There are many different programs on our computer. Some of them we use often, while others we work extremely rarely or never at all. But there are those in the computer that you just need to know and be able to use. And one of them is the Microsoft Word program.
Of course, if you use your computer only for playing games and communicating on the Internet, then you can safely do without Word. But in this case, you can hardly be called a confident user. After all, a confident user is one who knows how to perform basic operations on a computer (create a folder, copy, delete) and work with popular programs, including Word and Excel.
By the way, when an employer requires knowledge of a PC from an employee, this means, first of all, knowledge of Microsoft Word.
What is Word
Microsoft Word is a program for printing text and compiling documents. Simply put, it is used for printing.
You can type any type of text in it: an article, a document, an essay, a term paper, a diploma, and even a book. Also in this program, you can beautifully design the text - add a picture or photo to it, highlight its parts with different colors, change the font, letter size and much more. And in Microsoft Word, you can create a table, print an announcement or make a poster. Plus, the printed can be output to paper, that is, printed on a printer.
Word is a white sheet of paper that you can immediately type on using your computer keyboard. Moreover, this is not one sheet of paper: if you need to print a lot of text, and it does not fit on one sheet, the program will automatically add more sheets. You can also edit the printed text: change the size of letters, font, style, and much more. There are special buttons for this in Word.
How to open the Word program
Look at the desktop, that is, at the screen of your computer. You may see this icon on it:
This icon opens the Word program.
If there is no such icon on the Desktop, click on the "Start" button in the lower left corner of the screen.
A list will open. Click on the item "Programs" (All programs).
This program is used by a large number of people. Andrey Sukhov decided to record a series of educational video lessons "Microsoft Word for Beginners" for novice users and we invite you to familiarize yourself with the basics of this program.
The capabilities of the Microsoft Word office program are great, but in this series of video tutorials you will learn the basics of working with this program and in the future you will be able to work and learn independently.
Microsoft Word is the most popular program for creating text documents. With Word, you can create a text document of almost any complexity. These can be both simple text documents, such as statements, announcements, abstracts and reports, as well as documents that are quite complex in design and content, for example, books ready for publication.
With this note, I want to start a series of video tutorials that will help you take your first steps in learning Word. These tutorials are aimed at beginners.
You can also study the spreadsheet program. After watching the training video lessons Andrey Sukhov.
Lesson 1
In the first lesson, I will talk about the interface of the Word program, that is, about its main elements. Then we will learn how to enter text and perform simple manipulations with it:
Lesson 2
Word allows you to format text. Formatting is a change in the appearance of text, i.e. changing the font, style, color, alignment, etc.
Word formatting tools are quite diverse and allow you to format text according to your desire and taste.
Continuing the topic of working in the Word program that I started in the first video tutorial from the Word for Beginners series, I want to talk about the main formatting tools of this program.
Lesson 3. How to create a numbered or bulleted list in Word
Continuing the series of video tutorials on Microsoft Word, I present the following lesson.

From the lesson you will learn how you can create a numbered, bulleted or multilevel list by pressing one button in the program, as well as how to work with these lists - add new items or change the nesting level of an item in a multilevel list.
At the end of the video tutorial, I will show you how easy it is to create a red line in a paragraph of text.
Lesson 4. How to insert and edit images in Word
In the fourth video tutorial on text editor Microsoft Word, I'll talk about inserting images into a document.
In this video tutorial, I'll show you how you can insert any pre-prepared images and photos into a text document, how you can easily and quickly resize an image, apply various artistic effects to photos, or crop an image as you wish right in Word.
At the end of the video tutorial, I will show how you can get complete statistics on the created text document, i.e. how you can quickly get information about the number of words or characters in the text.
Lesson 5. How to create a table in a Word document
In the fifth video tutorial on Microsoft Word, I will talk about inserting tables into a text document.
In this video tutorial, I'll show you how you can insert tables with an arbitrary number of rows and columns, add or delete rows in an arbitrary place in a table, and how to merge or split table cells as needed.
We will also look at the process of inserting text into table cells and formatting the text in a simple table.
Lesson 6
In everyday life, we periodically have to write various statements, reports, reports and other similar documents.
Of course, you can write such documents manually, or you can type an application on a computer in a matter of minutes, for example, in Microsoft Word.
That's what this video is about:
Lesson 7
Using the Word program, you can create any text documents, sometimes even not quite ordinary ones.
So if you need to create a simple advertisement for the sale-purchase-rent-rent of something, then you can create it in a matter of minutes in Word, and then print it in the required quantity.
See the video for how to do this:
The popular test editor Microsoft Word is very popular among users in the world. This is the most powerful and convenient professional application for working with text documents.
Microsoft Word is part of the Microsoft Office suite of office programs. Many books and guides have been published on working with Word. Many users have learned to use the program on their own, so some settings and functionality of the program may be unknown to them.
In this article, I have written some simple tips for working with the Word program that will be useful for a novice user. These 15 useful Word tips work in Microsoft Word 2007, Microsoft Word 2010, Microsoft Word 2013, Microsoft Word 2016. Probably almost everything works in Microsoft Word 2003 (I have no way to check).
How to select an entire document
In the window of an open Word document, press the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl" + "A".
How to highlight an offer
Press the "Ctrl" button, and then click on any word from the sentence with the mouse cursor.
How to highlight a paragraph
To select a paragraph, triple-click on any word in that paragraph.
How to highlight text fragments in different places in a document
Select the first necessary piece of text in the Word document in any convenient way, and then, by pressing the "Ctrl" key, select the other necessary pieces of text.
How to select a large piece of text
Place the mouse cursor at the beginning of the fragment, and then, pressing the "Shift" key, click the mouse cursor at the end of the fragment.
How to change case
If you accidentally typed text in capital letters, you can return the letter case to normal by first selecting the text, and then pressing the "Shift" + "F3" keys.
Simple text wrap
Wrapping text in a document without using copy/paste. Select a part of the text, and then press "F2", move the cursor to the desired location in the document, and then press the "Enter" key.
The text will be moved to the new location in the document.
Underline text skipping spaces
By default, the standard order works in Word: when text is underlined, words and spaces are affected (solid underline). What if in the text you need to underline only words, skipping spaces? To do this, select the text, and then press the keys "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "W".
As a result, only words will be underlined in the text of the document, and spaces will be skipped. Pressing these keys again cancels the underline.
Jump to the beginning or end of a document
In the window of an open Word document, click on the keyboard shortcuts:
- "Ctrl" + "Home" - go to the beginning of the document
- "Ctrl" + "End" - go to the end of the document
Quick navigation through hyperlinks
By default, in Word, to follow a link (hyperlink), you must first press the "Ctrl" key, and then click on the link. Hyperlinks can go to sites on the Internet, to other files, or within the document itself, to a specific location in the text of the document. Now I will tell you how to follow the link with one click of the mouse.
Enter Word preferences, select "Options" and then "Advanced". In the Edit Options section, uncheck the box next to CTRL+Click to Select Hyperlink.
Taking a screenshot in Word
Starting with the version of Word 2010, the program has the ability to create screenshots (screenshots). The screenshot is inserted directly into the Word document.
Go to the "Insert" tab, in the "Images" group, click on the "Snapshot" button. Next, select a window thumbnail from the list of open windows, or click on "Screen Clipping", and then select the desired fragment of the monitor screen with a frame.
Next, Word will automatically insert the screenshot into the open document. This image can be moved or resized like any other image in a Word document. The screenshot feature works in Word 2010, Word 2013, Word 2016.
Combining Documents
In Word, you can quickly merge documents so you don't have to select, copy, and paste documents one at a time.
First, open a new Word document, then go to the "Insert" tab, click on the arrow next to the "Object" button, select "Text from file ..." in the menu that opens.
After that, the contents of the selected documents will be sequentially copied into a new Word document.
Document Comparison
Suppose you have a need to compare two versions of the same document. Select a document, open the "Review" tab, click on the "Compare" button. Two options will open in the menu: "Compare ..." and "Combine ...". Click on the "Compare..." option.
In the window that opens, you will see the differences between the versions of the document highlighted in red.
Password protection
To ensure privacy, encrypt your Word document with a password. Access to the encrypted document will be opened only after entering the password. You can read more about this.
How to repeat your actions several times in a row
In order not to repeat your actions several times in a row (typing text, inserting, deleting, etc.), use the repeat action command. After the action you want to repeat, press the F4 keyboard button.
Article Conclusions
With the help of 15 useful tips, the user can work more productively and quickly in Microsoft Word.
We study the most popular text editor Microsoft Word. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to create a new document, enter, edit, and format text, create lists, apply styles, and more.
With this article, we open a whole series of training materials with which you will learn how to create high-quality text documents in the most popular application in this area - Microsoft Word (Word). The presentation here will be in a rather primitive language, which may at first scare off readers who are already partially familiar with this editor. But, believe me, you will most likely find useful information in this cycle.
Microsoft Word is a text editor (processor) used to create professional-looking documents. The name Word was not chosen by chance, because in translation from English it means "Word".
Due to the fact that Word combines the most modern text formatting tools, with it you can easily create documents of any complexity and organize them. In addition, with powerful editing and editing tools, this application provides a convenient environment for multiple users to collaborate on a single document.
In the first part of the Word tutorial series, you will learn how to create a new document, enter and edit text, and get acquainted with some basic types of its formatting. Here we will begin our acquaintance with the newfangled ribbon interface of the editor. We will also look at creating bulleted and unlabeled lists, changing document margins, and much more.
PROGRAM WINDOW
When you open Word in the program window, its two main parts are displayed: the ribbon located on top (highlighted in red in the figure below) and an empty document that occupies almost the entire program window.
The ribbon includes a set of buttons and commands that perform various actions on a document and its contents (for example, resizing text or printing it). The document window itself looks like an ordinary white sheet of paper and is designed to enter all kinds of test information.
Also above the ribbon on the left is the quick launch menu, in the middle is the name of the document, and in the upper right corner are the buttons for minimizing, resizing and closing the program window.
In the opened document in the upper left corner of the page you will see the cursor, that is, a small blinking vertical bar. This feature indicates that, starting from this place, the characters you entered will appear.
ENTERING AND EDITING TEXT
After opening the program, just start typing, and the letters, words, and sentences you enter will start showing up on the document page. In order to start typing on the same page, but one line below, you must press the Enter key. The number of hits on Enter will correspond to the number of skipped lines. As you enter text, the cursor gradually moves to the right. When you reach the end of the line, just keep typing letters. The characters and the insertion point will automatically wrap to the next line.
If you need to start a new paragraph, press the Enter key to do so. As a result, the cursor will automatically appear at the beginning of a new line. If you want to make the spacing between paragraphs a little more, press the Enter key again before you start typing a new paragraph.
If you need to correct a mistake in the typed text, just place the cursor to the right of the unnecessary letter and press the Backspace key. The cursor will delete the character to the left of it. If you want to erase the entire word, press the indicated key as many times as the word disappears. There is another option for deleting an error: put the cursor at the beginning of the word, that is, to the left of it and press the required number of times the Del key.
Practice your typing and editing skills by typing a few arbitrary paragraphs, or by typing our suggestion.

ERROR CORRECTION
As you type, Word warns you of grammatical or spelling errors by highlighting them with a wavy green or red line. A green underline indicates that the grammar needs to be checked, and a red underline indicates possible spelling errors or that the word (for example, a proper name or place names) is not recognized, that is, it is not in the dictionary of the Word editor.
What to do with such highlights? To do this, move the mouse cursor over the underlined word and press its right button. As a result, a small window will appear with suggested fixes. Select the required word and click on it with the left mouse button. The word will be replaced and the underscore removed. If the word is not recognized, Word will not offer any suggestions. Note that if such underlining is not corrected, it will not appear on the printed pages of the document.
Similar actions can be done with green underlines. But keep in mind that Word is good at recognizing spelling errors, most of which are quite easy to fix, and finding grammatical and word usage errors on your own is much more difficult. If you think you're right and Word suggests the wrong options, just skip the correction by selecting the appropriate item from the right-click menu and the underline will be removed.
If you don't feel comfortable focusing on every underscore, you can ignore them as you type, and check spelling and grammar for the entire document when you're done typing. To do this, open the tab Peer review at the top of the ribbon and select Spelling in Group Spelling.
If you still have questions about working with the ribbon, come back to this point later, as the description of working with it will go a little lower.
SELECTING TEXT FRAGMENTS
In order to perform any actions with the text in the document, it must be selected, and then the desired command must be applied to the selected area. To select a whole word or a preposition, it is enough to double-click on it, after which the selected area will be highlighted in blue.
There are two ways to select an arbitrary piece of text. In the first case, place the blinking cursor at the beginning of the fragment you want to highlight. Then press the Shift key and, without releasing it, click at the end of the desired fragment. After that, the required text will be highlighted with a blue background to show that it is selected. Click anywhere in the document to deselect.
In the second case, also set the blinking cursor to the beginning of the fragment, but this time hold down the left mouse button and move its pointer to the end of the desired fragment. After achieving the desired result, the button must be released.
If you need to select several fragments in different parts of the text, use the Ctrl key. Select the first section of text in any way, then press Ctrl and, without releasing it, select the next section, after which the key can be released. If you need to select another fragment, press the Ctrl key again and continue.
TEXT FORMATTING
To draw attention to important information, for example, you can make text bold, italic, or underlined. But these are trifles. You can change its size, style, color, background and apply animation elements to it. And even this is not the whole list of opportunities that Word provides to users when working with text.
Now it's time to remember the ribbon (ribbon interface), which was discussed at the very beginning of the article, and find out how you can use it.
At the top of the working window there are several tabs. Each of them contains a specific set of actions. We need to select the second tab - home(If it is not selected, you must click on it with the left mouse button).
Each tab contains several groups with commands that combine several elements. On the tab home find a group Font(the names of the groups are in the bottom line of the tape). This group contains several commands and buttons that allow you to make various changes to the text.
In our case, select an arbitrary section of text or a whole word, and then click on the corresponding buttons in the above group to change its style.

As can be seen from the figure, after pressing the button Bold, the selected text has changed its style. And now let's make it even more slanted and underlined by clicking on the buttons Italics And underlined.
In this case, the underline can be either regular solid or wavy, dotted, double, etc. Use the triangle button on the right to see the full list of options.
.png)
From our example, you can see that you can apply several types of formatting to a single selection.
As you may have noticed, the group Font contains quite a lot of different useful buttons that make it possible to change the type and color of the font, its size, cross out the font or convert it to superscripts and subscripts, add animation or background. Select a piece of text and try to apply all these formatting options to it yourself by clicking on the appropriate buttons.
STYLES
The method of making changes discussed in the previous section is convenient only if you need to change the format of just a few characters, words, or sentences. To apply several types of formatting to the entire document at once, styles.
Different kinds of styles are available on the tab home in Group Styles. It is enough to select any style to automatically change the font, text size, attributes and paragraph formatting. For example, you can change the font style, make the text larger, and add bold formatting at the same time.
.png)
As you can see from the figure, after choosing a style called Heading 1, our first paragraph has been converted into a heading (the font size has increased, its color and thickness have changed).
To experiment, on the tab home in Group Styles Hover your mouse over the different styles one by one. Thus, you can see the changes that will happen to the document after you want to apply any option. To finally apply the selected style, just click on it with the left mouse button. To view other styles, you can open the collection by clicking the button in the lower right corner of the block with an arrow Other.
CREATING LISTS
If you need to create a list in a document, this can also be done on the tab home in Group Paragraph(which is located to the right of the group Font).
Let's practice. First of all, separate the text that will be converted into a list into different paragraphs using the Enter key. At the same time, it can be both individual words and whole sentences.
In our example, we decided to list the last paragraph.
.png)
Now select the text you want to convert to a list. In the Paragraph group, click the button Markers. The text will be converted to a bulleted list. Without deselecting the list, press the button Numbering to create a numbered list.

PAGE FIELDS
The margins of a page are the empty space around the edges of the page. The default margins for the top, bottom, left, and right of the page are 2 cm, 2 cm, 3 cm, and 1.5 cm, respectively. This is the most common margin width and is often used for most documents. But if you need fields of a different size, you need to know how to change them. Margins of other sizes may be useful, for example, when writing short letters, recipes, invitations, or poems.
The ribbon is also used to resize fields. Only this time use tab Page layout. You must first click it to select it, and then in the group Page settings select item fields. You will see images (icons) of the fields and their sizes.
The first value of the list is a field Normal which is currently active. To create narrower margins, you must click the button narrow. If you want to make the left and right margins much wider, click wide. When choosing a field type, they will automatically be applied to the entire document.
When fields are selected, the background color of their icons will change. By pressing the button again fields, thanks to this change in background color, you can determine what size margins are set.
WINDOWBACKSTAGE
In order not to lose the changes made in the work, they need to be saved, and the sooner this is done, the better. To do this, open the very first tab on the ribbon. File. A large window will appear called Backstage, in which you can perform various operations, for example, save, open, print documents, and so on.
In the left pane of the window that appears, select Save. A new smaller window will appear. In this window, you need to specify where on the computer you want to save the document, as well as what name it will have. After you save a document, keep working by saving it periodically. It is also very convenient to save a document at any time by pressing the Ctrl + S key combination.
If the document is already ready to be printed, open the tab again File. In the left pane of the menu that opens, select the command Seal. A large window will appear in which you need to click on the line Seal. Of course, at the same time, a printing device must be connected to the computer - a printer or an MFP. As in many other cases, you can print a document using hot keys - in this case, this is the key combination Ctrl + P.
After the work on the text document is completed and the document is saved, close the file. To do this, open the tab File and in the left area click close.
To find a document after you have closed it, browse the list Latest Documents. Click a document in the list and it will open.
To complete work in Word in the tab File choose a team Exit at the very bottom of the menu or simply click on the cross in the upper right corner of the program window.
CONCLUSION
On this, let me finish the first part of the training materials on the most popular text editor Microsoft Word.
To consolidate the acquired skills, be sure to practice your knowledge by typing a few short texts yourself and applying various formatting elements to them.
In the next part, we'll learn how to cut and paste chunks of text, change line spacing, justify, use formatting marks, and more.

There are a lot of different files in different formats on the computer. We often use some files from these formats, while working with others very rarely or never at all. But there are those in the computer that you just need to know and be able to use. And one of them is doc files. These are a variety of documents, with the work on which all users who decide to master the computer begin their work. Of course, if you use your computer only for playing games and communicating on the Internet, then you can safely do without Word. But in this case, you can hardly be called a confident user. After all, a confident user is one who knows how to perform basic operations on a computer (create a folder, copy, delete) and work with popular programs, including Word and Excel. In this review, I will just tell you how to use the free WindowsWord program to view and edit Doc files.
We open the program. We need to open a new text document. To do this, click on the file, as shown in the picture.
then click the open button as shown below
We get such a normal file as a result
Saving a file is also very easy. You need to press the button with a floppy disk and the file will be saved
Now let's look at the document search function. Indeed, if the document is more than a dozen pages, a search is often required. To do this, on the top toolbar we find the edit tab and search in it, as shown in the figure or simply by pressing Ctrl + F
it and you can enter the search words.
But let's not forget that we are editing the text. Therefore, it is very important for us to work with the font. The Windows Word program has a special Font window that can be opened by clicking on the button in the Font toolbar at the top. It's easy to change the font, font size, writing style (bold, semi-bold, italic, strikethrough), as well as the font color and background color of the font. This is what the window looks like
Now let's look at working with tables. Here everything is very simple to create a table, click on the table tab, create a table as shown below
In the window that opens, select the number of rows and columns, as well as the scale of the table
If you click on the table field with the right mouse button, in the menu that opens, you can choose: cut, copy, paste, change the font, paragraph, list, you can add a line above or below, and add a column to the left or right, split a cell and view the properties of the entire tables
You can also easily change the document size from A4 to A5, A6, or even set your own page size. The size button is at the bottom of the toolbar
This concludes my review of the main features of the new free WindowsWord editor. As a result, I can say that it is very simple to use it, it is easier than Microsoft Office in my opinion. And for beginners it is more suitable, because. there is not a huge number of buttons in which it is so easy for a beginner to get confused. Great for general editing. Main advantages: ease of use and free of charge this text editor.
More recently, a new program has been released that performs all the functions of an office, but does not require additional activation and is quite easy to use in practice. We will talk about the basics of working with it below.
First steps
So, you have installed the program, its step-by-step installation is described in the previous article. What's next? Double click on the desktop icon that looks like this
The program window opens before us. It is rather unremarkable, does not differ from those that you may have seen before, but its interface is convenient and everything you need and frequently used is located in front of your eyes, which helps you easily navigate.
Above us is a toolbar, just below a white field, which is an analogue of a blank sheet of paper and on which you actually need to type and edit text, and on the left you can view the number of pages and their thumbnail image.
Toolbar
This is what the toolbar looks like in its entirety:
As you can see, its topmost part has the following tabs:
When you click on any of them, a context menu pops up, consisting of various tools that help when working with text. So you can click each tab to visually familiarize yourself with the interface.
Below are the icons of the most commonly used functions that are used in working with text documents. They are organically sorted into sections, which makes it easy to navigate even for an inexperienced user.
We will not list them all, since there are quite a lot of them, but we will deal with the main tasks.
Preservation
The first thing to keep in mind when working with documents is saving, without this function all your work will be done in vain. It looks like this on the toolbar. And then choose a place to save the document according to the standard procedure.

Windows Word is a new user-friendly text file editor available for free download. The program is suitable for creating and editing files with text information, reading books and the like. The editor looks like this:
After launching the application, you can start creating a new document, and then use the save function. It is extremely simple and similar to the same function in any other Windows applications: File -> Save, or File -> Save As ...
Or you can open an existing file in order to familiarize yourself with its contents and / or edit the information contained in it. This is also done in the standard way: File -> Open -> Name of the searched file.
Like any solid editor, Windows Word, among other things, has the function of quickly searching for words or text fragments in an open file. In order to call the search window, you can press the key combination Ctrl + F, or the button with the image of binoculars. In the window that opens, you must enter the word or phrase that you want to find in the text. You can also select search functions: consider or ignore case, search only for matches of the whole word, search below or above the current cursor position. After that, you need to click on the "Find Next" button, and the matches in the text will be highlighted in blue.
Editing text information in Windows Word follows the same rules as working with texts in any other editor. In addition to direct text editing, with this editor you can add hyperlinks, pictures, tables to the file. This can be done both through the "Insert" and "Table" menus, and using the corresponding buttons on the panel. Using the sequence of actions Insert -> Symbol, you can insert symbols of the Greek alphabet, mathematical formulas, and many others into your document.
Of course, Windows Word also provides a large number of options for changing the style of text. You can choose the font, text and background colors, make the font bold, italic, underlined or strikethrough, subscripted or superscripted. All this can be done both through the "Font" menu ("Style", "Size", "Text Color", "Text Background Color"), and using the corresponding buttons.
The Windows Word editor also has a convenient menu item "Paragraph", with which you can format the text: select the distribution of lines to the left, right, width or center. Also, through this menu item, you can add numbering, bullets, change indents and intervals. The same can be done using the buttons on the panel, as well as by dragging the corresponding sliders on the main working field.
A document opened in Windows Word can also be sent for printing. This can be done either through the menu File –> Print, or using the button with the image of the printer. It is also possible to preview an open document before printing to get a better idea of how it will look on paper.
