Getting Acquainted with the Word Interface
You may be new to Word, but if you've used any other Windows program, you'll recognize most of the screen elements. The screen always contains a title bar, menu bar, toolbar, and control buttons. You'll find that the nice thing about a Windows program is that after you learn one application, you have a head start on the next one.
In addition to the common Windows application elements, Word xp also has some unique features to help you get your work done faster.
