Microsoft Word 2007 Basic Features

Lesson 2:

Type, Backspace, and Delete

In Microsoft Word, you create documents by typing them. For example, if you want to create a report, you open Microsoft Word and then begin typing. You do not have to do anything when your text reaches the end of a line and you want to move to a new line—Microsoft Word automatically moves your text to a new line.  If you want to start a new paragraph, press Enter. Microsoft word creates a blank line to indicate the start of a new paragraph. To capitalize, hold down the Shift key while typing the letter you want to capitalize.  If you make a mistake, you can delete what you typed and then type your correction.

You can use the Backspace key to delete. Each time you press the Backspace key, Microsoft Word deletes the character that precedes the insertion point. The  insertion point is the point at which your mouse pointer is located. You can also delete text by using the Delete key. First, you select the text you want to delete; then you press the Delete key.

Type and Backspace

1. Type the following sentence:
   Joe has a very large house.
2. Delete the word "house." Using either the arrow keys or the mouse, place the cursor between the period and the "e" in "house."
3. Press the Backspace key until the word "house" is deleted.
4. Type boat. The sentence should now read:
   "Joe has a very large boat."

Delete

Delete the word "very" from the sentence you just typed.

1. Select the word "very." You can place the cursor before the "v" in the word "very," press and hold down the Shift key, and then press the right arrow key until the word "very" is highlighted.
2. Press the Delete key. The sentence should now read:
   "Joe has a large boat."

Insert and Overtype

While creating your document, you may find you need to insert text—place new text between existing text. Suppose, you type the sentence, "Joe has a large boat."  After typing it, you decide you want to change the sentence to "Joe has a  large blue boat." With Microsoft Word, inserting a word, phrase, or even several paragraphs is easy.

Alternatively, you may want to overtype text—replace old text with new text. For example, suppose you type the sentence, "Joe has a large blue boat." After typing it, you decide you want to change the sentence to  "Joe has a largegray boat." With Microsoft Word, overtyping the word blue with the word gray is also easy.  Before you attempt to insert or overtype, you should check the mode you are in—Insert or Overtype. You right-click the Status bar and then use the Customize Status Bar menu to place the Insert/Overtype button on the Status bar. You can then use the Insert/Overtype button to switch between Insert and Overtype mode. When you are in Insert mode, you can insert text. When you are in Overtype mode, you can overtype text. By default, Microsoft Word is in the Insert mode.

Placing the Insert/Overtype button on the Status bar

1. Right-click the Status bar. The Customize Status Bar menu appears.
2. Click Overtype. The Insert/Overtype button appears on the Status bar.
3. If the word Insert appears on the Status bar, you are in Insert mode.
4. If the word Overtype appears on the Status bar, click the word Overtype and it will change to Insert, thereby changing Word to Insert mode.

Insert

Make sure you are in Insert mode before proceeding. You are going to insert the word "blue" between the words "large" and "boat."

1. Place the cursor after the space between the words "large" and "boat."
2. Type the word blue.
3. Press the spacebar to add a space.
4. The sentence should now read:
   "Joe has a large blue boat."

Overtype

You can type over the current text (replace the current text with new text) in the Overtype mode. Do the following to change to the Overtype mode.

• Click "Insert" on the Status bar. The word Insert changes to Overtype.

Change the word "blue" to "gray."

1. Place the cursor before the letter "b" in "blue."
2. Type the word gray.
3. The sentence should now read:
   "Joe has a large gray boat."

Note: You can overtype text without changing to Overtype mode by selecting the text you want to overtype and then typing.

Bold, Italicize, and Underline

When creating a document, you may need to emphasize particular words or phrases by bolding, underlining, or italicizing. Also, certain grammatical constructs require that you bold, underline, or italicize.  You can  bold, underline, and italicize when using Word. You also can combine these features—in other words, you can bold, underline, and italicize a single piece of text.

When you need to perform a task in Microsoft Word, you can usually choose from several methods. The exercises that follow show you how to bold, underline, or italicize using four different methods: using the launcher, the Ribbon, the Mini-toolbar/context menu, and the keyboard.

Type the following exactly as shown. Remember, pressing the Enter key starts a new paragraph. Press the Enter key at the end of each of the following lines to start a new paragraph.

Launcher: Bold Italicize Underline these words. All three Regular
