Chapter 1 - Exploring Word

Microsoft Word 2010 is a full-featured word processor in which you can create and

design documents such as letters and memos. When creating these documents, you

can choose from a variety of sizes and fonts. You can edit documents, as well as

enhance their appearance and then print them in a variety of formats. You can also use

graphics and tables for newsletters and sales brochures. Features are also available

that can improve a finished document, such as the Spelling and Grammar feature

that will ensure your document is free of spelling and grammatical errors.

Formatting and consistency are made easier through task panes. The Reveal

Formatting task pane displays the formatting applied to selected text as well as

providing links that open formatting dialog boxes with a single click.

1.1 Saving, Closing, Opening and Creating a Document

When Microsoft Office 2010 is installed, it creates a Microsoft Office submenu in

your All Programs menu containing the shortcuts to all of your Office applications.

You can open Microsoft Word 2010 by selecting it from this menu.

You can use the Start menu to start Word. Once the program starts, a brief copyright

screen appears, and then the application window opens with a new, blank document.

When you save a document for the first time, Word opens the Save As dialog box in

which you enter the desired file name and location. A file name can consist of

multiple words (up to 255 characters) and should be descriptive enough for you to

recognize the contents. The following characters cannot be used in file names:

forward slash (/), backslash (\), greater than symbol (>), less than symbol (<), asterisk

(*), quotation marks (“, ”), question marks (?), pipe symbol ( | ), colon (:), or

semicolon (;). Word automatically assigns the .docx extension when you save a file

for the first time.

Step-by-Step

1. Open a new workbook if necessary.

2. Click File ribbon Save File name: TestClick .

Note: for Office 2007 use the Office button .

3. Save the file in C:\DATA\Word2010-1Click

1.2 The Ribbon

The Ribbon, located under the application title bar, and is a band of functional Tabs that replaces

the menu system used in previous versions. The Home ribbon tab brings together the most

frequently used commands in one easily accessible place. While some buttons in the Ribbon

immediately apply a command, such as the Bold button, other buttons offer a large range of

choices. When you see a button with a down-pointing arrow, it indicates that the button offers

several options. Generally, clicking this type of button displays a Gallery, although some buttons

display just a menu, while others show both a gallery and a menu. A Gallery is a graphic display

of the options available from the button. If a button appears dimmed, it indicates that the

command is not available for the current task.

The buttons are arranged in named Groups within each tab. The Group Names appear below the

buttons. A Launcher Arrow to the right of some Group Names opens either a dialog box or a

task pane providing additional options not available from the buttons.

The Ribbon

The following are some of the ribbon tabs that appear on top of the ribbon:

File Button - This is located in the upper left corner and contains file related

commands.

Home ribbon tab - This contains most of the format related concepts in one

ribbon.

Insert ribbon tab - Used to insert objects such as graphic items.

Page Layout ribbon tab – Used to define page settings or things that will affect

page layout.

References ribbon tab - This includes references such as table of contents, index,

etc.

Mailing ribbon tab – This allows you to send letters to envelops, merging letters,

etc.

Review ribbon tab - This includes spell check and tools that analyze the

document.

View ribbon tab - Includes Zoom, Print Layout, and window layout tools.

button to open an existing document or create a new document using templates.

In the document area, you will notice a blinking vertical line in the upper, left corner

of the document. This blinking line indicates the position of the next typed character

and is known as the insertion point.

You press the [Enter] key to move the insertion point so that you can begin typing a

new paragraph, create a blank line between paragraphs, or end a line of text (such as

the individual lines of an address).

When typed text fills a line, Word automatically moves to the beginning of the next

line. This feature is called word wrap. You press the [Enter] key only when you want

to begin a new paragraph or insert a blank line.

A red, wavy underline appears under a word if it is misspelled or not in the dictionary.

A green, wavy underline appears if a grammar rule is violated. If there is a wavy blue

line that would indicate contextual spelling which means the word does not fit in the

sentence or out of context. A purple, dotted underline, called a smart tag indicator,

appears under certain types of data, such as a person’s name. Pointing to the smart tag

indicator displays the Smart Tag Actions button, which provides a list of actions you

can take regarding the data.

2.1 Saving a New Document

After creating a new document, you can save it to disk so that you can retrieve it at

another time. When you save a document for the first time, Word opens the Save As

dialog box, in which you enter the desired file name and location. A file name can

consist of multiple words and should be descriptive enough for you to recognize the

contents. When you are naming a document, the following characters cannot be used

in file names: forward slash (/), backslash (\), greater than symbol (>), less than

symbol (<), asterisk (*), quotation marks (“, ”), question marks (?), pipe symbol ( | ),

colon (:), or semicolon (;). Word automatically assigns the .docx extension when you

save a file for the first time.

The default folder for saving documents is the User Documents folder. If you want to

save the document in a different drive or folder, you can use the Favorite Links list to

select the desired location. The folders and files residing in the selected location

appear in the list box. The Save As dialog box can be resized like any other window to

fit your needs.

Once a document has been saved, its file name appears in the application title bar.

Subsequent saves do not display the Save As dialog box; instead, Word updates the

changes to the existing file each time you save the document.

The Save As dialog box

Step-by-Step

1. File ribbon tab Click Save

2. Type memo

3. Navigate to the C:\Data\Word2010-1 folder.

4. Click Save

5. Press [Enter] twice

6. Type For more information, please feel free to call me at extension 1128.

7. Use the Save button to save the file again.

Notice that the Save As dialog box does not open; the changes are saved to the

existing memo document in the student data folder.

2.2 Closing a Document

When you have finished working on a document, you can close it. If you close a

document without saving the most recent changes, Word prompts you to save it. You

can choose to save the changes made to the document, or you can close the document

without saving the changes.

SAMPLE


Page 15

Step-by-Step

1. File ribbon tabClose

2. If a message box opens asking if you want to save the changes to the current

document, select No.

2.3 Creating a New Document

When you start Word, you begin with a new document. Word labels this document as

Document1 in the Word title bar. Additional new documents can be created at any

time, which are successively named Document2, Document3, etc.

When you create a new, blank document, it opens with pre-existing settings and

formatting known as default settings. These default settings are saved in a template.

All documents are based on templates. Template defaults include margin settings, font

type and size, and text alignment.

A new Word document is based on the Blank Document template (also referred to as

the Normal template). This template is an all-purpose template used to create new

documents, as well as other templates.

Step-by-Step

1. File ribbon tab NewBlank document Create .

2. The Create button is located on the lower right side of the window.

3. Type your name.

4. Close the document.

Notice that a message box opens, asking if you want to save the changes to the

current document. Select No to close the message box and the document.

2.4 Opening a Template

Templates are predefined documents to get you started more quickly. Some of the

more commonly used templates are Memos, Fax cover sheets, business cards,

Calendars, Envelops, Fliers, Resumes, Timesheets, etc. You can use the templates to

reduce the time it takes to manually create them and provide a more professional look

to your documents. After you choose a template type, many styles or layouts become

available to you. Some are stored locally on your computer but many are downloaded

automatically from the internet.

Step-by-Step

1. File ribbon tab New button.

2. Click on the “New Resume Samples”

3. Click on the “College Graduate Basic Resume”.

SAMPLE

4. Click the Download button.

2.5 Opening an Existing Document

You can view or edit an existing document by opening it from a disk. You do not need

to remember the file name, because the Open dialog box displays a list of folders and

files in the current drive and folder. You can select the desired document from the list,

or you can type the name of the document you want to open.

If the document resides in a different drive or folder, you can use the Address bar

(located on the left side of the open dialog box) to select the correct location. The

folders and files residing in the selected location appear in the list box below the

Address bar. If necessary, you can resize the Open dialog box by dragging a border or

corner to view more of its contents.

While the Open button opens the selected document, the Open list provides

additional options. For instance, if you want to protect the original version of a

document from modifications, you can open a copy of a document or open the

document as read-only. You can also use this list to open and repair a damaged file.

The Files of type list in the Open dialog box enables you to open files created in other

programs. For instance, you can open a file created in WordPerfect in Word.

The Views button at the top of the Open dialog box allows you to change views.

Available views include Small Icons and Tiles

You can also have more than one document open at a time.

The Open dialog box

Step-by-Step

1. File ribbon tabOpen.

2. On the left side of the dialog box locate the data folder in the C: Drive

(C:\Data\Word2010-1).

3. Locate the file Chapter2-5 Start.docx.

4. Click Open button .

2.6 Scrolling using the Mouse

To view areas of the document that are not visible on the screen, you can scroll the

document using the mouse and scroll bars. The vertical scroll bar is located on the

right side of the document window and is used to scroll the document up or down.

SAMPLE


Page 17

You can click the up or down arrow in the vertical scroll bar once to move the

document up or down one line. If you click and hold the mouse button on an arrow,

the screen continues to scroll up or down until you release the mouse button. When

you drag the vertical scroll box, a ScreenTip indicates the relative page location of the

window display.

The horizontal scroll bar is located along the bottom of the document window and

scrolls the document to the left or right.

Scrolling does not change the location of the insertion point. Although you may be

viewing page 3 of your document, the insertion point can actually be located on

page 1. Any text you type is entered at the insertion point, regardless of the window

display. To reposition the insertion point, you can click in the desired location.

Step-by-Step

1. Click the down scroll arrow to scroll down one line in the document text.

2. Click the up scroll arrow to scroll up one line in the document text.

3. Click below the vertical scroll box to scroll the document down one screen.

4. Click above the vertical scroll box to scroll the document up one screen.

5. Click the Next page button to scroll forward one page.

6. Click the Previous page button to scroll back one page.

7. Click the Page Number box in the lower left corner on the status bar.

8. Choose the Go To tab.

9. Type 3 in the Enter page number box.

10. Press [Enter].

2.7 Moving using the Keyboard

The easiest way to move the insertion point (the blinking vertical bar) short distances

is to use the arrow keys. You can also use additional keys to move the insertion point

longer distances.

When entering text, you must first position the insertion point where you want to

insert the text. You must position the insertion point either to the left or right of an

existing character. You cannot place the insertion point directly on a character, past

the end of the document, or in an area that does not contain text or codes.

Step-by-Step

1. Press [Ctrl+Home] to move the insertion point to the beginning of the document.

2. Press the [Down] arrow key [ ] to move the insertion point down one line.

3. Press the [Up] arrow key [ ] to move the insertion point up one line.

4. Press the [Right] arrow key[ ] to move the insertion point one character to the

right.

5. Press the [Left] arrow key [ ] to move the insertion point one character to the left.

6. Press [End] key to move the insertion point to the end of the current line.

7. Press [Home] key to move the insertion point to the beginning of the current line.

8. Press [Ctrl+Right] key [Ctrl+ ] to move the insertion point to the next word.

9. Press [Ctrl+Left] key [Ctrl+ ] to move the insertion point to the previous word.

10. Press [Page Down] key to move the insertion point down one screen.

11. Press [Page Up] to move the insertion point up one screen.

12. Press [Ctrl+Page Down] to move the insertion point to the top of the next page.

SAMPLE


Page 18

13. Press [Ctrl+Page Up] to move the insertion point to the top of the previous page.

14. Press [Ctrl+End] to move the insertion point to the end of the document.

2.8 Selecting Text

There may be times when you want to perform a function (such as deleting or spell

checking) on a word, sentence, paragraph, or particular area of text. In order to

perform this function, you must first select the text. Selecting text expands the

insertion point to highlight a block of text. You can use the mouse or key

combinations to select text.

Another method of selecting text is to use the white area in the left margin called the

selection bar. The number of times you click in this area determines the amount of

text that is selected.

Selecting a new text block or repositioning the insertion point deselects the original

selection unless you use the [Shift] or [Ctrl] keys. The [Shift] key extends a selection

in a continuous block, whereas the [Ctrl] key allows you to select multiple, non-

contiguous text selections.

Step-by-Step

1. Scroll as necessary and double-click the word primary in the first sentence of the

body of the letter.

2. Click anywhere in the document.

3. Hold [Ctrl] and click in the sentence beginning Mike is proud...

4. Triple-click in the paragraph beginning Thank you...

5. Drag from the left of the letter T in the text The enclosed at the beginning of the

second paragraph to the right of the letter g in the word catalog.

6. Click before the letter T in the text Thank you in the first sentence of the first

paragraph.

7. Hold [Shift] and click after the second letter e in the word service at the end of

the second sentence of the first paragraph.

8. Hold [Ctrl] and drag to select United States and Canada at the end of the first

paragraph.

9. Press [Ctrl+A].

10. Click anywhere in the document.

11. Point in the selection bar (blank area in the left margin) to the left of the text

Thank you... and click once.

12. Point in the selection bar to the left of any line in the second paragraph beginning

The enclosed... and double-click.

13. Point in the selection bar to the left of any line and triple-click.

14. Click anywhere in the document to deselect the text.

15. Close the document without saving it.

2.9 Using Overtype Mode

Most editing is performed in insert mode. When typing in insert mode, existing text is

pushed to the right of the insertion point as you type. This mode is the default typing

mode.

When typing in overtype mode, each character typed replaces the character to the

right of the insertion point. Since the advent of Windows, the ability to select

SAMPLE


Page 19

unwanted text and replace the selection with the desired text has made overtype mode

redundant.

Perhaps in recognition of this, Word 2010, by default, disables the [Insert] key, so

Overtype mode is less accessible unless you make the effort to change the default

settings.

Step-by-Step

1. Continue using the previous document or create a new document.

2. File ribbon tabOptions.

3. Click Advanced.

4. Click Use overtype mode.

5. Click

6. Right-click anywhere on the Status bar at the bottom of the Word window.

7. Click on Overtype.

8. Enter some text and then edit it.

9. Change the mode back from Overtype mode to Insert mode by deselecting the

Use overtype mode check box in Word Options and try editing the text again.

10. When you have finished, ensure Overtype mode is deactivated and turn off the

mode status display on the Status bar.

11. Do not save the document.

3.1 Removing Characters

You can use the [Backspace] key or the [Delete] key to remove one character at a

time. The [Backspace] key removes the character to the left of the insertion point, and

the [Delete] key removes the character to the right of the insertion point.

Step-by-Step

3.2 Deleting Selected Text

There may be times when you need to delete a word, sentence, paragraph, or block of

text. To accomplish this task, you must first select the text you want to delete. Once

the text has been selected, it can be deleted with a single keystroke.

Step-by-Step

1. Double-click the second occurrence of the word Mike’s in the first sentence under

the Delivery heading.

2. Press [Delete]

3.3 Replacing Selected Text

You can replace selected text simply by typing new text. This option eliminates the

need to first delete text.

Step-by-Step

1. Double-click the word govern in the first paragraph.

2. Type cover

3.4 Cutting/Copying and Pasting Text

When editing a document, you may want to move or copy text, either within the same

document or between documents.

When you move text, it is deleted from its original location and placed into the new

location. The Cut and Paste features make it easy to move text.

If you want to duplicate text in another location, you can copy the text rather than

retype it. To duplicate text, you can use the Copy and Paste features. The Copy

feature is similar to the Cut feature, except that the Copy feature does not remove the

text from the original location.

When moving or copying text using the Cut, Copy, and Paste features, Word

automatically adds or removes spaces as needed, provided that the Use smart cut and

SAMPLE


Page 22

paste option is enabled. (This can be found by selecting the Office button, then

Options. Select Advanced. It is the last option listed under Cut, copy, and paste, and

is selected by default.) It is a good idea to display all the formatting marks when

moving and copying text.

Cut or copied text is placed on both the Windows Clipboard and the Office Clipboard,

where it is saved until you paste it to a new location. While the Windows Clipboard

can only hold a single item, the Office Clipboard can hold multiple items for pasting.

If you need to cut, copy, and paste multiple items, you can use the Office Clipboard.

After an item has been pasted, the Paste Options button appears in the document just

below the pasted text. You can use Paste Options to choose whether the source or

destination formatting should be applied, or you can press the [Esc] key to hide the

button.

You can also move and copy text using the keyboard. Press [Ctrl+X] to cut, [Ctrl+C]

to copy, and [Ctrl+V] to paste text.

Step-by-Step

1. Display the Home ribbon tab.

2. Hold [Ctrl] and click the last sentence Worldwide Sporting Goods has... in the first

paragraph under the Returns heading (make sure the paragraph mark is not

included).

3. Click

4. Click to the right of the period (.) after the word defective at the end of the second

paragraph under the heading Returns.

5. Click

6. Hold [Ctrl] and click the second sentence No exceptions... in the first paragraph

under the heading Returns.

7. Click

8. Click to the left of the text Specialty in the first sentence of the second paragraph

under the Returns heading.

9. Click

10. Press [Esc] to hide the Paste Options button.

3.5 Using the Paste Options Button

The Paste Options button, which appears after you have pasted a cut or copied item,

allows you to apply the desired formatting to the pasted item. For example, if you are

copying bolded text, you may want to paste the text without the bolding.

If you select the Keep Source Formatting option, the text is pasted with its original

formatting. When the Match Destination Formatting option is selected, the

formatting in the paste location is applied to the pasted text. The Keep Text Only

option pastes the text without its original formatting.

You can hide the Paste Options button by pressing the [Esc] key.

3.6 Using the Clipboard Pane

The Office Clipboard can store multiple items (including graphics) cut or copied from

other documents or Windows programs. The cut or copied items are then available to

be pasted into any open Office file.

The Office Clipboard is accessed by opening the Clipboard task pane. When you first

open the Clipboard task pane, it displays the last item(s) cut or copied to the

Windows Clipboard. As you continue to cut or copy items, they are collected on the

Clipboard task pane and remain available to all Office 2007 products.

For each of the cut or copied items, the Clipboard task pane displays an icon, and a

description of the item or a portion of the text, as applicable. You can click any item

to paste it at the insertion point, or you can use the Paste All button to paste all the

items at one time. Pointing to an item and clicking the drop-down arrow displays a

shortcut menu containing options to paste or delete the item.

After pasting text, the Paste Options button appears in the document, allowing you to

control the formatting of the pasted item.

Once you have finished a particular copying sequence, you can clear the Office

Clipboard of all items by clicking the Clear All button in the Clipboard task pane. In

addition, the Office Clipboard clears automatically when you close all Office 2007

programs.

Drag-and-drop editing allows you to move and copy text by using the mouse to drag

the text to the desired location. The results are the same as cutting or copying and

pasting, except that the cut or copied items are not saved to the Clipboard.

This feature is most useful when the text you want to cut or copy and the destination

location are both visible in the document area.

Step-by-Step

1. Drag to select the Breakage and Loss heading and body text.

2. Point to the selected text and drag it to the left of the Prices heading.

3. Drag to select the Subject to change, without notice. Sentence under Prices.

3.8 Using Undo and Redo

The Undo feature allows you to reverse the results of the previous command or

action.

Once you have used the Undo feature, the Redo feature becomes available. The Redo

feature allows you to restore the results of the command or action you reversed with

the Undo feature. Both features can be accessed on the Quick Access Toolbar.

The task to be undone or redone appears as part of the ScreenTip for the Undo and

Redo buttons. For example, if you have just deleted text, the ScreenTip for the Undo

button reads Undo Clear.

You can also use the list arrow on the Undo button to undo multiple actions. This

feature is useful if you want to reverse a previous action, but have performed a

number of actions subsequent to it. When you select an action to undo, however, all

the items performed after the selected action in the list are also reversed.

The Repeat feature is related to the Redo feature, but is only available when the Redo

feature isn’t available (i.e. when there is nothing that has been undone). You can use

the Repeat feature to duplicate the previous action.

You can undo and redo actions by using keyboard shortcuts. Press [CTRL+Z] to

undo or [CTRL+Y] to redo or repeat an action. Also, pressing [Esc] will cancel a

current action, without you needing to complete and then undo it.

Chapter 4 - Working with Document Views

4.1 Switching Document Views

Word provides several different ways in which you can view your document. These

views can be changed using the Document Views group in the View ribbon tab on the

Ribbon. You should select the view that allows you to work best with your document.

Print Layout view provides a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) view of

a document. Some commands, such as inserting text or working with headers and

footers, require you to work in this view. This view is the default view for a new

installation of Word.

Draft view is the best view for typing, editing, and formatting. This view is the one

that many Word users prefer.

Web Layout view is used for creating and editing web pages. Documents

in Web Layout view behave like browsers in that the text wraps to fit the window.

Outline view is useful in long documents that use a heading style. Outline view

allows you to expand and collapse outline levels so that only certain heading levels

appear. This view is helpful in a document containing many heading levels. The

Outlining tab automatically appears on the Ribbon in this view. The functions

available on this tab allow you to easily reorganize a document by moving

information and adjusting indent levels.

Full Screen Reading view is designed to make the task of reading documents

onscreen much easier using ClearType technology. When a document appears in Full

Screen Reading view, the layout of the document text does not appear as printed;

rather it is adjusted to fit the screen. Instead of displaying pages, the document is

divided into screens. If the document text is too difficult to read, you can enlarge or

decrease the size of the screen text. Resizing the screen text does not change the size

of the document text. Some editing options are available in Full Screen Reading

view, though not all. The Full Screen Reading view provides a convenient view for

tracking revisions.

In addition to these standard views, you can also use the Navigation Pane to view a

document. This view displays your headings in a resizable navigation pane to the left

of the open document and allows you to quickly navigate to any heading in your

document. The Navigation Pane is best used for long documents with multiple

headings or when you want to quickly view the structure of a document. Note: in

Office 2007 the Navigation Pane is called Document Map.

When you save a document, the selected view is also saved. The next time you open

the document, it will open in the same view.

SAMPLE

Step-by-Step

1. From the Student Data directory, open Chapter4-1 Start.docx.

2. Click View ribbon tab.

3. Click

4. Click Navigation Pane.

5. Scroll down the page. Notice that the text is presented with full formatting, but

without any white space, and the page break is marked. Also, notice that the

highlighted headings in the Document Map change based on the current position of

the insertion point.

6. Close the Navigation Pane.

7. Use the Document View buttons in the status bar to display the

Outline view.

8. Close the Outline view, then select the Print Layout view, if necessary.

4.2 Using Full Screen Reading View

You can read or edit a long document in Full Screen Reading view. This feature

removes the Ribbon so that you can see more of the document.

Full Screen Reading view in Word 2010 is similar to Reading Layout view in Word

2003 but with a number of new features. For example, although most of the editing

options are inactive in reading mode, some relevant editing options are available in

Full Screen Reading view should you need to make changes to your document. You

can also choose how you want to display your document and whether you want to be

able to type or edit text while reading.

The default Word when reading email is Full Screen Reading. To change this

uncheck the following option. File ribbon tabOptionsGeneral

4.3 Changing Document Magnification

You can magnify a document to make the text easier to read, or you can reduce the

magnification in order to see more of the document.

The magnification level can be set to a percentage of the actual size, or you can

choose to view the entire width of the page. Changing the magnification does not

change the document; it only changes how the document appears on the screen.

You can also use the Zoom controls on the status bar in the lower right corner to

change the magnification of a document.

4.4 Displaying/Hiding the Rulers

When you first create a new document in Word 2010, you will find that the document

area is relatively uncluttered. The default settings show the whole page in Print

Layout view with a vertical scroll bar down the right side. The horizontal and vertical

rulers are not displayed.

However, you can choose to display the rulers and then hide them again when they are

no longer needed. The horizontal ruler appears along the top of the document area and

the vertical ruler appears down the left side.

You can use the vertical ruler to set top and bottom margins and to place items at

specific locations in the document. You can use the horizontal ruler to set left and

right margins and indents, as well as add and remove tab stops.

3. Show / Hide the ruler by checking and unchecking the Rulers check box.

4. Click the View Ruler button Located in the side navigation (right) on the top

of the navigation bar.

4.5 Viewing/Hiding the Formatting Marks

Each time you press the [Enter], [Spacebar], or [Tab] keys on the keyboard, or

perform other actions such as inserting a line break, a formatting mark is inserted into

the document. You do not usually see these formatting marks; you only see the results

of the keystroke. When editing a document, it is sometimes useful to display the

formatting marks.

The keystrokes [Enter], [Spacebar], and [Tab] are represented by the paragraph

character, a dot, and a right arrow respectively. Any paragraph formatting such as

SAMPLE

2. Make sure you are in Print Layout view.

3. Show / Hide the formatting marks by checking and unchecking the

4.6 Opening Multiple Documents

You can open multiple documents in Word. You may want to open several documents

at one time to copy and paste text between them or to compare their contents.

When you open more than one document in Word, each document appears in its own

window. This is a Single Document Interface (SDI), meaning that each open

document has its own Ribbon and application window. In addition, each document

has a button on the taskbar. If a large number of documents are open, they may

display as a single button on the taskbar; as you move your mouse pointer over this

button a list of open document names will display for you to choose from.

You can use the [Shift] or [Ctrl] keys in the Open dialog box to select and open

multiple documents. When you use the [Shift] key, all files between the first and last

selected files are selected. When you use the [Ctrl] key, you can select non-adjacent

files.

4.7 Comparing Side by Side Documents

It is often helpful to compare two documents visually side by side. You may want to

compare the text and formatting between two versions of the same document or that

of different documents. The View Side by Side command tiles two open documents

vertically in a side by side arrangement and displays both Ribbons.

The View Side by Side feature can only compare two documents, both of which must

be open. If you have more than two documents open, Word assumes you want to use

the current document and prompts you to select a second document from the Compare

Side by Side dialog box.

You can return to a single window view by re-selecting the View Side by Side button

on either of the two Ribbons displayed.

Comparing two documents side by side
