Okay welcome back. We’re in module 1 and we’re all the way down to section 3 where I want to take a few minutes and go over the screen itself with you so that when we do start working in module 2, which is the Getting Started module, you’ll know what you’re actually looking at and kind of where to go for different things. So let me go ahead and flip over to a blank document in Microsoft Word and we’ll get started with that.
Let’s start at the very top and work our way down.

The first thing I want you to notice is this bar that goes all the way across at the top which you’ll have in any program. And it’s actually called your Title Bar. Your title bar always tells you the name of the file that you’re working in and the name of the program you happen to be working in. Now in Word your generic files that you start creating are called Documents. You’ll see that once we save this a little bit later and give it a name this will change to whatever name we give the file. Let me just tell you a little bit about compatibility mode as well.

If you’re going to sharing this document with people who have an earlier version of Word or maybe they work outside of your organization and you don’t even know if they use Word then you might want to leave it in compatibility mode. And this way other people who are editing parts of the document that may or may not have some of the same types of things we have in this version won’t have any issues. And let me give you a good example.
In the last two versions we have a new font called Calibri right here. Well previous to that the font was Times New Roman. We didn’t have Calibri. So sometimes people couldn’t see the text if we had used the new font or they might have other issues with the file. So as long as you leave it in this compatibility mode then you’ll be good to go. And that option is under the Options for Word, which we’ll get to in another module when we go through that. So just know what compatibility mode is.

Now I want you to notice on the left side of your title bar you have your Quick Access Toolbar. You have several buttons that are here automatically but you can actually edit these. Here is your Undo. You’ll notice that I can’t use it right now because I haven’t done anything. But as soon as I do one thing I’ll be able to access this. Undo will be your best friend. If you make a mistake just undo it. Here’s your Redo. So if you go back too many when you’re undoing you can redo and bring them back.

Here’s your Email button. Now let me tell you what’s really, really nice about the Email button, which has been here by the way since the beginning of time and a lot of people didn’t realize that. But normally if I’m going to email something and by the way it only works with Outlook. Okay? But let’s say that I’m going to create this file and I want to attach it to an email and send it to someone. Normally you would create the file. You would go through the whole save process, close the file, you’d flip over and open Outlook, create a new message, attach the file. You can see there’s a lot of steps there. With this it lets you just click on this button. You will be inside of Outlook automatically in a message and your file will already be attached. All you’d have to do is address it and send it on.
