Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page vii HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL This manual was designed to be used as a reference. This is not a step-by-step tutorial. Our feeling is that you did not pay to have someone stand in front of class and read you something that you could do on your own.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page viii THE TOPIC TITLE WILL BE ON TOP USAGE: This part of the manual explains what the command is used for, how it works and other miscellaneous information.

Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 2 RUNNING MICROSOFT WORD USAGE: Microsoft Word (along with all of the other MS Office 2007 applications) can be accessed through the desktop or through the Start menu. If you have assigned a shortcut to your desktop, double-click on the Microsoft Office Word 2007 icon to run the application.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 3 THE WORD SCREEN After you start the program, you are taken into a blank untitled document where you may begin entering your text. The screen can be quite intimidat ing the first time you see it as there are so many items displayed on it.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 4 The far right side of this line contains three icons for minimizing , maximizing , and closing the document or program.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 5 The Ruler indicates the current margins and tab settings and is displayed across the top and along the far left side of the typed document. Click on (located towards the right side of the screen just above the vertical scroll bar) to toggle the ruler on/off.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 6 WORKING WITH HELP USAGE: All of the MS Office 2007 applications have an extensive help database that can assist you with virtually any topic you encounter while working with the program.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 7 Notice that a generic group of topics is listed in the help box when you first enter it. If you don’t see the topic you want help on, simply click in the text box provided to wards the top of the help window and then enter the topic (e.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 8 PRINTING HELP TOPICS If you find a help topic that you feel might be a good idea to print, you can have Word send that topic to the printer. This comes in handy when a screen lists several choices or perhaps lists various keyboard shortcuts.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 9 The second tab (labeled Options ) contains the following items: Print frames This section is only used for documents that have been divided into multiple frames and is not available at this time.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 10 SCREENTIPS A common problem most users enc ounter is not knowing what each tool on the screen represents. For example, the SAVE tool is displayed as a 3.5" diskette which some users do not immediately relate to saving a file.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 11 VIEWING OPTIONS USAGE: Word provides more than one way to view a document. The five views include Print Layout, Full Screen Reading, Web Layout, Outline, and Draft. The main difference between these views is your personal preference as to how you want to work with the document.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 12 Word places you in a new document as y ou enter the program. Although the screen may appear to be blank, glancing in the upper portion of the screen (title bar) reminds you that a document is being created.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 13 SAVING A DOCUMENT USAGE: After having typed a document, you will want to save it and assign a name that will allow you to easily find it again. If you click on the button, you will notice two options for saving a document: Save and Save As .
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 14 Along the left side of the dialog box, Word displays the Navigation Pane . This pane lists common/favorite locations (links) as well as a section for browsing your folders and drives. You can hide/display the “Folders List” section at the bottom of this area by clicking on the arrows.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 15 USING THE SPELL CHECKER USAGE: Before printing and sending a document out for others to read, you should always spell check it for typing errors. By comparing words in your file against the dictionary, Word can check your spelling and alert you of possible mistakes.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 16 The top section of the box contains the first unrecognized word - shown in red with its accompanying sentence so you can see how you were using the word within the document. The bottom of the dialog box contains suggestions for correcting the flagged word.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 17 This button is used to change the options associated with spelling and grammar features. This box provides a variety of options to customize how the spell checker works.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 18 PRINTING A FILE USAGE: You can choose what part of the document to print (such as the current page, multiple pages or the ent ire file). In addition, you can specify which printer to use and how many copies to print.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 19 You can also select what you actually want printed (e.g., the document, the summary screen, etc.), how many copies are needed and which pages you want printed. You can save the print settings to a file so that you can print at a later time and specify whether multiple copies should be collated.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 20 CLOSING A DOCUMENT USAGE: Although you can have several windows (documents) open at the same time, it is usually a good idea to close a file once you have saved and printed it if you no longer need to continue editing.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 21 CREATING A NEW DOCUMENT USAGE: When you first access Word you are automatically taken into a blank, untitled document where you may begin entering text.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 22 The window is divided into three sections. The far left section contains a list of available template categories that you can base your new document on. The middle section lists the templates available within the category you selected (from the left side of the window).

Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 25 In this latest version of Word using Windows Vista, the address bar is displayed a bit differently, as shown below: Notice that the path is displayed horizontally on the bar instead of vertically (as was the case in previous versions of Windows).
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 26 When ready, double-click on the name of the file you want to open or highlight the name and click on to open the file. If you click on the down arrow beside the button, you can choose from a list of options (such as opening the file as read- only or in your Web browser).
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 27 NAVIGATING WITHIN A DOCUMENT USAGE: When working with large files y ou should know the quickest ways of moving from page to page and from one area to another. Z Moves one line up. Y Moves one line down.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 28 Directly beneath the vertical scroll bar are two icons. The top one moves to the previous page while the bottom icon moves to the next page.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 29 DELETING TEXT USAGE: When a block of text is no longer needed, you can easily remove it. ¢ Deletes the character to the left of the cursor. Works like a correctable backspace on a typewriter. = Deletes the character to the right of the cursor.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 30 OOPS!! UNDELETING TEXT USAGE: If you ever delete a portion of a document by mistake, Word has the ability to undo that deletion. Undo instructs the program to disregard the last action (whether it was deleting, copying, or applying format changes).
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 31 APPLYING ATTRIBUTES USAGE: As you enter and edit text, you can change its appearance to add emphasis and make the document easier to read.

Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 38 RUNNING MICROSOFT EXCEL USAGE: Just as you saw when running Word, Excel can be accessed directly through the desktop or from the Start menu (located on the taskbar at the bottom of the screen).
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 39 THE EXCEL SCREEN After you start the program, you are taken into a blank untitled workbook where you may begin entering your data.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 40 The far right side of this line contains three icons for minimizing , maximizing , and closing the workbook or program.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 41 The next section across the top of the screen lists the columns and rows within the current workshee t. As mentioned, columns are lettered and rows are numbered. The first 26 columns are lettered A through Z.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 42 To the left of the zoom area are three View Icons . These are used to change the current display (Normal, Page Layout, and Page Break Preview).
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 43 NAVIGATING WITHIN A WORKSHEET USAGE: Excel offers both keyboard and mouse methods for moving: Q Moves pointer left one column. R Moves pointer right one column. Z Moves pointer up one row. Y Moves pointer down one row.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 44 CHANGING THE WORKBOOK VIEW USAGE: By default, you are placed in “Normal” view which simply displays the worksheet. However, if you’d prefer to see the headers, footers, and rulers you can switch to “Page Layout” view.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 45 ENTERING INFORMATION USAGE: Excel allows you to type in words, numbers or formulas. Click in the cell you want to store the data in and then simply begin typing the word(s), number or formula. If you make a mistake and want to start over, press X .
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 46 EDITING DATA USAGE: If you type something in a cell and then decide later to change or correct it, place your pointer on the cell to edit and reactivate it by selecting from one of the two methods mentioned below: Double-Click on the cell you want to edit.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 47 DELETING UNWANTED DATA USAGE: Although you can type over exis ting data (simply replacing it with the new information), there may be times when you would like to clear a cell out so that nothing is st ored in it.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 48 CLEARING A CELL Excel not only allows you to clear the contents of a cell (the actual data), but also the format and/or comments attached to the cell.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 49 OOPS! UNDOING THE DELETION Excel has the capability of remembering the last several actions performed and allows you to change your mind about most changes you have made. Click on this tool (located towards the top left corner of your screen) to undo the last action.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 50 WORKING WITH BLOCKS USAGE: Many commands and operations require that you work on more than one cell at a time. While you may not require the entire worksheet, you may need to work on a Block of cells.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 51 MOUSE SHAPES When working with Excel, it is very important to keep an eye on the mouse pointer as it changes shape depending on its current function, as discussed below: If the mouse is in the shape of a thick cross, it can be used to select a single cell or block of cells for editing purposes.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 52 SELECTING A BLOCK OF CELLS Place the mouse in the middle of t he first cell. The pointer's shape should be a thick cross-hair. Click and drag to highlight. To select an entire column or row, click on the letter of the column or the number of the row.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 53 ADJUSTING COLUMN WIDTH & ROW HEIGHT USAGE: Sometimes cell entries are too l ong to fit into the standard width columns. Text will appear to "spill" over into adjacent cells as long as those cells are empty.

Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 57 THE AUTOSUM FEATURE Excel can make somewhat of an intelligent decision on its own and determine which cells of a row or column should be "summed".
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 58 USING THE AUTO FILL USAGE: Excel offers a quick way to fill formulas from one cell to many within the worksheet. This command instructs Excel to copy cells from one row/column in a selection to adjacent cells of the selection.
Microsoft Office 2007 ©2007 EZ-REF Courseware Page 59 When working with numbers, however, you must enter two cells of data so that Excel knows what increments the numbers should be increased by each time.
