Hey. Welcome back. We are now working in module 2 and this is the Getting Started with Word module. Now we’re in the first section and I want to show you how to create a new blank document and get some text typed in and then we can work with that text. So let me go ahead and I’m going to double click on Microsoft Word and show you what it looks like when you first open it up.

Here we go inside of Word. I’ve just double clicked to open it and this is the first screen that I get. What you’ll notice is that on the left it will show any recently used documents, but on the right is where you go to create your new document. So here’s where you create a new blank one.

Before we click on that I want to mention that you’ve got these other templates that if you wanted to start with one of these you could. Basically a template is just a Word document that’s already created and you can type over it or edit it any way you’d like. So you’ll notice there’s a calendar here, for example. There is a cover letter for a resume. Here’s a resume. Here’s an event menu. You can see several different things. An invoice, for example, some thank you cards, a brochure. But if you don’t like any of these and you want to start with a template then just go to the web and just do a search for Microsoft Word templates and see if you can find one you like and just use that one. That’s a lot easier sometimes than starting from scratch. But we’re actually going to double click on the blank document and start ours from the very beginning.

We’re in a blank document now and I want to go ahead and start typing here just to show you some things that Microsoft Word will do for you. One thing to keep in mind when you’re typing is that this is not a typewriter. So when you’re typing wherever you see your insertion point or you might call it the cursor blinking the text will always come out to the left of that. When you’re typing and you get all the way to the right margin don’t hit the Enter key. Just let the text wrap to the next line automatically. If you want it to move to the next line that’s when you’d hit the Enter key.

Now a couple things that Word will do for you. It will capitalize the beginning of a sentence. Now normally if you’re going to capitalize a word or a letter, for example, you’re going to hold the Shift key and hit that letter. But let’s just say I type the small letter here, like in the word Now. As soon as I hit the Spacebar it’s going to give me a capital N and that’s because Microsoft Word will automatically capitalize the beginning of a sentence. What it sees as the beginning of a sentence is the fact that I started next to the margin.

And also if it sees a period and a space the next word will automatically get a capital letter. So just remember that.
When you’re typing if you get something underlined in red it’s a spelling error. And it really just means it’s not in the computer’s dictionary. So sometimes your name may come up as being misspelled and it’s really not. If you get some green underlined that’s a grammatical error. Also sometimes you’re going to see words that it will spell correctly for you. Let me finish typing this and I’ll show you some of these. Now is the time. Notice I’m spelling Time, T-I-M-M-E. As soon as I hit that Spacebar did you see that it corrected the word for me? That’s because it’s part of a feature called AutoCorrect that we’ll talk about a little bit later. It’s got some words already in there that are commonly misspelled.
