can wrap text around it, resize it, enhance it, and move it to a different location. You illustrate the second page of the document with a clip art image.

1. Scroll to the top of page 2, place the insertion point before Everest Base Camp Trek, click the Insert tab, then click the Clip Art button in the Illustrations group The Clip Art task pane opens. You can use this task pane to search for clips related to a keyword.

2. Select the text in the Search for text box if necessary, type Himalayas, make sure the Include Office.com content check box has a check mark, click the Results should be list arrow, make sure All media types has a check mark, then click Go Clips that have the keyword “Himalayas” associated with them appear in the Clip Art task pane, as shown in Figure C-24.

TROUBLE Select a different clip if the clip shown in Figure C-24 is not available to you. You can also search using the keyword “mountain.”

3. Point to the clip called out in Figure C-24, click the list arrow that appears next to the clip, click Insert on the menu, then close the Clip Art task pane The clip is inserted at the location of the insertion point. When a graphic is selected, the active tab changes to the Picture Tools Format tab. This tab contains commands used to adjust, enhance, arrange, and size graphics. The white circles that appear on the square edges of the graphic are the sizing handles.

4. Type 3.1 in the Shape Height text box in the Size group on the Picture Tools Format tab, then press [Enter] The size of the graphic is reduced. When you decreased the height of the graphic, the width decreased proportionally. You can also resize a graphic proportionally by dragging a corner sizing handle. Now that the graphic is smaller, you can see that it was inserted at the location of the insertion point. Until you apply text wrapping to a graphic, it is part of the line of text in which it was inserted (an inline graphic). To move a graphic independently of text, you must make it a floating graphic.

QUICK TIP To position a graphic using precise measurements, click the Position button, click More Layout Options, then adjust the settings on the Position tab in the Layout dialog box.

5. Click the Position button in the Arrange group, then click Position in Middle Center with Square Text Wrapping The graphic is moved to the middle of the page and the text wraps around it. Applying text wrapping to the graphic made it a floating graphic. A floating graphic can be moved anywhere on a page.

6. Position the pointer over the graphic, when the pointer changes to drag the graphic up and to the left so its top aligns with the top of the paragraph under the Everest Base Camp Trek heading as shown in Figure C-25, then release the mouse button The graphic is moved to the upper-left corner of the page.

7. Click the Position button in the Arrange group, then click Position in Top Right with Square Text Wrapping The graphic is moved to the upper-right corner of the page.

TROUBLE If your document is longer than two pages, reduce the size of the clip art graphic by dragging the lower-left corner sizing handle up and to the right.

Real Life Independent Challenge The fonts you choose for a document can have a major effect on the document’s tone. Not all fonts are appropriate for use in a business document, and some fonts, especially those with a definite theme, are appropriate only for specific purposes. In this Independent Challenge, you will use font formatting and other formatting features to design a letterhead and a fax coversheet for yourself or your business. The letterhead and coversheet should not only look professional and attract interest, but also say something about the character of your business or your personality. Figure C-32 shows an example of a business letterhead.

STEPS TROUBLE Click the View Ruler at the button top of the vertical scroll bar to display the rulers if they are not already displayed.

Set ting Document Margins Changing a document’s margins is one way to change the appearance of a document and control the amount of text that fits on a page. The margins of a document are the blank areas between the edge of the text and the edge of the page. When you create a document in Word, the default margins are 1" at the top, bottom, left, and right sides of the page. You can adjust the size of a document’s margins using the Margins command on the Page Layout tab or using the rulers. The report should be a four-page document when finished. You begin by reducing the size of the document margins so that more text fits on each page.

1. Start Word, open the file WD D-1.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, then save it as WD D-Healthy Traveler The report opens in Print Layout view.

2. Scroll through the report to get a feel for its contents, then press [Ctrl][Home] The report is currently five pages long. Notice that the status bar indicates the page where the insertion point is located and the total number of pages in the document.

3. Click the Page Layout tab, then click the Margins button in the Page Setup group The Margins menu opens. You can select predefined margin settings from this menu, or you can click Custom Margins to create different margin settings. QUICK TIP You can also click the launcher in the Page Setup group to open the Page Setup dialog box.

4. Click Custom Margins The Page Setup dialog box opens with the Margins tab displayed, as shown in Figure D-1. You can use the Margins tab to change the top, bottom, left, or right document margin, to change the orientation of the pages from portrait to landscape, and to alter other page layout settings. Portrait orientation means a page is taller than it is wide; landscape orientation means a page is wider than it is tall. This report uses portrait orientation. You can also use the Orientation button in the Page Setup group on the Page Layout tab to change the orientation of a document.

5. Click the Top down arrow three times until 0.7" appears, then click the Bottom down arrow until 0.7" appears The top and bottom margins of the report will be .7". Notice that the margins in the Preview section of the dialog box change as you adjust the margin settings. QUICK TIP The minimum allowable margin settings depend on your printer and the size of the paper you are using. Word displays a warning message if you set margins that are too narrow for your printer.

6. Press [Tab], type .7 in the Left text box, press [Tab], then type .7 in the Right text box The left and right margins of the report will also be .7". You can change the margin settings by using the arrows or by typing a value in the appropriate text box.

7. Click OK The document margins change to .7", as shown in Figure D-2. The location of each margin (right, left, top, and bottom) is shown on the horizontal and vertical rulers at the intersection of the white and shaded areas. You can also change a margin setting by using the pointer to drag the intersection to a new location on the ruler.

8. Click the View tab, then click the Two Pages button in the Zoom group The first two pages of the document appear in the document window.

9. Scroll down to view all five pages of the report, press [Ctrl][Home], click the Page Width button in the Zoom group, then save your changes

Changing orientation, margin settings, and paper size By default, the documents you create in Word use an 81/2" ⫻ 11" paper size in portrait orientation with the default margin settings. You can change the orientation, margin settings, and paper size to common settings using the Orientation, Margins, and Size buttons in the Page Setup group on the Page Layout tab. You can also adjust these settings and others in the Page Setup dialog box. For example, to change the layout of multiple pages, use the Multiple pages list arrow on the Margins tab to create pages that use mirror margins, that include two pages per sheet of paper, or that are formatted using a book fold. Mirror margins are used in a document with facing pages, such as a magazine, where the margins on the left page

of the document are a mirror image of the margins on the right page. Documents with mirror margins have inside and outside margins, rather than right and left margins. Another type of margin is a gutter margin, which is used in documents that are bound, such as books. A gutter adds extra space to the left, top, or inside margin to allow for the binding. Add a gutter to a document by adjusting the setting in the Gutter position text box on the Margins tab. To change the size of the paper used, use the Paper size list arrow on the Paper tab to select a standard paper size, or enter custom measurements in the Width and Height text boxes.

STEPS QUICK TIP Use the Customize Status Bar menu to turn on and off the display of information in the status bar.

QUICK TIP When you insert a section break at the beginning of a paragraph, Word inserts the break at the end of the previous paragraph. A section break stores the formatting information for the preceding section.

QUICK TIP When you delete a section break, you delete the section formatting of the text before the break. That text becomes part of the following section, and it assumes the formatting of that section.

Creating Sections and Columns Dividing a document into sections allows you to format each section of the document with different page layout settings. A section is a portion of a document that is separated from the rest of the document by section breaks. Section breaks are formatting marks that you insert in a document to show the end of a section. Once you have divided a document into sections, you can format each section with different column, margin, page orientation, header and footer, and other page layout settings. By default, a document is formatted as a single section, but you can divide a document into as many sections as you like. You insert a section break to divide the document into two sections, and then format the text in the second section in two columns. First, you customize the status bar to display section information.

1. Right-click the status bar, click Section on the Customize Status Bar menu that opens (if it is not already checked), then click the document to close the menu The status bar indicates the insertion point is located in section 1 of the document.

2. Click the Home tab, then click the Show/Hide ¶ button

in the Paragraph group

Turning on formatting marks allows you to see the section breaks you insert in a document.

3. Place the insertion point before the heading General Considerations, click the Page Layout tab, then click the Breaks button in the Page Setup group The Breaks menu opens. You use this menu to insert different types of section breaks. See Table D-1.

4. Click Continuous Word inserts a continuous section break, shown as a dotted double line, above the heading. The document now has two sections. Notice that the status bar indicates the insertion point is in section 2.

5. Click the Columns button in the Page Setup group The columns menu opens. You use this menu to format text using preset column formats or to create custom columns.

6. Click More Columns to open the Columns dialog box 7. Select Two in the Presets section, click the Spacing down arrow twice until 0.3" appears as shown in Figure D-3, then click OK Section 2 is formatted in two columns of equal width with .3" of spacing between, as shown in Figure D-4. Formatting text in columns is another way to increase the amount of text that fits on a page.

8. Click the View tab, click the Two Pages button in the Zoom group, scroll down to examine all four pages of the document, press [Ctrl][Home], then save the document The text in section 2—all the text below the continuous section break—is formatted in two columns. Text in columns flows automatically from the bottom of one column to the top of the next column.

Changing page layout settings for a section Dividing a document into sections allows you to vary the layout of a document. In addition to applying different column settings to sections, you can apply different margins, page orientation, paper size, vertical alignment, header and footer, page numbering, footnotes, endnotes, and other page layout settings. For example, if you are formatting a report that includes a table with many columns, you might want to change the table’s page orientation to landscape so that it is easier to read. To do this, you would insert a section break before and after the table to create a section that contains only the table, and then you would change the page orientation of the section that contains the table to landscape. If the table does not fill the page, you could also change the vertical alignment of the table

so that it is centered vertically on the page. To do this, use the Vertical alignment list arrow on the Layout tab of the Page Setup dialog box. To check or change the page layout settings for an individual section, place the insertion point in the section, then open the Page Setup dialog box. Select any options you want to change, click the Apply to list arrow, click This section, then click OK. When you select This section in the Apply to list box, the settings are applied to the current section only. If you select Whole document in the Apply to list box, the settings are applied to all the sections in the document. Use the Apply to list arrow in the Columns dialog box or the Footnote and Endnote dialog box to change those settings for a section.

STEPS

Inser ting Page Breaks As you type text in a document, Word inserts an automatic page break (also called a soft page break) when you reach the bottom of a page, allowing you to continue typing on the next page. You can also force text onto the next page of a document by using the Breaks command to insert a manual page break (also called a hard page break). You insert manual page breaks where you know you want to begin each new page of the report.

1. Click the Page Width button, scroll to the bottom of page 1, place the insertion point before the heading Malaria: A Serious …, click the Page Layout tab, then click the Breaks button in the Page Setup group The Breaks menu opens. You also use this menu to insert page, column, and text-wrapping breaks. Table D-2 describes these types of breaks. QUICK TIP To control the flow of text between columns, insert a column break to force the text after the break to the top of the next column.

QUICK TIP You can also doubleclick a page break to select it, and then press [Delete] to delete it. You know the page break is selected when both the words and the paragraph mark at the end of the page break are selected.

QUICK TIP You can balance columns of unequal length on a page by inserting a continuous section break at the end of the last column on the page.

2. Click Page Word inserts a manual page break before “Malaria: A Serious Health Risk for Travelers” and moves all the text following the page break to the beginning of the next page, as shown in Figure D-5. The page break appears as a dotted line in Print Layout view when formatting marks are displayed. Page break marks are visible on the screen but do not print.

3. Scroll down, place the insertion point before the heading Preventive Options… on page 2, press and hold [Ctrl], then press [Enter] Pressing [Ctrl][Enter] is a fast way to insert a manual page break. The heading is forced to the top of the third page.

4. Scroll to the bottom of page 3, place the insertion point before the heading Insurance for Travelers on page 3, then press [Ctrl][Enter] The heading is forced to the top of the fourth page.

5. Scroll up, click to the left of the page break on page 2 with the selection pointer select the page break, then press [Delete]

to

The manual page break is deleted and the text from pages 2 and 3 flows together. You can also use the selection pointer to click to the left of a section or a column break to select it.

6. Place the insertion point before the heading Medical Kit…. on page 2, then press [Ctrl][Enter] The heading is forced to the top of the third page.

7. Click the View tab, click the Two Pages button in the Zoom group, scroll to view all four pages of the document, then save your changes Pages 3 and 4 are shown in Figure D-6.

Controlling automatic pagination Another way to control the flow of text between pages (or between columns) is to apply pagination settings to specify where Word positions automatic page breaks. For example, you might want to make sure an article appears on the same page as its heading, or you might want to prevent a page from breaking in the middle of the last paragraph of a report. To manipulate automatic pagination, simply select the paragraphs(s) or line(s) you want to control, click the launcher in the Paragraph group on the Home or Page Layout tab, click the Line and Page Breaks tab in the Paragraph dialog box, select one or more of the following settings in the Pagination section, and then click OK. Pagination settings include the following: • Keep with next setting—apply to any paragraph you want to appear together with the next paragraph on a single page in

Word 82

order to prevent the page from breaking between the paragraphs. • Keep lines together setting—apply to selected paragraph or lines to prevent a page from breaking in the middle of a paragraph or between certain lines. • Page break before setting—apply to specify that a selected paragraph follows an automatic page break. • Widow/Orphan control setting—turned on by default in the Pagination section of the dialog box. This setting ensures that at least two lines of a paragraph appear at the top and bottom of every page. In other words, it prevents a page from beginning with just the last line of a paragraph (a widow), and prevents a page from ending with only the first line of a new paragraph (an orphan).

STEPS QUICK TIP Point to Current Position to insert a page number field at the location of the insertion point.

Inser ting Page Numbers If you want to number the pages of a multiple-page document, you can insert a page number field to add a page number to each page. A field is a code that serves as a placeholder for data that changes in a document, such as a page number or the current date. When you use the Page Number button on the Insert tab to add page numbers to a document, you insert the page number field at the top, bottom, or side of any page, and Word automatically numbers all the pages in the document for you. You insert a page number field so that page numbers will appear centered between the margins at the bottom of each page in the document.

1. Press [Ctrl][Home], click the Page Width button in the Zoom group on the View tab, click the Insert tab, then click the Page Number button in the Header & Footer group The Page Number menu opens. You use this menu to select the position for the page numbers. If you choose to add a page number field to the top, bottom, or side of a document, a page number will appear on every page in the document. If you choose to insert it in the document at the location of the insertion point, the field will appear on that page only.

2. Point to Bottom of Page A gallery of formatting and alignment options for page numbers to be inserted at the bottom of a page opens, as shown in Figure D-7. QUICK TIP To change the location or formatting of page numbers, click the Page Number button, point to a page number location, then select a format from the gallery.

3. Scroll down the gallery to view the options, scroll to the top of the gallery, then click Plain Number 2 in the Simple section A page number field containing the number 1 is centered in the Footer area at the bottom of page 1 of the document, as shown in Figure D-8. The document text is gray, or dimmed, because the Footer area is open. Text that is inserted in a Footer area appears at the bottom of every page in a document.

4. Double-click the document text, then scroll to the bottom of page 1 Double-clicking the document text closes the Footer area. The page number is now dimmed because it is located in the Footer area, which is no longer the active area. When the document is printed, the page numbers appear as normal text. You will learn more about working with the Footer area in the next lesson.

5. Scroll down the document to see the page number at the bottom of each page Word numbered each page of the report automatically, and each page number is centered at the bottom of the page. If you want to change the numbering format or start page numbering with a different number, you can simply click the Page Number button, click Format Page Numbers, and then choose from the options in the Page Number Format dialog box. QUICK TIP

6. Press [Ctrl][Home], then save the document

To remove page numbers from a document, click the Page Number button, then click Remove Page Numbers.

STEPS TROUBLE Scroll up as needed to see the note reference mark; then scroll down to see the footnote.

Adding Footnotes and Endnotes Footnotes and endnotes are used in documents to provide further information, explanatory text, or references for text in a document. A footnote or endnote is an explanatory note that consists of two linked parts: the note reference mark that appears next to text to indicate that additional information is offered in a footnote or endnote, and the corresponding footnote or endnote text. Word places footnotes at the end of each page and endnotes at the end of the document. You insert and manage footnotes and endnotes using the tools in the Footnotes group on the References tab. You add several footnotes to the report.

1. Press [Ctrl][Home], place the insertion point at the end of the first body paragraph in the second column of text (after “resort.”), click the References tab, then click the Insert Footnote button in the Footnotes group A note reference mark, in this case a superscript 1, appears after “resort.”, and the insertion point moves below a separator line at the bottom of the page. A note reference mark can be a number, a symbol, a character, or a combination of characters.

2. Type Behavior is a critical factor, regardless of the quality of accommodations. For example, going outdoors in a malaria-endemic area could result in becoming infected with malaria. The footnote text appears below the separator line at the bottom of page 1, as shown in Figure D-14. QUICK TIP To change the number format of the note reference mark or to use a symbol instead of a character, click the in launcher the Footnotes group, select from the options in the Footnote and Endnote dialog box, then click Apply.

3. Scroll down until the bottom half of page 3 appears in the document window, place the insertion point at the end of “Medications taken on a regular basis at home” in the second column, click the Insert Footnote button, then type All medications should be stored in carry-on luggage, in their original containers with clear labels. Carry a duplicate supply in checked luggage. The footnote text for the second footnote appears at the bottom of the second column on page 3.

4. Place the insertion point at the end of “Sunscreen” in the bulleted list in the second column, click the Insert Footnote button, then type SPF 15 or greater. The footnote text for the third footnote appears under the second footnote text at the bottom of page 3.

STEPS

Inser ting Citations The Word References feature allows you to keep track of the reference sources you consult when writing research papers, reports, and other documents, and makes it easy to insert a citation in a document. A citation is a parenthetical reference in the document text that gives credit to the source for a quotation or other information used in a document. Citations usually include the name of the author and, for print sources, a page number. When you insert a citation you can use an existing source or create a new source. Each time you create a new source, the source information is saved on your computer so that it is available for use in any document. The report already includes two citations. You add several more citations to the report.

1. Place the insertion point after “people travel” but before the period at the end of the first paragraph in the first column of text, click the Style list arrow in the Citations & Bibliography group, then click MLA Sixth Edition You will format the sources and citations in the report using the style recommended by the Modern Language Association (MLA). QUICK TIP When you create a new source for a document, it appears automatically in the bibliography when you generate it.

QUICK TIP Only sources that you associate with a document stay with the document when you move it to another computer. The master list of sources remains on the computer where it was created.

QUICK TIP You can also choose to add or remove the author, year, or title from a citation.

2. Click the Insert Citation button in the Citations & Bibliography group A list of the sources already used in the document opens. You can choose to cite one of these sources, create a new source, or add a placeholder for a source. When you add a new citation to a document, the source is added to the list of master sources that is stored on the computer. The new source is also associated with the document.

3. Click Add New Source, click the Type of Source list arrow in the Create Source dialog box, scroll down to view the available source types, click Report, then click the Corporate Author check box You select the type of source and enter the source information in the Create Source dialog box. The fields available in the dialog box change, depending on the type of source selected.

4. Enter the data shown in Figure D-16 in the Create Source dialog box, then click OK The citation (World Tourism Organization) appears at the end of the paragraph. Because the source is a print publication, it needs to include a page number.

6. Type 19 in the Pages text box, then click OK The page number 19 is added to the citation.

STEPS QUICK TIP You must copy sources from the Master List to the Current List for the sources to be available when you open the document on another computer.

Managing Sources and Creating a Bibliography Many documents require a bibliography, a list of sources that you used in creating the document. The list of sources can include only the works cited in your document (a works cited list) or both the works cited and the works consulted (a bibliography). The Bibliography feature in Word allows you to generate a works cited list or a bibliography automatically based on the source information you provide for the document. The Source Manager dialog box helps you to organize your sources. You add a bibliography to the report. The bibliography is inserted as a field, and it can be formatted any way you choose.

1. Press [Ctrl][End] to move the insertion point to the end of the document, then click the Manage Sources button in the Citations & Bibliography group The Source Manager dialog box opens, as shown in Figure D-19. The Master List shows the sources available on your computer. The Current List shows the sources available in the current document. A check mark next to a source indicates the source is cited in the document. You use the tools in the Source Manager dialog box to add, edit, and delete sources from the lists, and to copy sources between the Master List and the Current List. The sources that appear in the Current List are the sources that will appear in the bibliography.

2. Click the Baker, Mary source in the Current List A preview of the citation and bibliographical entry for the source in MLA style appears in the Preview box. You do not want this source to be included in your bibliography for the report.

3. Click Delete The source is removed from the Current List.

4. Click Close, click the Bibliography button in the Citations & Bibliography group, click Bibliography, then scroll up to see the heading Bibliography at the top of the field A Bibliography field is added at the location of the insertion point. The bibliography includes all the sources associated with the document, formatted in the MLA style for bibliographies. The text in the Bibliography field is formatted with the default styles. You want to format the text to match the rest of the report. TROUBLE Don't be concerned if the list of sources becomes gray when you select the heading Bibliography. This simply indicates the Bibliography field is active. Text that is selected is highlighted in blue.

5. Select Bibliography; apply the following formats: Berlin Sans FB Demi, bold, and the Blue, Accent 1 font color; drag down the list of sources to select the entire list and change the font size to 11; then click outside the bibliography to deselect it The format of the bibliography text now matches the rest of the report.

6. Press [Ctrl][End], type your name, click the View tab, then click Two Pages Completed pages 3 and 4 of the report are shown in the document window, as shown in Figure D-20.

7. Scroll up to view pages 1 and 2 Completed pages 1 and 2 are shown in Figure D-21.

8. Save your changes, submit your document, close the file, then exit Word Working with Web sources Publications found on the Web can be challenging to document. Many Web sites can be accessed under multiple domains, and URLs change frequently or are so long that they cannot be typed easily. In addition, electronic publications are often updated frequently, making each visit to a Web site potentially unique. For these reasons, it’s best to rely on the author, title, and publication information for a Web publication when citing it as a source in a research document. If

Word 94

possible, you can include a URL as supplementary information only, along with the date the Web site was last updated and the date you accessed the site. Whatever format you use for citing Web publications, it’s important to be consistent throughout your document. Since Web sites are often removed, it’s also a good idea to download or print any Web source you use so that it can be verified later.

Real Life Independent Challenge One of the most common opportunities to use the page layout features of Word is when formatting a research paper. The format recommended by the MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers, a style guide that includes information on preparing, writing, and formatting research papers, is the standard format used by many schools, colleges, and universities. In this independent challenge, you will research the MLA guidelines for formatting a research paper and use the guidelines you find to format the pages of a sample research report. a. Use your favorite search engine to search the Web for information on the MLA guidelines for formatting a research report. Use the keywords MLA Style and research paper format to conduct your search. b. Look for information on the proper formatting for the following aspects of a research paper: paper size, margins, title page or first page of the report, line spacing, paragraph indentation, and page numbers. Also find information on proper formatting for citations and a works cited page. Print the information you find. c. Start Word, open the file WD D-6.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, then save it as WD D-Research Paper. Using the information you learned, format this document as a research report. d. Adjust the margins, set the line spacing, and add page numbers to the document in the format recommended by the MLA. Use The Maori History of New Zealand as the title for your sample report, use your name as the author name, and use the name of the course you are enrolled in currently as well as the instructor’s name for that course. Make sure to format the title page exactly as the MLA style dictates. e. Format the remaining text as the body of the research report. Indent the first line of each paragraph rather than use quadruple spacing between paragraphs. f. Create three sources, insert three citations in the document—a book, a journal article, and a Web site—and create a works cited page, following MLA style. If necessary, edit the format of the citations and works cited page to conform to MLA format. (Note: For this practice document, you are allowed to make up sources. Never make up sources for real research papers.) g. Save the document, submit a copy to your instructor, close the document, then exit Word.

Inser ting a Table A table is a grid made up of rows and columns of cells that you can fill with text and graphics. A cell is the box formed by the intersection of a column and a row. The lines that divide the columns and rows and help you see the grid-like structure of a table are called borders. You can create a table in a document by using the Table command in the Tables group on the Insert tab. Once you have created a table, you can add text and graphics to it. You begin by inserting a blank table and adding text to it.

1. Start Word, click the View tab, then click the Page Width button in the Zoom group 2. Click the Insert tab, then click the Table button in the Tables group The Table menu opens. It includes a grid for selecting the number of columns and rows you want the table to contain, as well as several commands for inserting a table. Table E-1 describes these commands. As you move the pointer across the grid, a preview of the table with the specified number of columns and rows appears in the document at the location of the insertion point.

3. Point to the second box in the fourth row to select 2⫻4 Table, then click A table with two columns and four rows is inserted in the document, as shown in Figure E-1. Black borders surround the table cells. The insertion point is in the first cell in the first row. TROUBLE Don’t be concerned if the paragraph spacing under the text in your table is different from that shown in the figures.

4. Type Location, then press [Tab] Pressing [Tab] moves the insertion point to the next cell in the row.

5. Type Cost, press [Tab], then type San Francisco Chronicle Pressing [Tab] at the end of a row moves the insertion point to the first cell in the next row.

6. Press [Tab], type 27,600, press [Tab], then type the following text in the table, pressing [Tab] to move from cell to cell SFGate.com 25,000 18,000 Taxi tops 7. Press [Tab] Pressing [Tab] at the end of the last cell of a table creates a new row at the bottom of the table, as shown in Figure E-2. The insertion point is located in the first cell in the new row.

TROUBLE If you pressed [Tab] after the last row, click the Undo on the button Quick Access toolbar to remove the new blank row.

Converting text to a table and a table to text Another way to create a table is to convert text that is separated by a tab, a comma, or another separator character into a table. For example, to create a two-column table of last and first names, you could type the names as a list with a comma separating the last and first name in each line, and then convert the text to a table. The separator character—a comma in this example—indicates where you want to divide the table into columns, and a paragraph mark indicates where you want to begin a new row. To convert text to a table,

select the text, click the Table button in the Tables group on the Insert tab, and then click Convert Text to Table. In the Convert Text to Table dialog box, select from the options for structuring and formatting the table, and then click OK to create the table. Conversely, you can convert a table to text that is separated by tabs, commas, or some other character by selecting the table, clicking the Table Tools Layout tab, and then clicking the Convert to Text button in the Data group.

Sor ting Table Data Tables are often easier to interpret and analyze when the data is sorted, which means the rows are organized in alphabetical or sequential order based on the data in one or more columns. When you sort a table, Word arranges all the table data according to the criteria you set. You set sort criteria by specifying the column (or columns) you want to sort by and indicating the sort order—ascending or descending—you want to use. Ascending order lists data alphabetically or sequentially (from A to Z, 0 to 9, or earliest to latest). Descending order lists data in reverse alphabetical or sequential order (from Z to A, 9 to 0, or latest to earliest). You can sort using the data in one column or multiple columns. When you sort by multiple columns you must select primary, secondary, and tertiary sort criteria. You use the Sort command in the Data group on the Table Tools Layout tab to sort a table. You sort the table so that all ads of the same type are listed together. You also add secondary sort criteria so that the ads within each type are listed in descending order by cost.

1. Place the insertion point anywhere in the table To sort an entire table, you simply need to place the insertion point anywhere in the table. If you want to sort specific rows only, then you must select the rows you want to sort.

2. Click the Sort button in the Data group on the Table Tools Layout tab The Sort dialog box opens, as shown in Figure E-10. You use this dialog box to specify the column or columns you want to sort by, the type of information you are sorting (text, numbers, or dates), and the sort order (ascending or descending). Column 1 is selected by default in the Sort by list box. Since you want to sort your table first by the information in the first column—the type of ad (Print, Web, or Misc.)—you don’t change the Sort by criteria.

3. Click the Descending option button in the Sort by section The ad type information will be sorted in descending—or reverse alphabetical—order, so that the “Web” ads will be listed first, followed by the “Print” ads, and then the “Misc.” ads.

4. Click the Then by list arrow in the first Then by section, click Column 4, click the Type list arrow, click Number if it is not already selected, then click the Descending option button Within the Web, Print, and Misc. groups, the rows will be sorted by the cost of the ad, which is the information contained in the fourth column. The rows will appear in descending order within each group, with the most expensive ad listed first. QUICK TIP To repeat the header row on every page of a table that spans multiple pages, click the Repeat Header Rows button in the Data group on the Table Tools Layout tab.

5. Click the Header row option button in the My list has section to select it The table includes a header row, which is the first row of a table that contains the column headings. You select the Header row option button when you do not want the header row included in the sort.

6. Click OK, then deselect the table The rows in the table are sorted first by the information in the Type column and second by the information in the Cost column, as shown in Figure E-11. The first row of the table, which is the header row, is not included in the sort.

Sorting lists and paragraphs In addition to sorting table data, you can use the Sort command to alphabetize text or sort numerical data. When you want to sort data that is not formatted as a table, such as lists and paragraphs, you use the Sort command in the Paragraph group on the Home tab. To sort lists and paragraphs, select the items you want included in the sort, then click the Sort button. In the Sort Text dialog box, use the Sort by list arrow to select the sort by criteria (paragraphs or fields), use the Type list arrow to select the type of data (text, numbers, or dates), and then click the Ascending or Descending option button to choose a sort order.

When sorting text information in a document, the term “fields” refers to text or numbers that are separated by a character, such as a tab or a comma. For example, you might want to sort a list of names alphabetically. If the names you want to sort are listed in “Last name, First name” order, then last name and first name are each considered a field. You can choose to sort the list in alphabetical order by last name or by first name. Use the Options button in the Sort Text dialog box to specify the character that separates the fields in your lists or paragraphs, along with other sort options.

Split ting and Merging Cells A convenient way to change the format and structure of a table is to merge and split the table cells. When you merge cells, you combine adjacent cells into a single larger cell. When you split a cell, you divide an existing cell into multiple cells. You can merge and split cells using the Merge Cells and Split Cells commands in the Merge group on the Table Tools Layout tab. You merge cells in the first column to create a single cell for each ad type—Web, Print, and Misc. You also add a new row to the bottom of the table, and split the cells in the row to create three new rows with a different structure.

1. Select the two Web cells in the first column of the table, click the Merge Cells button in the Merge group on the Table Tools Layout tab, then deselect the text The two Web cells merge to become a single cell. When you merge cells, Word converts the text in each cell into a separate paragraph in the merged cell.

2. Select the first Web in the cell, then press [Delete] 3. Select the three Print cells in the first column, click the Merge Cells button, type Print, select the two Misc. cells, click the Merge Cells button, then type Misc. The three Print cells merge to become one cell and the two Misc. cells merge to become one cell.

4. Click the Muni bus stops cell, then click the Insert Below button in the Rows & Columns group A row is added to the bottom of the table.

5. Select the first three cells in the new last row of the table, click the Merge Cells button, then deselect the cell The three cells in the row merge to become a single cell. QUICK TIP To split a table in two, click the row you want to be the first row in the second table, then click the Split Table button in the Merge group.

6. Click the first cell in the last row, then click the Split Cells button in the Merge group The Split Cells dialog box opens, as shown in Figure E-12. You use this dialog box to split the selected cell or cells into a specific number of columns and rows.

7. Type 1 in the Number of columns text box, press [Tab], type 3 in the Number of rows text box, click OK, then deselect the cells The single cell is divided into three rows of equal height. When you split a cell into multiple rows, the width of the original column does not change. When you split a cell into multiple columns, the height of the original row does not change. If the cell you split contains text, all the text appears in the upper-left cell.

8. Click the last cell in the Cost column, click the Split Cells button, repeat Step 7, then save your changes The cell is split into three rows, as shown in Figure E-13. The last three rows of the table now have only two columns.

STEPS QUICK TIP If a column or row contains blank cells, you must type a zero in any blank cell before using the SUM function.

Per for ming Calculations in Tables If your table includes numerical information, you can perform simple calculations in the table. The Formula command allows you to quickly total the numbers in a column or row, and to perform other standard calculations, such as averages. When you calculate data in a table using formulas, you use cell references to refer to the cells in the table. Each cell has a unique cell reference composed of a letter and a number; the letter represents its column and the number represents its row. For example, the cell in the third row of the fourth column is cell D3. Figure E-14 shows the cell references in a simple table. You use the Formula command to calculate the total cost of the San Francisco ad campaign. You also add information about the budgeted cost, and create a formula to calculate the difference between the total and budgeted costs.

Click the first blank cell in column 1, type Total Cost, press [Tab], then click the Formula button in the Data group on the Table Tools Layout tab The Formula dialog box opens, as shown in Figure E-15. The SUM function appears in the Formula text box followed by the reference for the cells to include in the calculation, (ABOVE). The formula =SUM(ABOVE) indicates that Word will sum the numbers in the cells above the active cell.

2. Click OK Word totals the numbers in the cells above the active cell and inserts the sum as a field. You can use the SUM function to quickly total the numbers in a column or a row. If the cell you select is at the bottom of a column of numbers, Word totals the column. If the cell is at the right end of a row of numbers, Word totals the row.

3. Select 12,000 in the cell above the total, then type 13,500 If you change a number that is part of a calculation, you must recalculate the field result. QUICK TIP To change a field result to regular text, click the field to select it, then press [Ctrl][Shift][F9].

4. Press [ ], right-click the cell, then click Update Field The information in the cell is updated. When the insertion point is in a cell that contains a formula, you can also press [F9] to update the field result.

5. Press [Tab], type Budgeted, press [Tab], type 113,780, press [Tab], type Difference, then press [Tab] The insertion point is in the last cell of the table.

6. Click the Formula button The Formula dialog box opens. Word proposes to sum the numbers above the active cell, but you want to insert a formula that calculates the difference between the total and budgeted costs. You can type simple custom formulas using a plus sign (+) for addition, a minus sign (–) for subtraction, an asterisk (*) for multiplication, and a slash (/) for division. QUICK TIP Cell references are determined by the number of columns in each row, not by the number of columns in the table. Therefore, rows 9 and 10 have only two columns.

Word 116

7. Select =SUM(ABOVE) in the Formula text box, then type =B9–B10 You must type an equal sign (=) to indicate that the text following it is a formula. You want to subtract the budgeted cost in the second column of row 10 from the total cost in the second column of row 9; therefore, you type a formula to subtract the value in cell B10 from the value in cell B9.

8. Click OK, then save your changes The difference appears in the cell, as shown in Figure E-16.

Working with formulas In addition to the SUM function, Word includes formulas for averaging, counting, and rounding data, to name a few. To use a Word formula, delete any text in the Formula text box, type =, click the Paste function list arrow in the Formula dialog box, select a function, and then insert the cell references of the cells you want to include in the calculation in parentheses after the name of the function. When entering formulas, you must separate cell references by a comma. For example, if you want to average the values in cells

A1, B3, and C4, enter the formula =AVERAGE(A1,B3,C4). You must separate cell ranges by a colon. For example, to total the values in cells A1 through A9, enter the formula =SUM(A1:A9). To display the result of a calculation in a particular number format, such as a decimal percentage (0.00%), click the Number format list arrow in the Formula dialog box and select a number format. Word inserts the result of a calculation as a field in the selected cell.

STEPS

Applying a Table St yle Adding shading and other design elements to a table can help give it a polished appearance and make the data easier to read. Word includes predefined, built-in table styles that you can apply to a table to format it quickly. Table styles include borders, shading, fonts, alignment, colors, and other formatting effects. You can apply a table style to a table using the buttons in the Table Styles group on the Table Tools Design tab. You want to enhance the appearance of the table with shading, borders, and other formats, so you apply a table style to the table. After applying a style, you change the theme colors to a more pleasing palette.

1. Click the Table Tools Design tab The Table Tools Design tab includes buttons for applying table styles and for adding, removing, and customizing borders and shading in a table. TROUBLE If your gallery of table styles does not match the figure, use the ScreenTips to help you locate the correct style.

QUICK TIP Click Clear in the gallery of table styles to remove all borders, shading, and other style elements from the table.

2. Click the More button

in the Table Styles group

The gallery of table styles opens, as shown in Figure E-17. You point to a table style in the gallery to preview the style applied to the table.

3. Move the pointer over several styles in the gallery, then click the Light Grid – Accent 4 style The Light Grid – Accent 4 style is applied to the table, as shown in Figure E-18. Because of the structure of the table, this style neither enhances the table nor helps make the data more readable.

4. Click the More button

in the Table Styles group, then click the Light List – Accent 4 style

This style works better with the structure of the table, and makes the table data easier to read. Notice that the alignment of the text in the table changed back to top left when you applied a table style.

5. In the Table Style Options group, click the First Column check box to clear it, then click the Banded Columns check box to select it The bold formatting is removed from the first column, and column borders are added to the table. When the banded columns or banded rows setting is active, the odd columns or rows are formatted differently from the even columns or rows to make the table data easier to read.

6. Click the Page Layout tab, click the Theme Colors list arrow then click Paper in the gallery that opens

in the Themes group,

The color palette for the document changes to the colors used in the Paper theme, and the table color changes to lavender.

7. Click the Table Tools Design tab, click the More button click the Light List – Accent 6 style

in the Table Styles group, then

The table color changes to blue-gray. TROUBLE When you select the Type column, the first column in the last three rows is also selected.

8. Click the Table Tools Layout tab, click the table move handle to select the table, click the Align Center Left button in the Alignment group, select the Type column, click the Align Center button in the Alignment group, select the Cost column, then click the Align Center Right button in the Alignment group First, the data in the table is left-aligned and centered vertically, then the data in the Type column is centered, and finally the data in the Cost column is right-aligned.

9. Select the last three rows of the table, click the Bold button on the Mini toolbar, then click the Align Center Right button in the Alignment group on the Table Tools Layout tab The text in the last three rows is right-aligned and bold is applied.

10. Select the first row of the table, click the Center button on the Mini toolbar, click the Font Size list arrow on the Mini toolbar, click 14, deselect the row, then save your changes The text in the header row is centered and enlarged, as shown in Figure E-19. You can also use the alignment buttons in the Paragraph group on the Home tab to change the alignment of text in a table. Word 118

Using tables to lay out a page Tables are often used to display information for quick reference and analysis, but you can also use tables to structure the layout of a page. You can insert any kind of information in the cell of a table— including graphics, bulleted lists, charts, and other tables (called nested tables). For example, you might use a table to lay out a résumé, a newsletter, or a Web page. When you use a table to lay out a page, you generally remove the table borders to hide the table structure from the reader. After you remove borders, it can be

helpful to display the table gridlines onscreen while you work. Gridlines are blue dotted lines that show the boundaries of cells, but do not print. If your document will be viewed online—for example, if you are planning to e-mail your résumé to potential employers—you should turn off the display of gridlines before you distribute the document so that it looks the same online as it looks when printed. To turn gridlines off or on, click the View Gridlines button in the Table group on the Table Tools Layout tab.

STEPS

Inser ting a Graphic You can insert graphic images, including the clip art images that come with Word, photos taken with a digital camera, scanned art, and graphics created in other graphics programs, into a Word document. To insert a graphic file into a document, you use the Picture command in the Illustrations group on the Insert tab. Once you insert a graphic, you can apply a Picture style to it to enhance its appearance. You have written and formatted the text for the Mexico flyer, and now you want to add a photograph. You insert a photo file in the document, apply a shadow to the photo, and then wrap text around it to make it a floating graphic.

1. Start Word, open the file WD F-1.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, save it as WD F-Adventure Mexico, click the Show/Hide ¶ button in the Paragraph group to display formatting marks, read the flyer to get a feel for its format and contents, then press [Ctrl][Home] The flyer is divided into five sections and includes a hard page break and several inline graphics. The second and fourth sections are formatted in three columns.

2. Click the Insert tab, then click the Picture button in the Illustrations group The Insert Picture dialog box opens. You use this dialog box to locate and insert graphic files. Most graphic files are bitmap graphics, which are often saved with a .bmp, .png, .jpg, .tif, or .gif file extension. To view all the graphic files stored in a particular location, use the File type list arrow to select All Pictures. TROUBLE If you do not see All Pictures, click the File type list arrow, then click All Pictures.

3. Verify that All Pictures appears in the File type list box, navigate to the location where you store your Data Files, click the file Beach.jpg, then click Insert The photo is inserted as an inline graphic at the location of the insertion point. When a graphic is selected, white circles and squares, called sizing handles, appear on the sides and corners of the graphic, a green rotate handle appears, and the Picture Tools Format tab appears on the Ribbon. You use this tab to size, crop, position, wrap text around, format, and adjust a graphic.

4. Click the Picture Effects button in the Picture Styles group, point to Shadow, move the pointer over the shadow styles in the gallery to preview them in the document, then click Offset Diagonal Bottom Right in the Outer section A drop shadow is applied to the photo. You can use the Picture Effects button to apply other visual effects to a graphic, such as a glow, soft edge, reflection, bevel, or 3-D rotation.

5. Click the Picture Effects button, point to Shadow, then click Shadow Options The Format Picture dialog box opens, as shown in Figure F-1. You use this dialog box to adjust the format settings applied to graphic objects.

6. Click the Distance up arrow in the Shadow pane four times until 7 pt appears, then click Close QUICK TIP Change a floating graphic to an inline graphic by changing the text-wrapping style to In Line with Text.

QUICK TIP To position a graphic anywhere on a page, you must apply text wrapping to it even if there is no text on the page.

Word 130

The distance of the shadow from the picture is increased to 7 points. Notice that as you adjust the settings in the dialog box, the change is immediately applied to the photo.

7. Click the Wrap Text button in the Arrange group, then click Tight The text wraps around the sides of the graphic, as shown in Figure F-2, making the graphic a floating object. A floating object is part of the drawing layer in a document and can be moved anywhere on a page, including in front of or behind text and other objects. Notice the anchor that appears in the upper-right corner of the photo next to the Adventure Mexico paragraph. The anchor indicates the floating graphic is anchored to the nearest paragraph so that the graphic moves with the paragraph if the paragraph is moved. The anchor symbol appears only when formatting marks are displayed.

8. Deselect the graphic, then click the Save button

on the Quick Access toolbar

Sizing handles

Correcting pictures, changing colors, and applying artistic effects The Corrections command in the Adjust group allows you to adjust a picture’s relative lightness (brightness), alter the difference between its darkest and lightest areas (contrast), and change the sharpness of an image. To make these adjustments, select the image and then click the Corrections button to open a gallery of percentages that you can preview applied to the picture. You can also fine-tune brightness, contrast, or sharpness by clicking Picture Corrections Options in the Corrections gallery, and then using the sliders in the Picture Corrections pane of the Format Picture dialog box to adjust the percentage. The Color command in the Adjust group is used to change the vividness and intensity of color in an image (color saturation), and to change the “temperature” of a photo by bringing out the cooler blue tones or the warmer orange tones (color tone). The Color command is also used to recolor a picture to give it a stylized effect, such as sepia tone, grayscale, or duotone. To make changes to the colors in a picture, select it, click the Color button, and then select one of the color modes or variations in the gallery that opens. The Artistic Effects command in the Adjust group allows you to make a photo look like a drawing, a painting, a photocopy, a sketch (see Figure F-3), or some other artistic medium. To experiment with applying an artistic effect, select a

photo, click the Artistic Effects button, and then point to each effect to preview it applied to the photo. After you edit a picture, you can undo any changes that you made by clicking the Reset Picture button in the Adjust group. This command also resets any changes you made to a picture’s size, cropping, border, and effects. FIGURE F-3: Artistic effect applied to a photograph

STEPS TROUBLE Click the View Ruler at the button top of the vertical scroll bar to display the rulers if they are not already displayed.

Sizing and Scaling a Graphic Once you insert a graphic into a document, you can change its shape or size. You can use the mouse to drag a sizing handle, you can use the Shape Width and Shape Height text boxes in the Size group on the Picture Tools Format tab to specify an exact height and width for the graphic, or you can change the scale of the graphic using the Size tab in the Layout dialog box. Resizing a graphic with the mouse allows you to see how the image looks as you modify it. Using the text boxes in the Size group or the Size tab in the Layout dialog box allows you to set precise measurements. You enlarge the photograph.

1. Click the photo to select it, place the pointer over the middle-right sizing handle, when the pointer changes to , drag to the right until the graphic is about 5" wide As you drag, the transparent image indicates the size and shape of the graphic. You can refer to the ruler to gauge the measurements as you drag. When you release the mouse button, the image is stretched to be wider. Dragging a side, top, or bottom sizing handle changes only the width or height of a graphic.

2. Click the Undo button on the Quick Access toolbar, place the pointer over the lower-right sizing handle, when the pointer changes to drag down and to the right until the graphic is about 2¾" tall and 4" wide, then release the mouse button The image is enlarged. Dragging a corner sizing handle resizes the photo proportionally so that its width and height are reduced or enlarged by the same percentage. Table F-1 describes ways to resize objects using the mouse.

QUICK TIP Deselect the Lock aspect ratio check box if you want to change a photo’s proportions.

3. Click the launcher

in the Size group

The Layout dialog box opens with the Size tab active, as shown in Figure F-4. The Size tab allows you to enter precise height and width measurements for a graphic or to scale a graphic by entering the percentage you want to reduce or enlarge it by. When a graphic is sized to scale (or scaled), its height to width ratio remains the same.

4. Select the measurement in the Height text box in the Scale section, type 130, then click the Width text box in the Scale section The scale of the width changes to 130% and the Absolute measurements in the Height and Width sections increase proportionally. When the Lock aspect ratio check box is selected, you need to enter only a height or width measurement. Word calculates the other measurement so that the resized graphic is proportional.

5. Click OK The photo is enlarged to 130% its original size.

6. Type 4.6 in the Shape Width text box in the Size group, press [Enter], then save your changes The photo is enlarged to be 4.6" wide and 3.07" tall, as shown in Figure F-5. Because the Lock aspect ratio check box is selected on the Size tab in the Layout dialog box for this graphic, the photo is sized proportionally when you adjust a setting in either the Shape Height or the Shape Width text box.

Cropping graphics If you want to use only part of a picture in a document, you can crop the graphic to trim the parts you don’t want to use. To crop a graphic, select it, then click the Crop button in the Size group on the Picture Tools Format tab. Cropping handles (solid black lines) appear on all four corners and sides of the graphic. To crop one side of a graphic, drag a side cropping handle inward to where you want to trim the graphic. To crop two adjacent sides at once, drag a corner cropping handle inward to the point where you want the corner of the cropped image to be. When you finish adjusting the

parameters of the graphic, click the Crop button again to turn off the crop feature. You can also crop a graphic to fit a shape, such as an oval, a star, a sun, or a triangle, or you can crop a graphic to conform to a certain aspect ratio, so that its height and width are proportionate to a ratio, such as 3:5. To apply one of these cropping behaviors to a graphic, select it, click the Crop list arrow in the Size group, point to Crop to Shape or to Aspect Ratio on the menu that opens, and then select the option you want.

Creating an illustration in a drawing canvas A drawing canvas is a workspace for creating your own graphics. It provides a framelike boundary between an illustration and the rest of the document so that the illustration can be sized, formatted, and positioned like a single graphic object. If you are creating an illustration that includes multiple shapes, such as a flow chart, it is helpful to create the illustration in a drawing canvas. To draw shapes or lines in a drawing canvas, click the Shapes button in the Illustrations group, click New Drawing Canvas to open a drawing canvas in the document, and then create and format your illustration in the drawing

canvas. When you are finished, right-click the drawing canvas and then click Fit to automatically resize the drawing canvas to fit the illustration. You can then resize the illustration by dragging a border of the drawing canvas. Once you have resized a drawing canvas, you can wrap text around it and position it by using commands on the Ribbon or by dragging the drawing canvas frame. By default, a drawing canvas has no border or background so that it is transparent in a document, but you can add fill and borders to it if you wish.

Independent Challenge 3 You are a graphic designer. The public library has hired you to design a bookmark for Earth Day. Their only request is that the bookmark includes the words Earth Day. You’ll create three different bookmarks for the library.

Word 2010

a. Start Word, then save a blank document as WD F-Earth Day Bookmarks to the location where you store your Data Files. b. Change all four page margins to .7", change the page orientation to landscape, and change the zoom level to Whole Page. c. Draw three text boxes.

Use clip art, WordArt or text effects, and a photograph (either a personal photograph or one you find using clip art) at least one time as you create the bookmarks. (Hints: When you insert a graphic in a text box, you cannot wrap text around it, so you must design bookmarks that use inline graphics. Alternatively, you can insert a clip art image in the document and then crop it and resize it to be the shape and size of a bookmark.) e. Format the bookmarks with fills, colors, borders, styles, shadows, and other picture effects. Be sure to add the words Earth Day to each bookmark. Advanced Challenge Exercise Adjust your bookmarks or create new ones to include the following. These features might be added individually to the bookmarks or in combinations. ■ Format a clip art image or photograph using artistic effects. ■ Fill at least one bookmark with a gradient or texture. ■ Add a photograph and remove the background. f. Type your name in the document header, save your changes, submit a copy to your instructor, close the document, then exit Word.

Real Life Independent Challenge One way to find graphic images to use in your documents is to download them from the Web. Many Web sites feature images that are in the public domain, which means they have no copyright restrictions and permission is not required to use the images. You are free to download these images and use them in your documents, although you must acknowledge the artist or identify the source. Other Web sites include images that are copyrighted and require written permission, and often payment, to use. Before downloading and using graphics from the Web, it’s important to research and establish their copyright status and permission requirements. In this exercise you download photographs from the Web and research their copyright restrictions. a. Start Word, then save a blank document as WD F-Copyright Images to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files. b. Type your name at the top of the page, press [Enter], then create a table with four rows and three columns. Type the following column headings in the header row: Photo, URL, Copyright Restrictions. You will fill this table with the photos you find on the Web and the copyright restrictions for those photos. c. Use your favorite search engine to search the Web for photographs that you might use for your work or a personal project. Use the keywords free photo archives or free public domain photos. You can also add a keyword that describes the subject of the photos you want to find. d. Find at least three Web sites that contain photos you could use in a document. Save a photo from each Web site to your computer, and note the URL and copyright restrictions. To save an image from a Web page, right-click the image, then click the appropriate command on the shortcut menu. e. Insert the photos you saved from the Web in the Photo column of the table. Resize the photos proportionally so that they are about 1.5" tall or 1.5" wide. Wrap text around the photos, and center them in the table cells. f. Enter the URL in column 2 and the copyright restrictions for the photos in column 3. In the Copyright Restrictions column, indicate if the photo is copyrighted or in the public domain, and note the requirements for using that photo in a document. g. Adjust the formatting of the table so it is easy to read, save your changes, submit a copy to your instructor, close the file, then exit Word.

STEPS

Applying Quick St yles to Text Applying a style to text allows you to apply multiple format settings to text in one easy step. A style is a set of format settings, such as font, font size, font color, paragraph spacing, and alignment, that are named and stored together. Word includes many Quick Style sets—groups of related styles that share common fonts, colors, and formats, and are designed to be used together in a document—that you can use to give your documents a polished and cohesive look. Each Quick Style set includes styles for a title, subtitle, headings, body text, lists, quotes, and other text elements. You apply styles to the tour summary report to help organize the text attractively and make the report easy to read at a glance.

1. Start Word, open the file WD G-1.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, save it as WD G-Mount Kenya Tour, scroll the document to get a feel for its contents, then press [Ctrl][Home] The four-page document includes text, photographs, and a chart. QUICK TIP To change the active Quick Style set, click the Change Styles button in the Styles group, point to Style Set, then click a new set.

4. Select 15 days/14 nights, Nairobi to Mombasa, click Subtitle in the Styles group, click the in the Font group, then click Olive Green, Accent 3, Darker 25% Font Color list arrow The Subtitle style is applied to the paragraph under the title, and then the font color is changed to olive green. You can modify the format of text to which a style has been applied without changing the style itself.

QUICK TIP To change the color scheme or fonts used in the active Quick Style set, click the Change Styles button, point to Colors or Fonts, and then select from the options.

5. Select Tour Highlights, click the More button deselect the text

in the Styles group, click Heading 1, then

Saving a document as a Web page Creating a Web page and posting it on the Internet or an intranet is a powerful way to share information with other people. You can design a Web page from scratch in Word, or you can use the Save As command to save an existing document in HTML format so it can be viewed with a browser. When you save an existing document as a Web page, Word converts the content and formatting of the Word file to HTML and displays the Web page in Web Layout view, which shows the Web page as it will appear in a browser. Any formatting that is not supported by Web browsers is either converted to similar supported formatting or removed from the Web page. For example, if you save a document that contains a floating graphic in HTML format, the graphic will be left- or right-aligned on the Web page. In a document you plan to save as a Web page, it’s best to create a table in the document, and then insert text and graphics in the table cells in order to be able to position text and graphics precisely.

To save a document as a Web page, open the Save As dialog box, and then select a Web page format in the Save as type list box. You have the option of saving the document in Single File Web Page (.mht or .mhtml) format or in Web Page (.htm or .html) format. In a single file Web page, all the elements of the Web page, including the text and graphics, are saved together in a single MIME encapsulated aggregate HTML (MHTML) file, making it simple to publish your Web page or send it via e-mail. By contrast, if you choose to save a Web page as an .htm file, Word automatically creates a supporting folder in the same location as the .htm file. This folder has the same name as the .htm file plus the suffix _files, and it houses the supporting files associated with the Web page, such as graphics.

STEPS

Applying a Theme Changing the theme applied to a document is another quick way to set the tone of a document and give it a polished and cohesive appearance, particularly if the text and any tables, charts, shapes, SmartArt objects, or text boxes in the document are formatted with styles. A theme is a set of unified design elements, including theme colors, theme fonts for body text and headings, and theme effects for graphics. By default, all documents that you create in Word are formatted with the Office theme, but you can easily apply a different built-in theme to a document. To apply a theme to a document, you use the Themes command in the Themes group on the Page Layout tab. You experiment with different built-in themes and then apply a theme that more closely suits the message you want to convey with the tour summary report.

1. Press [Ctrl][Home], click the Page Layout tab, click the Themes button in the Themes group, then point to Austin A gallery of built-in Themes opens. When you point to the Austin theme in the gallery, a preview of the theme is applied to the document, as shown in Figure G-3.

2. Move the pointer over each theme in the gallery When you point to a theme in the gallery, a preview of the theme is applied to the document. Notice that the font colors and the fonts for the body text and headings to which a style has been applied change when you preview each theme.

3. Click Oriel, then scroll down to view the theme applied to each page in the document A complete set of new theme colors, fonts, styles, and effects is applied to the document. Notice that while the font of the body text changed, the bold formatting applied to the text under the Tour Highlights heading at the top of page 1 remains. Changing the document theme does not affect the formatting of text to which font formatting has been applied. Only document content that uses theme colors, text that is formatted with a style (including default body text), and table styles and graphic effects change when a new theme is applied. QUICK TIP To restore the document to the default theme for the template on which the document is based, click the Themes button, and then click Reset to Theme from Template.

4. Click the View tab, click the Two Pages button in the Zoom group, then scroll down to see pages 3 and 4 The fill effect in the chart at the bottom of the last page is changed to a fill effect from the Oriel theme, as shown in Figure G-4.

5. Click the Page Layout tab, click the Themes button, then point to each built-in theme in the gallery Notice how each theme affects the formatting of the chart, and, in some cases, the pagination of the document. It’s important to choose a theme that not only mirrors the tone, content, and purpose of your document, but also meets your goal for document length.

6. Click Median The Median theme is applied to the document.

7. Click the View tab, click the 100% button in the Zoom group, press [Ctrl][Home], then save your changes After applying the new theme, the document is now three pages long.

Changing the default theme By default, all new documents created in Word are formatted with the Office theme, but you can change your settings to use a different theme as the default. To change the default theme to a different built-in or custom theme, press [Ctrl][N] to open a new blank document, click the Themes button in the Themes group on the Page Layout tab, and then click the theme you want to use as the default. If you want to customize the theme before saving it as the new default, use the Theme Colors, Theme Fonts, and Theme Effects

buttons in the Themes group to customize the settings for theme colors, fonts, and effects. Alternatively, click the Change Styles button in the Styles group on the Home tab, and then use the Style Set, Colors, and Fonts options to select a new style set, new colors, or new fonts to use in the new default theme. When you are satisfied with the settings for the new default theme, click the Change Styles button again, and then click Set as Default. The Themes gallery will be updated to reflect your changes.

Inser ting a Sidebar Another way to design a document quickly and professionally is to use preformatted building blocks. Building blocks are the reusable pieces of formatted content or document parts that are stored in galleries, including headers and footers, cover pages, and text boxes. Sidebars and pull quotes are two types of text box building blocks that are frequently used to jazz up the appearance of a text-heavy page and to highlight information. A sidebar is a text box that is positioned adjacent to the body of a document and contains auxiliary information. A pull quote is a text box that contains a quote or excerpt from an article, formatted in a larger font size and placed on the same page. You use the Text Box command on the Insert tab to insert sidebars and pull quotes. You create a sidebar to display the Tour Highlights information on page 1 and a second sidebar to display information for travelers to Kenya on page 2.

Creating Building Blocks When you design a piece of content that you want to use again in other documents, you can save it as a building block in one of the Word galleries. For example, you might want to save your company mission statement or a list of staff names so that you don’t have to type and format the information each time you use it in a document. You save an item as a building block using the Quick Parts command. You save the QST logo, the Kenya Travel Information sidebar, the Climate heading and paragraph, and the footer as building blocks so that you can easily include them in other tour reports.

DETAILS

Understanding Mail Merge When you perform a mail merge, you merge a standard Word document with a file that contains customized information for many individuals or items. The standard document is called the main document. The file with the unique data for individual people or items is called the data source. Merging the main document with a data source results in a merged document that contains customized versions of the main document, as shown in Figure H-1. The Mail Merge task pane steps you through the process of setting up and performing a mail merge. You can also perform a mail merge using the commands on the Mailings tab. You decide to use the Mail Merge task pane to create your form letters and the commands on the Mailings tab to create your mailing labels. Before beginning, you explore the steps involved in performing a mail merge.

• Create the main document The main document contains the text—often called boilerplate text—that appears in every version of the merged document. The main document also includes the merge fields, which indicate where the customized information is inserted when you perform the merge. You insert the merge fields in the main document after you have created or selected the data source. You can create a main document using either the current document, a template, or an existing document.

• Create a data source or select an existing data source The data source is a file that contains the unique information for each individual or item, such as a person’s name. It provides the information that varies in every version of the merged document. A data source is composed of data fields and data records. A data field is a category of information, such as last name, first name, street address, city, or postal code. A data record is a complete set of related information for an individual or an item, such as one person’s name and address. It is easiest to think of a data source file as a table: the header row contains the names of the data fields (the field names), and each row in the table is an individual data record. You can create a new data source, or you can use an existing data source, such as a data source created in Word, an Outlook contact list, an Access database, or an Excel worksheet.

• Identify the fields to include in the data source and enter the records When you create a new data source, you must first identify the fields to include, such as first name, last name, and street address if you are creating a data source that will include addresses. It is also important to think of and include all the fields you will need (not just the obvious ones) before you begin to enter data. For example, if you are creating a data source that includes names and addresses, you might need to include fields for a person’s middle name, title, apartment number, department name, or country, even if some records in the data source will not include that information. Once you have identified the fields and set up your data source, you are ready to enter the data for each record.

• Add merge fields to the main document A merge field is a placeholder that you insert in the main document to indicate where the data from each record should be inserted when you perform the merge. For example, you insert a zip code merge field in the location where you want to insert a zip code. The merge fields in a main document must correspond with the field names in the associated data source. Merge fields must be inserted, not typed, in the main document. The Mail Merge task pane and the Mailings tab provide access to the dialog boxes you use to insert merge fields.

• Merge the data from the data source into the main document Once you have established your data source and inserted the merge fields in the main document, you are ready to perform the merge. You can merge to a new file, which contains a customized version of the main document for each record in the data source, or you can merge directly to a printer or e-mail message.

STEPS TROUBLE A document, blank or otherwise, must be open in the program window for the commands on the Mailings tab to be available.

Creating a Main Document The first step in performing a mail merge is to create the main document—the file that contains the boilerplate text. You can create a main document from scratch, save an existing document as a main document, or use a mail merge template to create a main document. The Mail Merge task pane walks you through the process of selecting the type of main document to create. You use an existing form letter for your main document. You begin by opening the Mail Merge task pane.

1. Start Word, click the Mailings tab, click the Start Mail Merge button in the Start Mail Merge group, then click Step by Step Mail Merge Wizard The Mail Merge task pane opens, as shown in Figure H-2, and displays information for the first step in the mail merge process: Select document type (the type of merge document to create).

2. Make sure the Letters option button is selected, then click Next: Starting document to continue with the next step The task pane displays the options for the second step: Select starting document (the main document). You can use the current document, start with a mail merge template, or use an existing file.

QUICK TIP If you choose “Use the current document” and the current document is blank, you can create a main document from scratch. Either type the boilerplate text at this step, or wait until the task pane prompts you to do so.

3. Select the Start from existing document option button, make sure (More files...) is selected in the Start from existing list box, then click Open The Open dialog box opens.

4. Navigate to the location where you store your Data Files, select the file WD H-1.docx, then click Open The letter that opens contains the boilerplate text for the main document. Notice the filename in the title bar is Document1. When you create a main document that is based on an existing document, Word gives the main document a default temporary filename.

5. Click the Save button on the Quick Access toolbar, then save the main document with the filename WD H-Deposit Letter Main to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files It’s a good idea to include “main” in the filename so that you can easily recognize the file as a main document.

6. Click the Zoom level button on the status bar, click the 100% option button, click OK, select October 9, 2013 in the letter, type today’s date, scroll down, select Ron Dawson, type your name, press [Ctrl][Home], then save your changes The edited main document is shown in Figure H-3.

7. Click Next: Select recipients to continue with the next step You continue with Step 3 of 6 in the next lesson.

Using a mail merge template If you are creating letters or faxes, you can use a mail merge template to start your main document. Each template includes boilerplate text, which you can customize, and merge fields, which you can match to the field names in your data source. To create a main document that is based on a mail merge template, click the Start from a template option button in the Step 2 of 6 Mail Merge task pane, and then click Select template. In the Select Template dialog box, select a template from the Letters or Faxes tab that includes the word “Merge” in its name, and then click OK to create the document. Once you have created the main document, you can

Word 180

customize it with your own information: edit the boilerplate text; change the document format; or add, remove, or modify the merge fields. Before performing the merge, make sure to match the names of the merge fields used in the template with the field names used in your data source. To match the field names, click the Match Fields button in the Write & Insert Fields group on the Mailings tab, and then use the list arrows in the Match Fields dialog box to select the field name in your data source that corresponds to each address field component in the main document.

STEPS

Designing a Data Source Once you have identified the main document, the next step in the mail merge process is to identify the data source, the file that contains the information that is used to customize each version of the merge document. You can use an existing data source that already contains the records you want to include in your merge, or you can create a new data source. When you create a new data source you must determine the fields to include—the categories of information, such as a first name, last name, city, or zip code—and then add the records. You create a new data source that includes fields for the client name, client address, and tour booked by the client.

1. Make sure Step 3 of 6 is displayed at the bottom of the Mail Merge task pane Step 3 of 6 involves selecting a data source to use for the merge. You can use an existing data source, use a list of contacts created in Microsoft Outlook, or create a new data source.

2. Select the Type a new list option button, then click Create The New Address List dialog box opens, as shown in Figure H-4. You use this dialog box both to design your data source and to enter records. The column headings in the Type recipient information... section of the dialog box are fields that are commonly used in form letters, but you can customize your data source by adding and removing columns (fields) from this table. A data source can be merged with more than one main document, so it’s important to design a data source to be flexible. The more fields you include in a data source, the more flexible it is. For example, if you include separate fields for a person’s title, first name, middle name, and last name, you can use the same data source to create an envelope addressed to “Mr. John Montgomery Smith” and a form letter with the greeting “Dear John.”

3. Click Customize Columns The Customize Address List dialog box opens. You use this dialog box to add, delete, rename, and reorder the fields in the data source.

4. Click Company Name in the list of field names, click Delete, then click Yes in the warning dialog box that opens Company Name is removed from the list of field names. The Company Name field is no longer a part of the data source.

5. Repeat Step 4 to delete the following fields: Address Line 2, Home Phone, Work Phone, and E-mail Address The fields are removed from the data source.

6. Click Add, type Tour in the Add Field dialog box, then click OK A field called “Tour,” which you will use to indicate the name of the tour booked by the client, is added to the data source.

7. Make sure Tour is selected in the list of field names, then click Move Up eight times or until Tour is at the top of the list The field name “Tour” is moved to the top of the list, as shown in Figure H-5. Although the order of field names does not matter in a data source, it’s convenient to arrange the field names logically to make it easier to enter and edit records.

8. Click OK The New Address List dialog box shows the customized list of fields, with the Tour field first in the list. The next step is to enter each record you want to include in the data source. You add records to the data source in the next lesson.

STEPS

Adding Merge Fields After you have created and identified the data source, the next step is to insert the merge fields in the main document. Merge fields serve as placeholders for text that is inserted when the main document and the data source are merged. The names of merge fields correspond to the field names in the data source. You can insert merge fields using the Mail Merge task pane or the Address Block, Greeting Line, and Insert Merge Field buttons in the Write & Insert Fields group on the Mailings tab. You cannot type merge fields into the main document. You use the Mail Merge task pane to insert merge fields for the inside address and greeting of the letter. You also insert a merge field for the tour destination in the body of the letter.

1. Click Next: Write your letter in the Mail Merge task pane The Mail Merge task pane shows the options for Step 4 of 6: Write your letter. During this step, you write or edit the boilerplate text and insert the merge fields in the main document. Since your form letter is already written, you are ready to add the merge fields to it.

STEPS QUICK TIP To adjust the main document, click the Preview Results button in the Preview Results group on the Mailings tab, then make any necessary changes. Click the Preview Results button again to preview the merged data.

Merging Data Once you have added records to your data source and inserted merge fields in the main document, you are ready to perform the merge. Before merging, it’s a good idea to preview the merged data to make sure the printed documents will appear as you want them to. You can preview the merge using the task pane or the Preview Results button in the Preview Results group on the Mailings tab. When you merge the main document with the data source, you must choose between merging to a new file or directly to a printer. Before merging the form letter with the data source, you preview the merge to make sure the data appears in the letter as you intended. You then merge the two files to a new document.

1. Click Next: Preview your letters in the Mail Merge task pane, then scroll down as necessary to see the tour name in the document The data from the first record in the data source appears in place of the merge fields in the main document, as shown in Figure H-11. Always preview a document to verify that the merge fields, punctuation, page breaks, and spacing all appear as you intend before you perform the merge.

2. Click the Next Recipient button

in the Mail Merge task pane

The data from the second record in the data source appears in place of the merge fields.

3. Click the Go to Record text box in the Preview Results group on the Mailings tab, type 4, then press [Enter] The data for the fourth record appears in the document window. The non-U.S. country name, in this case Canada, is included in the address block, just as you specified. You can also use the First Record , Previous Record , Next Record , and Last Record buttons in the Preview Results group to preview the merged data. Table H-1 describes other commands on the Mailings tab.

QUICK TIP If your data source contains many records, you can merge directly to a printer to avoid creating a large file.

4. Click Next: Complete the merge in the Mail Merge task pane The options for Step 6 of 6 appear in the Mail Merge task pane. Merging to a new file creates a document with one letter for each record in the data source. This allows you to edit the individual letters.

5. Click Edit individual letters to merge the data to a new document The Merge to New Document dialog box opens. You can use this dialog box to specify the records to include in the merge.

6. Make sure the All option button is selected, then click OK The main document and the data source are merged to a new document called Letters1, which contains a customized form letter for each record in the data source. You can now further personalize the letters without affecting the main document or the data source.

7. Scroll to the fourth letter (addressed to Ms. Jane Miller), place the insertion point before V6F in the address block, then press [Enter] The postal code is now consistent with the proper format for a Canadian address.

8. Click the Save button on the Quick Access toolbar to open the Save As dialog box, then save the merged document as WD H-Deposit Letter Merge to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files You may decide not to save a merged file if your data source is large. Once you have created the main document and the data source, you can create the letters by performing the merge again. TROUBLE Print only one letter if you are required to submit a printed document to your instructor.

STEPS

Sor ting and Filtering Records If you are using a large data source, you might want to sort and/or filter the records before performing a merge. Sorting the records determines the order in which the records are merged. For example, you might want to sort an address data source so that records are merged alphabetically by last name or in zip code order. Filtering the records pulls out the records that meet specific criteria and includes only those records in the merge. For instance, you might want to filter a data source to send a mailing only to people who live in the state of New York. You can use the Mail Merge Recipients dialog box both to sort and to filter a data source. You apply a filter to the data source so that only United States addresses are included in the merge. You then sort those records so that they merge in zip code order.

1. Click the Edit Recipient List button in the Start Mail Merge group The Mail Merge Recipients dialog box opens and displays all the records in the data source.

2. Scroll right to display the Country field, then click the Country column heading The records are sorted in ascending alphabetical order by country, with Canadian records listed first. If you want to reverse the sort order, you can click the column heading again.

3. Click the Country column heading list arrow, then click US on the menu that opens A filter is applied to the data source so that only the records with “US” in the Country field will be merged. The grayish-blue arrow in the Country column heading indicates that a filter has been applied to the column. You can filter a data source by as many criteria as you like. To remove a filter, click a column heading list arrow, then click (All). QUICK TIP Use the options on the Filter tab to apply more than one filter to the data source.

4. Click Sort in the Refine recipient list section of the dialog box The Filter and Sort dialog box opens with the Sort Records tab displayed. You can use this dialog box to apply more advanced sort and filter options to the data source.

5. Click the Sort by list arrow, click ZIP Code, click the first Then by list arrow, click Last Name, then click OK The Mail Merge Recipients dialog box (shown in Figure H-15) now displays only the records with a US address sorted first in zip code order, and then alphabetically by last name.

QUICK TIP Sorting and filtering a data source does not alter the records in a data source; it simply reorganizes the records for the current merge only.

6. Click OK The sort and filter criteria you set are saved for the current merge.

7. Click the Address Block button in the Write & Insert Fields group, then click OK in the Insert Address Block dialog box The Address Block merge field is added to the first label.

8. Click the Update Labels button in the Write & Insert Fields group The merge field is copied from the first label to every label in the main document.

Real Life Independent Challenge Mail merge can be used not only for mailings, but to create CD/DVD labels, labels for file folders, phone directories, business cards, and many other types of documents. In this independent challenge, you design and create a data source that you can use at work or in your personal life, and then you merge the data source with a main document that you create. Your data source might include contact information for your friends and associates, inventory for your business, details for an event such as a wedding (guests invited, responses, gifts received), data on one of your collections (such as music or photos), or some other type of information. a. Determine the content of your data source, list the fields you want to include, and then determine the logical order of the fields. Be sure to select your fields carefully so that your data source is flexible and can be merged with many types of documents. Generally it is better to include more fields, even if you don’t enter data in them for each record. b. Start Word, start a mail merge for the type of document you want to create (such as a directory or a label), then create a new data source. c. Customize the columns in the data source to include the fields and organization you determined in Step a. d. Add at least five records to the data source, then save it as WD H-Your Name Data to the location where you store your Data Files. e. Write and format the main document, insert the merge fields, preview the merge, make any necessary adjustments, then merge the files to a document. f. Adjust the formatting of the merge document as necessary, add your name to the header, save the merge document as WD H-Your Name Merge to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, submit a copy to your instructor, close the file, close the main document without saving changes, then exit Word.

Generating a Table of Contents Readers refer to a table of contents to obtain an overview of the topics and subtopics covered in a multipage document. When you generate a table of contents, Word searches for headings, sorts them by heading levels, and then displays the completed table of contents in the document. By default, a table of contents lists the top three heading levels in a document. Consequently, before you create a table of contents, you must ensure that all headings and subheadings are formatted with the heading styles such as Heading 1, Heading 2, and Heading 3. When you work in Outline view, the correct heading styles are assigned automatically to text based on the outline level of the text. For example, the Heading 1 style is applied to Level 1 text, the Heading 2 style to Level 2 text, and so on. You are pleased with the content of the document and are now ready to create a new page that includes a table of contents. You use commands on the References tab to generate a table of contents.

STEPS 1. Click the Home tab, press [Ctrl][Home], press [Ctrl][Enter], press the [ ] once, type Table of Contents, select the title, then center it and enhance it with bold and the 18 pt font size 2. Click after Contents in the Table of Contents title, press [Enter] once, then click the Clear Formatting button in the Font group The insertion point is positioned at the left margin where the table of contents will begin.

3. Click the References tab, then click the Table of Contents button in the Table of Contents group A gallery of predefined, built-in styles for a table of contents opens.

4. Click Insert Table of Contents to open the Table of Contents dialog box, click the Formats list arrow, click Formal, compare the dialog box to Figure I-7, then click OK A table of contents that includes all the Level 1, 2, and 3 headings appears.

5. Click the View tab, click the Navigation Pane check box to open the Navigation pane, click the Browse the headings in your document button at the top of the Navigation pane, right-click the Presentation Management subheading below the Branch Management subheading in the Personnel section, then click Delete The Presentation Management subheading and its related subtext are deleted from the document.

6. Close the Navigation pane, press [Ctrl][Home], then note that the Presentation Management subheading still appears in the table of contents below the Branch Management subheading in the Personnel section 7. Click Introduction to select the entire table of contents at once When the table of contents is selected, you can update it to show changes.

8. Right-click the table of contents, click Update Field, click Table in the Table of Contents title to deselect the table of contents, then scroll down so you can see the entire table of contents in the document window The Presentation Management subheading is removed, and the completed table of contents appears, as shown in Figure I-8.

An index can include main entries, subentries, and cross-references. To help readers quickly find main concepts in the document, you decide to generate an index. You get started by marking the terms that you want to include as main entries in the index.

STEPS QUICK TIP If the dialog box blocks text that you want to see, use the dialog box title bar to drag the dialog box to a new location.

QUICK TIP Because you clicked Mark All, all instances of the term branch staff are marked as index entries.

1. Press [Ctrl][Home], press [Ctrl], then click Introduction in the table of contents The insertion point moves to the Introduction heading in the document.

Press [Ctrl][F] to open the Navigation pane, type branch staff in the Search Document text box, select branch staff under the Personnel heading in the document, click the References tab, then click the Mark Entry button in the Index group The Mark Index Entry dialog box opens, as shown in Figure I-9. By default, the selected text is entered in the Main entry text box and is treated as a main entry in the index.

3. Click Mark All Notice the term branch staff is marked with the XE field code. XE stands for Index Entry. When you mark an entry for the index, the paragraph marks are turned on automatically so that you can see hidden codes such as paragraph marks, field codes, page breaks, and section breaks. These codes do not appear in the printed document. The Mark Index Entry dialog box remains open so that you can continue to mark text for inclusion in the index.

4. Click anywhere in the document to deselect the current index entry, then type branch manager in the Search Document text box in the Navigation pane 5. Click the first instance of branch manager in the Navigation pane, then click the title bar of the Mark Index Entry dialog box The text branch manager appears in the Main entry text box in the Mark Index Entry dialog box.

6. Click Mark All All instances of branch manager in the document are marked for inclusion in the index.

TROUBLE Make sure you click in the document to deselect the currently selected text before you enter another search term.

7. Click anywhere in the document, type theme in the Search Document text box, click the title bar of the Mark Index Entry dialog box, then click Mark All 8. Follow the procedure in Step 7 to find and mark all instances of the following main entries: tour guides, venues, target market, and Ron Dawson Notice that even though avenues is included in the search results for venues, only the one instance of venues is marked as an index entry.

9. Close the Mark Index Entry dialog box, close the Navigation pane, then scroll up until you see the document title (Tour Presentation Guidelines) at the top of the page You see three entries marked for the index, as shown in Figure I-10. The other entries you marked are further down the document.

Generating an Index In addition to main entries, an index often includes subentries and cross-references. A subentry is text included under a main entry. For example, you could mark the text “shopping cart” as a subentry to appear under the main entry “Web site.” A cross-reference in an index refers the reader to another entry in the index. For example, a cross-reference in an index might read, “lecture. See events.” Readers then know to refer to the “events” entry to find out more about lectures. Once you have marked all the index entries, you select a design for the index, and then you generate it. If you make changes to the document, you can update the index just like you update a table of contents when you add or remove content. You mark one subentry and one cross-reference for the index, create a new last page in the document, and then generate the index. You add one new main entry, and then update the index to reflect this change. The completed index contains all the main entries, the subentry, and the cross-reference you marked in this lesson and the previous lesson.

STEPS 1. Press [Ctrl][F] to open the Navigation pane, type shopping cart in the Search Document text box, then click Mark Entry in the Index group on the References tab The Mark Index Entry dialog box opens. The search term “shopping cart” is already entered into the Mark Index Entry dialog box.

2. Select shopping cart in the Main entry text box, type Web site, click in the Subentry text box, type shopping cart in the Subentry text box as shown in Figure I-11, then click Mark The first and only instance of the text “shopping cart” is marked as a subentry to appear following the Main entry, Web site. You use the Mark option when you want to mark just one occurrence of an item in a document.

3. Click anywhere in the document, type laptops in the Search Document text box, click the Cross-reference option button in the Mark Index Entry dialog box, click after See, type bookings as shown in Figure I-12, then click Mark You need to also mark “bookings” so the Index lists the page number for bookings. QUICK TIP You can also click the term bookings in the phrase bookings on the spot in the Navigation pane to go directly to the term bookings in the document.

4. Click anywhere in the document, type bookings in the Search Document text box, double-click bookings in the phrase bookings on the spot (end of the paragraph containing the cross-reference to laptops), click the Mark Index Entry dialog box, then click Mark The term laptops is now cross-referenced to the term bookings in the same paragraph.

5. Click Close to close the Mark Index Entry dialog box, then close the Navigation pane Now that you have marked entries for the index, you can generate the index at the end of the document.

6. Press [Ctrl][End], press [Ctrl][Enter], type Index, press [Enter], click the Home tab, select Index and apply 18 pt, bold, and center alignment formatting, then click below Index 7. Click the References tab, click Insert Index in the Index group, click the Formats list arrow in the Index dialog box, scroll down the list, click Formal, then click OK Word has collected all the index entries, sorted them alphabetically, included the appropriate page numbers, and removed duplicate entries.

8. Press [Ctrl][F], type refreshments, click the second instance of refreshments in the search results in the Navigation pane, click the Mark Entry button in the Index Group, then click Mark All Each instance of refreshments from the currently selected text to the end of the document is now included in the index. The refreshments entry that appears in the table of contents is not included because it appears before the entry you selected.

9. Close the dialog box and Navigation pane, scroll to the end of the document, right-click the index, click Update Field, click Index to deselect the index, then save the document The updated index appears as shown in Figure I-13. Word 212

Inser ting Footers in Multiple Sections Multipage documents often consist of two or more sections that you can format differently. For example, you can include different text in the footer for each section, and you can change how page numbers are formatted from section to section. You want to divide the report into two sections, and then format the headers and footers differently in each section. The diagram in Figure I-14 explains how the footer should appear on each of the first three pages in the document.

STEPS QUICK TIP You can also turn paragraph marks on or off by clicking the Show/Hide butin the ton Paragraph group on the Home tab.

1. Press [Ctrl][Home] to move to the top of the document, scroll to the page break, click to the left of it, click the Page Layout tab, then click Breaks in the Page Setup group You can see the page break because the paragraph marks were turned on when you marked entries for inclusion in the index. When you work with sections, you should leave paragraph marks showing so you can see the codes that Word inserts for section breaks and page breaks.

2. Click Next Page under Section Breaks, press [Delete] to remove the original page break, then press [Delete] to remove the extra blank line The document is divided into two sections. Section 1 contains the Table of Contents, and section 2 contains the rest of the document.

3. Press [Ctrl][Home], click the Insert tab, click the Footer button in the Header & Footer group, then click Blank (Three Columns) The footer area opens showing the Blank (Three Columns) format.

4. Click to the left of the placeholder text to select all three items, press [Delete], press [Tab] once, type Page, press [Spacebar], click the Page Number button in the Header & Footer group, point to Current Position, then click Plain Number (the top selection) The current footer for the entire document contains the word Page and a page number.

5. Click the Page Number button, click Format Page Numbers, click the Number format list arrow, click i, ii, iii, then click OK The page number in the footer area of the table of contents page is formatted as i.

6. Click Next in the Navigation group, then click the Link to Previous button in the Navigation group to deselect it You deselect the Link to Previous button to make sure that the text you type into the footer appears only in the footer in section 2. You must deselect the Link to Previous button each time you want the header or footer in a section to be unique.

7. Type your name, then press [Tab] once to move Page 2 to the right margin By default, Word continues numbering the pages in section 2 based on the page numbers in section 1. The footer in section 2 starts with Page 2 because section 1 contains just one page. You want section 2 to start with Page 1 because the first page in section 2 is the first page of the report. Note also that the i, ii, iii format is not applied to the page number in section 2. Changes to page number formatting apply only to the section in which the change is made originally (in this case, section 1).

8. Click the Page Number button, click Format Page Numbers, click the Start at option button, verify that 1 appears, click OK, then compare the footer to Figure I-15 9. Click the Close Header and Footer button, then save the document

Understanding headers, footers, and sections One reason you divide a document into sections is so that you can modify the page layout and the headers and footers differently in different sections. You can even modify the header and footer within a section because each section has two parts. The first part of a section is the first page, and the second part of the section is the remaining subsequent pages. This section structure allows you to omit the header on the first page of section 2, and then include the header on all subsequent pages in section 2. To do this, you place the insertion

point in the section you want to modify, then you click the Different First Page check box in the Options group to specify that you wish to include a different header (or no header at all) on the first page of a section. In addition, you can also choose to format odd and even pages in a document in different ways by clicking the Different Odd & Even Pages check box in the Options group. For example, you can choose to left-align the document title on odd-numbered pages and right-align the chapter indicator on even-numbered pages.

Finalizing a Multipage Document With Word, you can create long documents consisting of multiple sections and then complete the document by customizing the table of contents. By default, a table of contents shows only headings formatted with the Heading 1, Heading 2, or Heading 3 styles (Levels 1, 2, and 3 in Outline view). You can customize a table of contents so it includes headings formatted with other styles, such as the Title style or a style you create yourself. You copy and paste new text into the current document, and then you modify the headers and footers and customize the table of contents.

DETAILS

Exploring St yles and Templates You use styles and templates to automate document-formatting tasks and to ensure consistency among related documents. A style consists of various formats such as font, font size, and alignment that you name and then save together as one set. For example, a style called Main Head might contain the following format settings: Arial font, 14-point font size, bold, and a bottom border. Each time you apply the Main Head style to selected text, all format settings included in the style are applied. A template is a file that contains the basic structure of a document, such as the page layout, headers and footers, styles, graphic elements, and boilerplate text. You plan to use styles to format a tour guide profile and then create a template that you will use to develop a series of tour guide profiles. You start by familiarizing yourself with styles and templates.

Information about how you can use styles and templates to help you format documents quickly and efficiently follows:

Word 230

•

Using styles helps you save time in two ways. First, when you apply a style, you apply a set of formats all at once. You do not have to apply each format individually. Second, if you modify a style by changing one or more of the formats associated with that style, then all text formatted with that style is updated automatically. For example, suppose you apply a style named “Section Head” to each section head in a document. If you then modify the formatting associated with the Section Head style, Word automatically updates all the text formatted with the Section Head style to reflect the change. As discussed in Unit I, default heading styles are applied automatically to headings and subheadings when you work in Outline view to create the structure of a document. For example, the Heading 1 style is applied to text associated with Level 1, the Heading 2 style is applied to text associated with Level 2, and so on. You can modify a default heading style or you can create a new heading style.

•

In Word, you can choose from 13 predefined Quick Style sets or you can create your own Quick Style set. Each Quick Style set contains Quick Styles, or simply styles, for a wide range of text elements such as headings, titles, subtitles, and lists. All of the styles associated with a Quick Style set are stored in the Styles gallery. Figure J-1 shows the list of predefined Quick Style sets, part of the Styles gallery, and styles in the Word 2010 Quick Style set applied to the document.

•

Word includes five major style categories. A paragraph style includes font formats, such as font and font size, and paragraph formats, such as line spacing or tabs. You use a paragraph style when you want to format all the text in a paragraph at once. A character style includes character formats only, such as font, font size, and font color. You use a character style to apply character format settings only to selected text within a paragraph. A linked style applies either a character style or a paragraph style, depending on whether you click in a paragraph to select the entire paragraph or you select specific text. A table style specifies how you want both the table grid and the text in a table to appear. A list style allows you to format a series of lines with numbers or bullets and with selected font and paragraph formats. Figure J-2 shows a document formatted with the five style types. These styles have been saved in a new Quick Style set called QST Profiles.

•

Every document you create in Word is based on a template. Most of the time, this template is the Normal template because the Normal template is loaded automatically when you start a new document. The styles assigned to the Normal template, such as Normal, Title, Heading 1, Heading 2, and so on, are the styles you see in the Styles gallery when you open a new document.

•

Word includes a number of predesigned templates. In addition, you can access a variety of templates online. You can also create a template that includes a custom Quick Style set. Finally, you can attach a template to an existing document and then apply the styles included with the template to text in the document.

Understanding the Normal style Text that you type into a blank document is formatted with the Normal style from the Word 2010 Quick Style set until you specify otherwise. By default, text formatted with the Normal style uses the 11-point Calibri font and is left-aligned, with a line spacing of 1.15

within a paragraph and 10 pt After Paragraph spacing. When you select a new Quick Style set, the styles associated with that Quick Style set are applied to the document.

Modif ying Predefined St yles Word 2010 includes 13 predefined Quick Style sets that you can apply directly to text in your document. Each Quick Style set has styles associated with it. Frequently used styles include the Normal, Title, Heading 1, and Heading 2 styles. The Normal style is applied to body text. Heading 1, Heading 2, and so on to Heading 9 styles are applied to headings and subheadings. You can personalize your documents by modifying any style. Your colleague has written a profile of Alison Manning, a tour guide from the QST Sydney branch. You decide to modify the Normal style currently applied to all body text in the document. You also modify the Heading 1 style.

1. Start Word, open the file WD J-1.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, save the file as WD J-Profile of Alison Manning, then click the launcher in the Styles group to open the Styles task pane The Styles task pane lists all the styles in the Word 2010 Quick Style set and includes options for creating new styles, using the Style Inspector, and managing styles. The Title style is currently selected because the insertion point appears in the text “Alison Manning”, which is formatted with the Title style.

2. Right-click Normal in the Styles gallery, then click Modify The Modify Style dialog box opens, as shown in Figure J-3.

3. Click the Font list arrow in the Formatting area, scroll to and select Bell MT, click the Font Size list arrow, select 12 pt, then click OK The Modify Style dialog box closes, and all body text in the document is modified automatically to match the new settings for the Normal style. Text formatted with a style other than the Normal style, such as text formatted with the Heading 1 style, does not change.

4. Select the Early Life heading The Early Life heading is formatted with the Heading 1 style. You want to make formatting changes to the text formatted with the Heading 1 style. In addition to using the Modify Style dialog box, you can apply formatting to text formatted with a style and then update the style to match the new formatting.

5. Use the commands in the Font group to change the font to Bell MT and the font color to Olive Green, Accent 3, Darker 50% You made changes to the character formatting. You continue by making changes the paragraph formatting.

6. With the Early Life heading still selected, click the Line and Paragraph Spacing button again, then click in the Paragraph group, click Remove Space Before Paragraph, click Add Space After Paragraph in the paragraph 7. With the Early Life heading still selected, click the Shading list arrow group, then click Olive Green, Accent 3, Lighter 60% You have made several changes to the selected text. You can update the style associated with the selected text to include the formatting changes you made.

8. Right-click Heading 1 in the Styles gallery to open a menu as shown in Figure J-4, then click Update Heading 1 to Match Selection All three of the headings formatted with the Heading 1 style are updated to match the formatting options you applied to the Early Life heading. Notice that the Heading 1 style in the Styles gallery shows a preview of the formatting associated with that style.

9. Save the document You have used two methods to modify the formatting attached to a style. You can modify the style using the Modify Styles dialog box, or you can make changes to text associated with a style and then update the style to match the selected text. You can use either of these methods to update any predefined style and any style you create yourself. Word 232

Revealing style formatting Word includes two ways to quickly determine exactly what styles and formatting are applied to selected text. These methods are useful when you apply a style to text and not all the changes are made. To find out why, use the Style Inspector to open the Reveal Formatting task pane. To open the Style Inspector, click the text formatted with the style, then click the Style Inspector button at the bottom of the Styles task pane. The Style Inspector lists the styles applied to the selected text and indicates if any extra formats were applied that are not included in the style. For example,

another user could apply formatting such as bold and italic that is not included in the style. You can clear these formats by clicking one of the four buttons along the right side of the Style Inspector or by clicking Clear All to remove all extra formats. If you need to investigate even further, you can click the Reveal Formatting button at the bottom of the Style Inspector to open the Reveal Formatting task pane. The Reveal Formatting task pane lists exactly which formats are applied to the character, paragraph, and section of the selected text.

STEPS

Creating Paragraph St yles Instead of using the predefined styles, you can create styles. A style you create can be based on an existing style or it can be based on no style. When you base a style on an existing style, all the formatting associated with the existing style is also associated with the new style you create, as well as any new formatting you apply to the new style. One type of style you can create is a paragraph style. A paragraph style is a combination of character and paragraph formats that you name and store as a set. You can create a paragraph style and then apply it to any paragraph. You decide to create a new paragraph style called Guide Name and apply it to the text formatted with the Title style, and then you create a new paragraph style called Guide Subtitle and apply it to two other headings in the document.

1. Select Alison Manning at the top of the document, then click the New Style button the bottom of the Styles task pane

at

The Create New Style from Formatting dialog box opens. You use this dialog box to enter a name for the new style, select a style type, and select the formatting options you want associated with the new style. QUICK TIP Any line of text followed by a hard return is considered a paragraph, even if the line consists of only one or two words.

Creating Character and Linked St yles A character style includes character format settings—such as font, font size, bold, and italic—that you name and save as a style. You apply a character style to selected text within a paragraph. Any text in the paragraph that is not formatted with the character style is formatted with the currently applied paragraph style. A linked style includes both character formats and paragraph formats, just like a paragraph style. The difference is that you can apply a linked style to an entire paragraph or to selected text within a paragraph. Linked styles are therefore very versatile. You create a character style called Tours to apply to each tour name and a linked style called QST to apply to each instance of QST Sydney.

1. Select the text Natural Japan in the section below Top Tours, press and hold [Ctrl], then select the text Old Japan at the beginning of the next paragraph You use [Ctrl] to select all the text you wish to format with a new style.

2. Click the New Style button , type Tours in the Name text box, click the Style type list arrow, then select Character 3. Select these character formatting settings: the Bell MT font, 12 pt, Bold, Italic, and the Olive Green, Accent 3, Darker 50% font color, click OK, then click away from the text to deselect it The text you selected is formatted with the Tours character style. You can modify an existing character style in the same way you modify a paragraph style. You decide that you’d prefer the text to be formatted with a different color.

4. Select Natural Japan, change the font color to Blue, Accent 1, Darker 50%, right-click Tours in the Styles task pane to open the menu shown in Figure J-7, then click Update Tours to Match Selection Both of the phrases formatted with the Tours character style are updated. You can also create a linked style. QUICK TIP Mouse over the options in the Text Effects gallery and then use the ScreenTips to help you make the correct selection.

5. Scroll up and select QST Sydney in the paragraph below Tour Guide Career, click the Text in the Font group, then select the Gradient Fill – Orange, Accent 6, Effects list arrow Inner Shadow (last row, second column) 6. Right-click the selected text, point to Styles, then click Save Selection as a New Quick Style The Create New Style from Formatting dialog box opens.

7. Type QST as the style name, click Modify, click Format, click Border, click the bottom border in the Preview to add a thick green border line, then click OK In the Create New Style from Formatting dialog box, you see that the Linked (paragraph and character) style type is automatically assigned when you save a selection as a new Quick Style. The style you created includes character formatting (the text effect format) and paragraph formatting (the border line).

8. Click OK, click anywhere in the paragraph under Early Life, then click QST in the Styles task pane (you may need to scroll up the Styles task pane to view QST) The entire paragraph is formatted with the new QST style, as shown in Figure J-8. Notice that both the character formatting and the paragraph formatting associated with the QST linked style are applied to the paragraph, but that only the character formatting associated with the QST linked style is applied to selected text. You prefer to apply the style just to selected text within a paragraph.

9. Click the Undo button on the Quick Access toolbar, scroll to the paragraph below the Tours with QST heading, select QST Sydney in the paragraph, click QST in the Styles task pane, then save the document Word 236

Managing St yles You can manage styles in a variety of ways. For example, you can rename and delete styles, and you can use Find and Replace to find every instance of text formatted with one style and replace it with text formatted with another style. You can also copy styles from one document to another document. When you apply a Quick Style set to a document, all the list and table styles that you created are not automatically available. You need to copy list and table styles from one document to another document. You use Find and Replace to find each instance of QST Toronto and replace it with the same text formatted with the QST style. You then work in the Manage Styles dialog box to copy the Tour List and the Tour Schedule styles from Alison Manning’s profile to Pierre Lamont’s profile.

1. Move to the top of the document, click Replace in the Editing group, type QST Toronto in the Find what text box, press [Tab], then type QST Toronto in the Replace with dialog box 2.

STEPS QUICK TIP Substitute your name for “Your Name” in the folder name.

Creating a Template A quick way to use all the styles contained in a document, including list and table styles, is to create a template. A template contains the basic structure of a document, including all the paragraph, character, linked, list, and table styles. You can create a template from an existing document, or you can create a template from scratch. Templates that you create are stored as user templates. To base a document on a user template, you click the File tab, click New to open Backstage view, click My templates in the Available Templates area, and then double-click the template you want to open. A new document that contains all the formats stored in the user template you selected opens. You can enter text into the document and then save it, just as you would any document. The original template is not modified. You create a new folder called Your Name Templates to store the templates you create in this unit, change the default location for user templates to the Your Name templates folder, save the Alison Manning profile as a user template, modify the template, and then open the template as a new document.

1. Click the Start button on the taskbar, click Computer, navigate to the drive and folder where you store your files, click New folder, type Your Name Templates as the folder name, then press [Enter] You want the Your Name Templates folder to be the default location for user templates. Then, when you save a document as a template, it is saved to the Your Name Templates folder by default.

2. Close Explorer, click the File tab, click Options, then click Advanced The Advanced option provides you with numerous ways to customize how you work with Word.

QUICK TIP You will not see these folders until you close and then open the Your Names Template folder.

TROUBLE If the plane bullet symbol appears when you delete text under Top Tours, click the Home tab, then click the Bullets button to deselect it and select the Normal style.

3. Scroll to the bottom of the dialog box, click File Locations, click User templates, click Modify, navigate to the Your Name Templates folder, click the Your Name Templates folder to select it, then click OK until you are returned to the document 4. Click the File tab, click Save As, click the Save as type list arrow, click Word Template (*.dotx), then double-click Your Name Templates in the list of folders to open the folder 5. Select the filename in the File name text box, type WD J-Profile Template, then click Save The file is saved as WD J-Profile Template.dotx to your default template location, which is the folder you called Your Name Templates. The .dotx filename extension identifies this file as a template file. Word automatically includes two additional folders in the Your Name Templates folder—the Document Themes and Live Content folders. You do not need to access the files in these folders.

6. Select Alison Manning at the top of the document, type [Enter Guide Name Here], enter the placeholder text as shown in Figure J-16 and be sure to leave the contact information at the bottom of the document as part of the template, click File, click Close, then click Save Now that you have created a template, you can use it to create a new document that contains all the styles and formatting you want.

7. Click the File tab, click New, then click My templates The Templates folder opens, and the template you saved is available.

8. Verify that WD J-Profile Template.dotx is selected, verify that the Document option button in the Create New section is selected, then click OK The template opens as a new document. You can enter text into this document and then save the document just as you would any document.

STEPS

Working with AutoCorrect The AutoCorrect feature is set up to automatically correct most typos and misspelled words. For example, if you type “teh” and press the Spacebar, the AutoCorrect feature inserts “the.” The AutoCorrect feature also inserts symbols when you type certain character combinations. For example, if you type (r), the ® symbol appears. You can modify the list of AutoCorrect options, and you can create your own AutoCorrect entries. These entries can be a word, a phrase, or even a paragraph. You set up AutoCorrect to automatically enter the text you specify when you type a certain sequence of characters. For example, you could specify that “San Francisco, California” be entered each time you time “sfc.” You are editing an article on the Renaissance artist Cellini, and you need to enter the term “Renaissance” in various places in the article. Since you know you will be working on several articles related to the Renaissance, you decide to create an AutoCorrect entry that will insert “Renaissance” each time you type “ren.” You also use AutoCorrect to insert symbols, view the AutoFormat settings, and delete an entry from the AutoCorrect list.

1. Start Word, open the file WD K-1.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, save the file as WD K-Artist Article, click the File tab, click Options (below Help), then click Proofing All the options related to how Word corrects and formats text appear in the Word Options dialog box.

2. Click AutoCorrect Options The AutoCorrect: English (U.S.) dialog box opens. By default the AutoCorrect tab is active.

3. Scroll through the AutoCorrect list to view the predefined pairs of symbols and words

TROUBLE If the insertion point is not blinking in the Replace text box, click the Replace text box to make it active.

QUICK TIP If you do not want an AutoCorrect entry to appear when you type its code, press [Backspace] after typing the code

TROUBLE If the Euro symbol does not appear, type 20AC, press and hold the [ALT] key, then press X.

Notice how many symbols you can create with simple keystrokes. The AutoCorrect list is used in all the programs in the Microsoft Office suite, which means that any word you add or delete from the AutoCorrect list in one program is also added or deleted from all other Office programs. On the AutoCorrect tab, you can create a new AutoCorrect entry.

Working with Citations The Citations & Bibliography group on the References tab includes features to help you keep track of the resources you use to write research papers and articles, as well as any document that includes information you obtained from other sources, such as books and Web sites. During the course of your research, you can create a source by entering information, such as the author, title, and year of publication, into a preset form. Word provides preset forms for 17 source types. As you work on a research paper, you can then insert a citation for an existing source or for a new source that you create. A citation is a short reference, usually including the author and page number, that gives credit to the source of a quote or other information included in a document. Citations are based on information you entered in the source form and are used to generate the bibliography or works cited page. Over time, you can accumulate hundreds of reference sources. You can use the Manage Sources feature to help you organize your sources. You have already inserted some citations into the artist article. Now you need to add two new sources—one to a book and one to a conference proceeding. You also need to format a long quote and include a placeholder citation.

1. Press [Ctrl][F] to open the Navigation pane, type domestic security, click after the ending quotation mark in the document, click the References tab, then click the Insert Citation button in the Citations & Bibliography group A menu opens with a list of sources that have already been entered in the document.

OBJECTIVES

Integrating Word with Other Programs The Office suite includes several programs, each with its own unique purpose and characteristics. Sometimes information you want to include in a Word document is stored in files created with other Office programs, such as PowerPoint or Excel. For example, the report you are writing in Word might need to include a pie chart from a worksheet you created in Excel. You can embed information from other programs in a Word document, and you can create links between programs.

Ron Dawson in the Marketing Department at the

Quest Specialty Travel office in San Diego has started a report on how to market questspecialtytravel.com, QST’s home on the World Wide Web. He asks you to supplement the report with embedded objects from PowerPoint and Excel, with information contained in another Word file, and with data included in files he created in Excel and Access. He then needs you to merge an Access data source with the cover letter that he will send along with the report to all the QST branch managers.

DETAILS

Exploring Integration Methods You can integrate information created with other Office programs into a Word document in a variety of ways. Figure L-1 shows a five-page Word document containing shared information from PowerPoint, Excel, Access, and another Word document. The methods available for sharing information between programs include copy and paste, inserting files, object linking and embedding, and exporting Rich Text Format (.rtf) files from Access. Table L-1 describes each Office program and includes its associated file extension and icon. You review the various ways you can share information between programs.

You can share information in the following ways: • Copy and paste You use the Copy and Paste commands to copy information from one program (the source file) and paste it into another program (the destination file). You usually use the Copy and Paste commands when you need to copy a small amount of text.

• Insert a Word file You can use the Object/Text from File command on the Insert tab to insert the text from an entire file into a Word document. The file types you can insert into Word include Word documents (.docx) or templates (.dotx), documents from previous versions of Word (.doc or .dot), documents saved in Rich Text Format (.rtf), and documents saved in a Web page format, such as .mht or .htm.

• Object Linking and Embedding The ability to share information with other programs is called object linking and embedding (OLE). Two programs are involved in the OLE process. The source program is the program in which information is originally created, and the destination program is the program the information is copied to.

• Objects An object is self-contained information that can be in the form of text, spreadsheet data, graphics, charts, tables, or even sound and video clips. Objects are used to share information between programs. To insert an object, you use the Object command on the Insert tab. This command opens the Object dialog box where you can create an object from new or from an existing file. You can insert an object either as an embedded object or as a linked object.

• Embedded objects An embedded object is created either within a source program or within a destination program and then modified in the destination program using the tools of the source program. For example, you can create a PowerPoint slide in a Word document as an embedded object. Word is the destination program, and PowerPoint is the source program. To make changes to the PowerPoint slide, you double-click it, and the Ribbon associated with PowerPoint is activated. When you insert a file created in another program into a destination program, the file becomes an embedded object that you modify using the tools of the source program within the destination program.

• Linked objects A linked object is created in a source file, inserted in a destination file, and then linked to the source file. When you link an object, any changes you make to the data contained in the object in the source file are reflected in the destination file.

• Exporting tables and reports from Access You can export a table or a report from Access into Word using the Export command. This command produces a Rich Text Format (.rtf) file that you can open in Word and then modify using Word formatting tools. An Access table exported to an .rtf file and then opened in Word is the same as a Word table and can be formatted using Word table styles and other Word features. Word 282

STEPS

Embedding an Excel Worksheet An embedded object uses the features of another program such as Excel, but it is stored as part of the Word document. You embed an object, such as an Excel worksheet or a PowerPoint slide, in Word when you want to be able to edit the object using the source program commands but when you do not need changes made in the source file to be updated in the embedded Word object. You edit an embedded object directly in Word using commands on the Ribbon associated with the source program. The Online Marketing Report contains placeholder text and bookmarks to designate where you need to insert information created in other programs. Your first task is to embed an Excel worksheet.

1. Start Word, open the file WD L-1.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, save it as WD L-Online Marketing Report, then scroll through the report to note where you will insert content from other programs 2. Press [Ctrl][G] to open the Find and Replace dialog box with the Go To tab active, click Bookmark in the Go to what list, verify that “Customers” appears in the Enter bookmark name text box, click Go To, click Close, then press [Delete] to remove the placeholder text Excel Worksheet Here and position the insertion point on a blank line 3. Click the Insert tab, then click the Object button in the Text group The Object dialog box opens.

Inser ting a Word File and Hyperlinks When you want to include the content of an entire Word document in another Word document, you use the Text from File Insert command to insert the entire Word file. When you insert an entire file into a document, the formatting applied to the destination file is also applied to the content you insert. The inserted file becomes part of the Word document, similar to an embedded object, and you cannot return to the original document from the inserted file. After inserting a file into a Word document and as a result expanding the document length, you can help readers navigate the content of a document quickly by creating hyperlinks from text in one part of the document to text in another location in the document. You insert a Word file, then you create hyperlinks and add ScreenTips to the hyperlinks.

Impor ting a Table from Access You can share information between Access and Word in a variety of ways. The most common method is to export an Access table or report to a Rich Text Format (.rtf) file. You can then open the .rtf file in Word and use Word’s table features to format it just as you would format any table. You have already created an Access database that contains information related to online survey results. You open the Access database and export the table containing the survey results to an .rtf file that you then open in Word. Next you copy the Word table into the Marketing Online Report and then format the table with a built-in table style.

Managing Document Links When you create a document that contains linked objects, you must include all source files when you copy the document to a new location or when you e-mail the document to a colleague. If you do not include source files, you (or your colleague) will receive error messages when trying to open the destination file. If you do not want to include source files when you move or e-mail a document containing links, then you should break the links before moving or e-mailing the document. After you break the links, the Update Links command cannot be used to update information in your destination file. Any changes you make to the source files after you break the links will not be reflected in the destination file. The objects in the destination file will appear as they do at the time the links are broken. You need to distribute the Word report to all QST branch managers. You keep a copy of the original report with the links intact, and then you save the report with a new name and break the links. You also view the entire report in Reading Layout view.

1. Open the document WD L-Online Marketing Report, then save it as WD L-Online Marketing Report_Managers You do not want to send along the source file for the Excel pie chart, so you break the link that was created when you copied the pie chart from Excel and pasted it into the Word report.

2. Click the File tab, then click Edit Links to Files in the Related Documents section of the Properties pane The Links dialog box opens, as shown in Figure L-15. You can use the Links dialog box to update links, open source files, change source files, and break existing links. Notice that only one source file is listed in the Links dialog box—the Excel file called WD L-Online Marketing Data.xlsx.

3. With the Excel file selected, click Break Link A message appears asking if you are sure you want to break the selected link.

4. Click Yes, click OK to exit the Links dialog box, then click the Home tab The link between the Excel source file and the pie chart in the Word destination file is broken. Now if you make a change to the pie chart in the Excel source file, the pie chart in Word will not change.

5. Scroll to the Suggested Advertising Expenses pie chart on page 3, then click the pie chart The Word Ribbon is still active, and the Chart Tools contextual tabs are available. When you broke the link to the source file, Word converted the pie chart from a linked object to a chart object. You can use commands on the Design, Layout, and Format tabs to modify the chart object, but you cannot change the content of the pie chart.

TROUBLE What you see on your screen may differ. Remember, Full Screen Reading view shows the document so it is easy to read on the screen. Do not be concerned about page breaks or large areas of white space in this view.

STEPS

Creating and Modif ying Screenshots The Illustrations group on the Insert tab contains the buttons you use to create illustrations in one of six categories: pictures, clip art, shapes, SmartArt, charts, and screenshots. The Screenshot command can provide a gallery of screenshots of all open program windows, such as a Web site window, an Excel worksheet window, and another Word window. You select the screenshot from the gallery and insert it into your document as a graphic object. A screenshot is a static image. If you take a screenshot of a Web page and then the contents of the Web page changes, the screenshot does not change. In addition to inserting a screenshot, you can also use the Screen Clipping option to select just a portion of a window and insert it as a graphic object into your Word document. The document describing QST Sydney’s year in review contains placeholders for two graphic objects that you will insert using the Screenshot and Screen Clipping commands. You want to include a screenshot of the Quest Specialty Travel Web site, so your first step is to open the Web site in your Web browser.

Modif ying a Picture You use the tools on the Picture Tools Format tab to modify a picture in hundreds of different ways. You can crop a picture, change the picture shape, modify the picture border, and apply picture effects such as the Glow and Bevel effects. You can even add alternative text (also known as alt text) to a picture to provide a description of the picture for people who are visually impaired and using a screen reader to read the document. Finally, you can specify an exact position for the picture on the page. The document describing QST Sydney’s year in review contains a picture of a pink flower. You use the picture tools to transform the picture into an interesting graphic object, add Alt Text, and then position the picture precisely.

1. Scroll to the Top Tours heading on page 2, then double-click the pink flower picture By default, a picture inserted in a document is formatted with the Wrap Text setting called In Line with Text. This setting makes the picture part of the line of text it appears next to. QUICK TIP Click a picture to make the Picture Tools Format tab available. Doubleclick a picture to make the Picture Tools Format tab active.

2. Click the Crop button in the Size group, then drag the lower-left crop mark up and to the right so the image appears as shown in Figure M-6 When you crop a picture, you drag the crop handle associated with the part of the picture you want to crop. If you don’t like the crop effect, you can click the Undo button to undo your last crop action.

STEPS QUICK TIP This document contains two pictures of the koala. You will use the second picture in the next lesson.

Removing the Background from a Picture You use the Remove Background feature to remove background objects from a photograph. For example, you can modify a photograph of a person standing in front of a landscape so that only the person is visible. The Year in Review document includes a photograph of a sleeping koala. You use the Remove Background feature to isolate just the koala from the surrounding leaves, and then in the next lesson you use artistic effects to superimpose the isolated koala over a new picture.

1. Scroll to the first picture of the koala under the Prize Winner heading on page 3, increase the zoom to 150%, then scroll so the picture fills the document window You increase the zoom percentage when working with graphics so you can clearly see your changes.

2. Click the koala picture to select it 3. Click Remove Background in the Adjust group Most of the picture turns purple and only the koala and a section of the tree appear in full color, and the Background Removal tab becomes active. You use the buttons in the Refine group on the Background Removal tab to mark which areas of the photograph to keep and which areas to discard.

4. Click the Mark Areas to Keep button in the Refine group, then move the mouse pointer over the picture The mouse pointer changes to a pencil shape that you use to indicate which areas of the photograph to include. QUICK TIP When you mark an area to include or to remove, you can simply click and drag to draw a line across the area. You do not need to be precise.

TROUBLE The process of removing a background takes some time. You do not need to match Figure M-10 exactly.

QUICK TIP If you want to start over, click the Reset Picture button in the Adjust group to return the picture to its original settings.

5. Click the area of the tree near the koala’s left paw and drag the pencil down as shown in Figure M-9, then release the mouse button A portion of the tree reappears. A dotted line showing where you dragged the pointer appears on the tree trunk. The dotted line includes an Include marker, which is a circle with a plus symbol. The Include marker indicates that the line identifies the area of the picture to keep. A Remove marker appears as a circle with a minus symbol. You use the Remove marker to indicate which areas of the picture you want to remove. The markers give a hint about whether something is part of the foreground that you want to keep or part of the background that you want to remove.

6. Mark additional areas of the tree to keep as indicated by the Include markers shown in Figure M-10, then click the Mark Areas to Remove button to remove areas that you don’t want to include as indicated by the lines with Remove markers shown in Figure M-10 The best way to learn more about the Remove Background tools is to spend time experimenting with them. Remember that you can use the Undo button on the Quick Access toolbar to undo any action that produces a result you don’t want. Notice that in the koala picture some areas of the picture appear connected. For example, when you try to remove the top of the tree trunk, a portion of the leaves might appear. When this happens, click the Undo button, then reverse the order you mark things. Use the Mark Areas to Remove pointer to mark the portion of leaves as an area you want to remove and use the Mark Areas to Keep pointer to mark the top of the tree trunk as an area to include.

7. When you are satisfied that the picture appears similar to Figure M-10, click the Keep Changes button in the Close group The picture appears similar to Figure M-11. If you do not like the picture you have created, click the Remove Background button again and then use the Mark Areas to Keep, Mark Areas to Remove, and Undo buttons to further refine the picture.

Compressing pictures When you add a picture to a document, you increase the file size of your document—sometimes quite dramatically. You can use the Compress Pictures command to reduce the file size of the picture. When you apply this command, you can choose to reduce the image resolution and you can specify to delete all cropped areas of a picture. To compress a picture, select it, click the Picture Tools Format tab, click the Compress Pictures button in the Adjust

group, then specify the resolution you want to use. For example, you may choose 220 dpi (dots per inch) for pictures that you want to print and 96 dpi for a picture that you want to send in an e-mail. If you have more than one picture in a document, you can specify that you wish to apply compression options to every picture in the document.

STEPS QUICK TIP You can move the mouse pointer over each of the artistic effects to view how the photograph changes.

Using Ar tistic Ef fects and Layering Options In the Adjust group on the Picture Tools Format tab, you can choose to apply one of 23 artistic effects to a picture, correct the brightness and contrast, modify the color saturation, and sharpen or soften the appearance of a photograph. When you include two or more photographs or graphic objects in your document, you can use the options in the Arrange group on the Picture Tools Format tab to specify how the objects should appear in relation to each other. For example, you can choose to layer objects in order to show one object partially on top of another object. You can also use the Selection and Visibility pane to help you layer objects. You want to combine two versions of the koala bear picture. First, you apply an artistic effect to the untouched picture of the koala, and then you use layering options to superimpose the picture of the koala with the background removed over the picture of the koala with the artistic effect applied.

1. Scroll to and click the untouched photograph of the koala, then click Artistic Effects in the Adjust group 2. Click the Mosaic Bubbles effect as shown in Figure M-12 3. Click Corrections in the Adjust group, then click the Brightness: +20% Contrast: –20% option (second row, fourth column) in the Brightness and Contrast area 4. Reduce the zoom to 60%, click the Wrap Text button in the Arrange group, click Through, click the top picture of the koala, click the Wrap Text button, then click Through You changed the wrapping of both pictures so you can superimpose one picture on top of the other picture.

5. Press the down arrow [ ] to move the selected picture down so that it exactly covers the koala with the Mosaic Bubbles artistic effect as shown in Figure M-13 QUICK TIP You can rename objects in the Selection and Visibility pane so they have meaningful names, such as “koala background removed”. You can also widen the Selection and Visibility pane.

QUICK TIP You can also use the re-order buttons at the bottom of the Selection and Visibility pane to change the layering of pictures.

The picture of the koala with the background removed is superimposed over the picture formatted with the Mosaic Bubbles artistic effect. You show the Selection and Visibility pane and experiment with the layering options.

6. Increase the zoom to 100%, click Selection Pane in the Arrange group, click the eye icon to the right of the currently selected picture in the Selection Pane The photograph of the koala with the background removed is hidden from view. The eye icon is a toggle button that toggles the status of an object between show and hide. The Selection and Visibility pane shows the objects on the current page along with the stacking order of those objects. The picture listed at the top of the pane is the picture on top, which in this example is the photograph of the koala with the background removed.

7. Click the eye icon again to show the koala with the background removed, click the koala picture, click the Picture Tools Format tab, click the Send Backward list arrow in the Arrange group, click Send to Back, notice how the photograph of the koala with the background removed seems to disappear and the pictures in the Selection Pane are re-ordered, click the Bring Forward list arrow, then click Bring to Front The koala picture with the background removed is back on top, and it is listed first in the Selection and Visibility pane.

8. Click the second picture listed in the Selection and Visibility pane, click Color in the Adjust group, click Saturation 200% in the Color Saturation area (top row), then close the Selection and Visibility pane 9.

Editing Clip Ar t A clip art picture is made up of many objects that are grouped together into one picture. When you edit a clipart picture, you are really editing the objects that make up the picture. The Year in Review document contains a clip art picture of an award ribbon that was inserted from the Clip Organizer. First, you ungroup the picture into its component objects, and then you change the color of selected objects and remove an object. Finally, you use the Edit Shape feature to change the shape of one of the objects in the picture.

1. Increase the zoom to 200%, scroll down to view the clip art picture of the ribbon, use the scroll bars to center the ribbon picture in the document window, right-click the picture, click Edit Picture, then click Yes in response to the warning The picture is contained in a drawing canvas.

The drawing canvas is an area for creating or modifying graphics, such as the shapes that make up a clip art picture.

2. Click the Drawing Tools Format tab, then click Selection Pane in the Arrange group The Selection and Visibility pane opens and shows all the objects that make up the ribbon picture. The objects are contained in one group named Canvas. You can click the icon to the left of the word “Canvas” to collapse the list or expand the list.

3. Click any shape that begins with Freeform in the Canvas group in the Selection Pane Selecting a shape in the Selection and Visibility pane selects the corresponding shape in the image. In a clip art picture that contains so many objects, you will find it easier to select shapes by clicking them in the picture.

4. Click the tip of any black star point to select the entire black star shape as shown in Figure M-18, close the Selection Pane, click the Shape Fill button list arrow, then click Green in the Standard Colors section The black star shape is filled with green. You continue to modify shapes that make up the clip art image. TROUBLE Remember to use the Undo button on the Quick Access toolbar if you do not like the results of an action.

5. Click the black object that makes up the background of one of the two ribbon shapes, change its color to Green, repeat for the other black ribbon shape, click the 1 in the center of the black circle, change its color to White, then click the red circle and press [Delete] The ribbon appears as shown in Figure M-19. In addition to changing the color of shapes, you can use the Edit Points feature to change the shape of any of the objects that make up the clip art picture. When you work with the Edit Points feature, you often expand the Drawing canvas so you have more room to work.

6. Drag the left, right, and top dotted edges of the Drawing canvas to provide more white space as shown in Figure M-20, click the large green star shape, click the Edit Shape in the Insert Shapes group, then click Edit Points button Black squares appear around the edges of the shape. These squares identify the shape’s wrap points. You can click and drag any of these wrap points to redraw any shape included in a clip art picture. Some pictures contain hundreds of wrap points, and editing each one can be a long process.

7. Drag a star point up until it extends to the top of the drawing canvas, then use Figure M-21 as a guide to redraw the remaining star points so you have adjusted a total of five star points After you modify specific objects that make up a clip art picture, you can group all the objects back into one object that you can easily size and position.

8. Click a blank area of the drawing canvas, click the Home tab, click Select in the Editing group, then click Select All 9. Click the Drawing Tools Format tab, click the Group button in the Arrange group, click Group, then save the document The modified clip art picture is complete. Word 318

Aligning, Distributing, and Rotating Graphics The Align button in the Arrange group on the Drawing Tools Format tab includes commands you can use to change the relative positioning of two or more objects. For example, you can use the Align Left command to align several drawn objects along their left sides. You can use the Distribute Vertically or the Distribute Horizontally command to display three or more objects so that the same amount of space appears between each object. The Rotate button in the Arrange group includes commands you can use to rotate or flip an object. For example, suppose you insert a clip art picture of a cat stalking to the right. You can use the Flip Horizontal command to flip the cat so that it stalks to the left, or you can use the Rotate option to make the cat stalk uphill or downhill. You decide to include a series of small stars that are aligned and distributed vertically along the left edge of the drawing canvas containing the clip art picture that you modified in the previous lesson.

STEPS

Constructing a Form Template A Word form is created as a form template, which contains all the components of the form. As you learned in an earlier unit, a template is a file that contains the basic structure of a document, such as the page layout, headers and footers, and graphic elements. The structure of a form template usually consists of a table that contains labels and two types of controls: content controls and Legacy Tools controls. A label is a word or phrase such as “Date” or “Location” that tells people who fill in the form the kind of information required for a given field. A control is the placeholder that you, as the form developer, insert into the form. You insert a control to contain the data associated with the label. Figure N-1 shows a completed form template containing several different types of controls. You need to create the basic structure of the form in Word, and then you save the document as a template to a new folder that you create.

1. Start Word, click the File tab, click New, then click My templates in the Available Templates section to open the New dialog box 2. Be sure Blank Document is selected, click the Template option button in the Create New section, then click OK A new document appears in the document window, and Template1 appears on the title bar. QUICK TIP To apply the Title style, click the More in the button Styles group on the Home tab, then click Title.

QUICK TIP To merge cells, select the cells to merge, click the Table Tools Layout tab, then click Merge Cells in the Merge group.

3. Click the Page Layout tab, click Themes, click Concourse, type Marketing Survey, press [Enter], select the text, then apply the Title style and center the text 4. Click below the title, click the Insert tab, click Table, click Insert Table, enter 4 for the number of columns and 8 for the number of rows, click OK, type Name, press [Tab] twice, type Position, select the first three rows of the table, then reduce the width of columns 1 and 3 as shown in Figure N-2 5. Enter the remaining labels and merge cells to create the form shown in Figure N-3 Once you have created the structure for your form, you can save it as a template. First, you create a new folder to contain the template and then you specify this folder as the location of user templates so that Word can find it.

6. Minimize Word, click the Start button on the taskbar, click Computer, navigate to the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, click New folder on the menu bar, type Your Name Form Templates as the folder name, then press [Enter] You set this new folder as the default location for user templates so all templates are stored automatically in the same location and so you do not need to navigate to the folder each time you save a template. A user template is any template that you create.

QUICK TIP Write down the default location so you have the information available when you reset the File Location for User Templates to the default location.

Word 330

7. Close Windows Explorer, return to Template1 in Word, click the File tab, click Options, click Advanced, then scroll to the bottom of the Word Options dialog box 8. Click File Locations, click User templates, click Modify, navigate to the Your Name Form Templates folder, click to select the folder, then click OK until you are returned to the document 9. Click the Save button on the Quick Access toolbar, verify that “Marketing Survey.dotx” appears in the File name text box, change the filename to WD N-Marketing Survey.dotx, then click Save Word saves the template to the new folder you created.

STEPS

Adding Text Content Controls Once you have created a structure for your form, you need to designate the locations where you want users to enter information. You insert text content controls in the table cells where users enter text information, such as their names or positions. Two types of text content controls are available. You use the Rich Text content control when you want formatting, such as bold or a different font size, automatically applied to text as users enter it in the content control. You can also apply a style, such as the Title style, to a Rich Text content control. You generally use the Plain Text content control when you do not need formatting applied to the text that users enter. However, if you want to format a Plain Text content control, you can specify that a style be automatically applied to text as users enter it. You use the Developer tab to access all the commands you use to create and work with forms in Word. You display the Developer tab on the Ribbon, then you insert text content controls in the table cells where you need users to enter text.

1. Click the File tab, click Options, click Customize Ribbon, click the Developer check box in the list of main tabs on the right side of the Word Options dialog box to select it, then click OK The Developer tab becomes available on the Ribbon. The Controls group on the Developer tab contains the buttons you use to create and modify the various elements of a form. Table N-1 describes each content control button in the Controls group. QUICK TIP Design Mode must be active when you insert content controls into a table form.

2. Click the Developer tab, click Design Mode in the Controls group to make Design Mode active, click in the blank table cell to the right of Name, then click the Rich Text Content Control button in the Controls group A Rich Text content control is inserted. When completing the form, the user will be able to enter text into this content control.

3. Click Properties in the Controls group The Content Control Properties dialog box opens.

4.

DETAILS

Exploring Collaboration Options You can collaborate with colleagues in different ways. For example, you can distribute printed documents that show all the changes made by one or more colleagues, along with the comments they have made, or you can share the electronic file of the document, which also shows the changes and comments. In addition, you can collaborate with coworkers over the Internet by working with the Word Office Web Apps on Windows Live. Before you start working with Paula to develop questions for an online survey, you investigate collaborative features available in Word.

The collaborative features in Word include the following: • Review tab The Review tab provides access to commands that allow you to share a document with two or more people. The collaboration commands are included in four groups on the Review tab: Comments, Tracking, Changes, and Compare.

• Insert comments You insert comments into a document when you want to ask questions or provide additional information. When several people work on the same document, their comments appear in colored balloons. Each reviewer is assigned a unique color automatically. The colored comment balloons appear along the right side of the document in Print Layout view. Figure O-1 shows a document containing comments made by two people.

• Track changes When you share documents with colleagues, you need to be able to show them where you have inserted and deleted text. In Word, inserted text appears in the document as underlined text in the color assigned to the person who made the insertion. This same color identifies that person’s deletions and comment balloons. For example, if Paula’s comment balloons are blue, then the text she inserts in a document will also be blue, and the text she deletes will be marked with a blue strikethrough. The default setting for text that is deleted is to show the deleted text as strikethrough and the default setting for text that is inserted is to show the inserted text as underlined. Figure O-1 includes both new text and deleted text.

• Compare and combine documents You use the Compare command to compare documents based on the same original document to show the differences between them. The Compare command is often used to show the differences between an original document and an edited copy of the original. The differences between the two documents are shown as tracked changes. The Combine command is also used to combine the changes and comments of multiple reviewers into a single document when each reviewer edits the document using a separate copy of the original.

• Collaborate online If you are a business user of Word 2010, you can use SharePoint Workspace 2010 to access a coauthoring feature that allows you to work collaboratively on a document with one or more people at the same time. You can edit files in real time, discuss revisions among team members, and review the work done by each person on a team. If you are a home user of Word 2010, you can sign into a Windows Live account and use the Word Office Web App to work collaboratively with another user. You can save a document directly from Word to Windows Live by clicking Save & Send on the File tab, clicking Save to Web, signing into your Windows Live account, and then saving the document. Figure O-2 shows a document open in the Word Web App in a Web browser. In the Word Web App, you can perform simple functions such as typing and formatting text, and inserting pictures, tables, clip art, and hyperlinks.

Including Comments in a Document Sometimes when you review a document that someone else has written, you want to insert a comment about the document text, the document formatting, or any number of other related issues. A comment is contained in a comment balloon that appears along the right side of your document by default. Comment marks and shading appear in the document at the point where you inserted the comment. A line connects the end comment mark and the comment balloon. The Reviewing pane is used to view comments. The Reviewing pane can be set to display tracked changes at the left of the document window or below the document window. Your colleague, Paula Watson, has prepared a document containing a list of survey questions, and she has inserted some comments for your review. You open the document, add a new comment, edit one of the comments that Paula inserted, then delete a comment.

1. Start Word, open the file WD O-1.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, then save it as WD O-QST Online Survey_Paula The comments that Paula inserted appear in colored balloons in the right margin of the document.

Comparing Documents The Compare feature in Word allows you to compare two documents at one time so you can determine where changes have been made. Word shows the differences between the two documents as tracked changes. After identifying the documents you want to compare, you can choose to show the changes in the original document, in the revised document, or combined into one new document. Ron Dawson, your boss at QST, has reviewed the latest version of the QST Online Survey. You use the Compare feature to check the changes that Ron made against the WD O-QST Online Survey_Darren and Susan document.

Using Advanced Find and Replace Options Word offers advanced find and replace options that allow you to search for and replace formats, special characters, and even nonprinting elements such as paragraph marks (¶) and section breaks. For example, you can direct Word to find every occurrence of a word or phrase of unformatted text, and then replace it with the same text formatted in a different font style and font size. You are pleased with the final version of the survey questions. Now you need to consider how best to format the questions for delivery over the Internet. You decide to bold every instance of QST. You use Find and Replace to find every instance of QST, then replace it with QST formatted with bold. You also notice that an em dash (—) appears between the words “Click” and “through“ in two entries in question 2. You use Find and Replace to replace the em dash with the smaller en dash (–).

Signing a Document Digitally You can authenticate yourself as the author of a document by inserting a digital signature. A digital signature is an electronic stamp that you attach to a document to verify that the document is authentic and that the content of the document has not been changed or tampered with since it was digitally signed. When you insert a digital signature line into a Word document, you specify who can sign the document and include instructions for the signer. When the designated signer receives an electronic copy of the document, he or she sees the signature line and a notification that a signature is requested. The signer clicks the signature line to sign the document digitally, and then either types a signature, selects a digital image of his or her signature, or uses a Tablet PC to write a signature. A document that has been digitally signed becomes read-only so that no one else can make changes to the content. You add a digital signature to the online survey.

1. Press [Ctrl][End] to move to the bottom of the document, select your name, press [Delete], press [Backspace] two times to move the insertion point up so it appears just below question 6, click the Insert tab, then click Signature Line in the Text group 2. Read the information about digital signatures that appears, then click OK The Signature Setup dialog box opens. You enter information about the person who can sign the document in this dialog box.

3. Type your name in the Suggested signer text box in the Signature Setup dialog box as shown in Figure O-18, then click OK A space for your signature appears at the position of the insertion point.

4. Double-click the signature line, read the message that appears, then click OK 5. Type your name, click Sign, then click OK The signature appears at the bottom of the document, and an information bar appears at the top of the document window, which includes a message that the file is marked as final and an Edit Anyway button.

6. Click the File tab, click Close, click the File tab, open WD O-QST Online Survey_Final.docx again, then try to type text You are not able to type text because the document has been digitally signed, and the document is marked as final, as shown in Figure O-19.

Click Edit Anyway in the information bar at the top of the document, click Yes to remove the digital signature, click OK, click the Review tab, click the Track Changes list arrow, click Change Tracking Options, return the options to the default settings: Underline for insertions and 3" for the balloon width, then click OK 8. Scroll to the bottom of the document, double-click the signature line, click OK, type your name, click Sign, then click OK 9.

Acquiring a digital ID You can acquire a digital ID from two sources. First, you can purchase a digital ID from a Microsoft partner. Other people can use this type of digital ID to verify that your digital signature is authentic. The Microsoft partner that issues the digital ID ensures the authenticity of the person or organization that acquires the digital ID. Second, you can create your own digital ID, as you did in this lesson. Other

people cannot verify the authenticity of a digital ID that you create yourself. If you open a document that you digitally signed, you will see the digital signature. However, if someone else opens a document that you digitally signed using a digital ID that you created, the person will see an error message. This message tells the user that the digital ID cannot be verified as authentic.

STEPS QUICK TIP By default, recent documents are not displayed on the File menu.

Modif ying Word Options Word includes many default settings designed to meet the needs of most users. You can modify default settings by selecting or deselecting options in the Word Options dialog box. After working with Word for several months, you have identified some default options that do not suit your working style. You work in the Word Options dialog box to change the number of recent documents you can view on the File menu, modify a Spelling option, specify that the Show readability statistics dialog box appears each time you check the spelling, then set Word to check a document for both grammar and style errors.

1. Click the File tab, click Recent, click the Quickly access this number of Recent Documents check box at the bottom of the Recent Documents pane to select it, click in the text box, type 3, then press [Enter] A list of three recent documents appears on the File menu.

2. Click Options In addition to customizing the Ribbon and the Quick Access toolbar, you can access eight other categories in the Word Options dialog box. In Unit J, you used the Advanced option to change the location where templates are stored, and in Unit O, you used the General option to change the user name and initials associated with a computer.

3. Click Proofing, then click the Ignore words in UPPERCASE check box to deselect it Now when you use the Spelling command to check the spelling of a document, Word will check the spelling of words entered in uppercase. QUICK TIP There are four spelling errors to correct.

4. Click the Show readability statistics check box to select it, click OK, click the Spelling & Grammar button in the Text group on the Journals tab, then correct the spelling errors Notice that “COPYWRIGHT” is identified as a spelling error because you changed the option so that Word checks the spelling of words entered in uppercase.

5. Click OK, then compare the Readability Statistics dialog box to Figure P-8 In the Readability Statistics dialog box, Word displays the number of words in the document, the average number of words in each sentence, and the Flesch-Kincaid grade level. The document contained some grammatical errors that were not identified. You can also set Word to check grammar and style. QUICK TIP Table P-1 lists some of the other categories available via Options on the File tab.

6. Click OK, click the File tab, click Options, click Proofing, click the Writing Style list arrow in the When correcting spelling and grammar in Word section of the dialog box, then click Grammar & Style if it is not already set to Grammar & Style 7. Click Settings, scroll down and view the default options that Word checks when Grammar & Style are selected, click the Use of first person check box to select it, click OK, click Recheck Document, click Yes, click OK, press [Ctrl][Home] to move to the top of the document, then click the Spelling & Grammar button in the Text group The first error identified is the use of the first person “I” in the first sentence. Since these are journal entries, you decide that you’d like to keep the first person after all.

8. Click Options, click Settings, click the Use of first person check box to deselect it, click OK, then click OK The next error is the use of “they’re” instead of “their.” The suggested correction does not work.

9. Select they’re in the Contraction Use box, type their, then click Next Sentence The next error is the use of passive voice.

10. Select The day was spent in the Passive Voice box, type I spent the day, click Next Sentence, click OK, click OK, then save the document

STEPS

Creating Keyboard Shor tcuts You may already use keyboard shortcuts to help you work quickly in Word. For example, you might press [Ctrl][C] to copy text to the Clipboard instead of taking one hand from the keyboard and using the mouse to click the Copy button. Word includes hundreds of keyboard shortcuts that you can use to streamline document formatting tasks and to help you work efficiently in Word. You can also create your own keyboard shortcuts for procedures you use frequently. You create a keyboard shortcut that you can use to create a footer building block, and then you use several common keyboard shortcuts to format the document, including the keyboard shortcut to turn on full justification. Finally, you modify hyphenation options so that hyphens are inserted to minimize white space in the document that now uses full justification.

1. Click the File tab, click Options, click Customize Ribbon, click Customize next to Keyboard shortcuts, then click Insert Tab in the list of Categories All the commands associated with the Insert tab are listed in alphabetical order in the Commands box.

2. Click CreateFooterBlockFromSel in the list of Commands This command will create a footer building block from currently selected text and then make the footer block available in the list of Quick Parts.

3. Click in the Press new shortcut key: text box, then press [ALT][F] Notice that the [Alt][F] keyboard shortcut is unassigned, as shown in Figure P-9, which means it is available for you to use. You always want to check if a keyboard shortcut is assigned and then decide if you want to reassign the shortcut to a different command. For example, you would likely keep [Ctrl][B] as the keyboard shortcut for the Bold command rather than use it for another procedure such as adding a border.

4. Click Assign, click Close, click OK, select COPYRIGHT Quest Specialty Travel above the picture, press [Alt][F], then click OK You’ve created a new building block that you can use to enter the selected text in a footer.

5. Press [Delete] to remove the selected text, click the Footer button in the Document group on the Journals tab, click Blank, then click the Quick Parts button in the Insert group of the Header & Footer Tools tab 6. Click Building Blocks Organizer, click Name to put all the building blocks in alphabetical order, scroll to and click COPYRIGHT, click Insert, click the Close Header and Footer button in the Close group, then scroll to view the footer The footer text is inserted. TROUBLE The > symbol appears above the period on your keyboard.

7. Double-click in the footer area, click after Travel in the Copyright line, press [Tab] once, type your name, close the footer and move to the top of the document, select Pacific Odyssey Tour, click the Journals tab, click the Text Effects button in the Text group, select Gradient Fill – Blue, Accent 1 (third row, fourth column), then press [Ctrl][Shift][>] five times to increase the font size 8. Press [Ctrl][A] to select all the text in the document, press [Ctrl][5] to turn on 1.5 line spacing, then press [Ctrl][J] to turn on full justification When full justification is turned on, extra space is inserted in lines so that every line is the exact same width. You can turn on hyphenation to minimize these extra spaces.

9. Click the Hyphenation Options button in the Text group, complete the dialog box as shown in Figure P-10, click OK, click anywhere in the text to deselect it, then save the document Hyphens are added where appropriate, and most extra spacing is removed.

Adding a Watermark and a Page Border You can customize the appearance of a document by including a watermark and a page border. A watermark is a picture or other type of graphic object that appears lightly shaded behind text in a document. For example, you could include a company logo as a watermark on every page of a company report, or you could create “Confidential” as a WordArt object that appears in a very light gray behind the text of an important letter or memo. A page border encloses one or more pages of a document. You can create a box border using a variety of line styles and colors, or you can insert one of Word’s preset art borders. You add a watermark consisting of the text “DRAFT” that will appear lightly shaded behind the document text, you modify the text using the Change Shape button in the Graphics group on the Journals tab, and then you add a page border.

1. Click the Draft button in the Graphics group on the Journals tab, then click Custom Watermark 2. Click the Text watermark option button, click the ASAP list arrow in the Text text box, then select DRAFT 3. Click the Horizontal option button, compare the Printed Watermark dialog box to Figure P-12, click Apply, then click Close If you want to make additional changes to the watermark, you can access it by opening the document header. Both the watermark and the document header are on a drawing layer.

4. Switch to 70% view, double-click above the document title to open the header area, then click any part of Draft that appears below the text 5. Click the Journals tab, click the Change Shape button in the Graphics group, then click the Cascade Down shape (row four, column six in the Warp section) You can also modify the watermark using any of the tools on the Drawing Tools tab. For example, you can modify the transparency settings and fill color, and add special effects such as a reflection or shadow.

6. Double-click anywhere in the document to close the header area 7. Click the Border button in the Document group, click Box, scroll to and click the Thick-Thin border in the Style list box (ninth selection from the top), click the Color list arrow, click Blue, Accent 1, Darker 25%, then compare the Borders and Shading dialog box to Figure P-13 8. Click OK, then save the document The document appears in 70% view as shown in Figure P-14. This document is the formatted journal you will refer to when you want to format other journal entries.

Working with Document Windows You use options in the Window group on the View tab to help you work easily with two or more documents at once. You can view two documents side by side, split a current document into two windows, and place a copy of the current document in a new window. You have created the new Journals tab and modified other settings so that you can quickly format every journal document you receive. To help you format a new journal document, you display it side by side with the formatted journal document so you can easily see what changes you need to make. You also turn on line numbers so that you can quickly determine the length of the two documents.

1. Open the file WD P-2.docx from the drive and folder where you store your Data Files, then save it as WD P-Journal_Japan Culture Tour.docx 2. Click the View tab, click View Side by Side in the Window group, then scroll up if necessary so you can see the title of both documents Notice that synchronous scrolling is turned on, which means that the windows scroll together. When you work with two windows side by side, you generally need to turn off synchronous scrolling so that you can view different parts of each document at the same time. TROUBLE Use the ScreenTips to find “Synchronous Scrolling” in the Window group.

TROUBLE When a procedure takes you away from the Journals tab, click the Journals tab again when needed.

3. Click Window on the Ribbon in the Japan Culture Tour document if the Window group is not displayed, then click Synchronous Scrolling to deselect it 4. Change the view to 70%, then click the Journals tab on the Ribbon in the Japan Culture Tour document 5.

Saving in Alternate File Formats By default, Word saves all documents with the .docx extension. You can also choose to save a Word document in other formats such as PDF and RTF. You save a document as a PDF (Portable Document Format) file when you want to send it to people who may not have Word installed on their computers. You also use the PDF file format for documents that you want to post on a Web site. People can download a document saved as a PDF file and view it using Acrobat Reader, a free program available for download from Adobe. You use the RTF (Rich Text Format) file type when you want to limit the file size of a document and you want to share it with people who may not have access to Word. An RTF file can be opened, viewed, and edited in virtually any word processing program. You save the current document as a PDF file and view it in Acrobat Reader, and then you save another copy of the document as an RTF file. Finally, you take a screenshot of the Journals tab you created in this unit.

Getting Help from the Internet When you cannot find a solution to a Word problem in Help, you can often find answers by searching the Internet. Thousands of tutorials, blogs, discussion groups, forums, and white papers contain information on virtually every aspect of Word from automatically checking for errors to working with Zoom options. The key to

success is to enter as many relevant keywords as possible into your search engine. For example, if you want to find out how to use the hyphenation option, enter “How do I turn on hyphenation in Word?” Entering search terms in the form of a question often yields excellent results.
