In This VIDEO ("Excel Tutorial for Beginners") -- Launching Word And Touring The Interface
Transcript

00:00 Before we can dive into the many powerful features and functions of Word 2013,
00:05 we first need to launch the program, and get comfortable in our environment,
00:08 so let's explore the user interface by first launching Word 2013.
00:12 If you're in Windows 8, and logged in already, that will give you a nice head start.
00:17 If you are in Windows 7, you can launch Word 2013 from there as well.
00:22 Now, what you see at the very beginning here is different from previous
00:25 versions of Word 2013.
00:27 This is our start screen,
00:28 and down on the left-hand side, you will see a color-coded area, a panel on the
00:32 left; for Word it's blue, Excel it's green, Power Point is orange, and so on.
00:37 And you'll see a list of your recently worked on files, so you have quick access
00:41 to them if you want to go back.
00:43 You also have a link to open other documents, allowing you to browse your
00:47 computer and online.
00:48 To the right, we have a number of templates, including the default template,
00:51 which is our blank document.
00:53 If you're looking for a template that does not show up here on this initial
00:57 screen, you can search for templates online,
01:00 and there are thousands to search through.
01:02 There are also some suggested searches to help you get started as well.
01:05 If you are logged in already to your Microsoft account, you'll see that
01:09 information here in the top right corner.
01:11 You can switch to another account if you have another account, or perhaps you
01:15 share this computer with others, and they'll want to switch to their own accounts.
01:19 Also, in the top right corner, you'll see a button for getting help -- F1 is still
01:23 the keyboard shortcut --
01:25 a minimize button, maximize, and a close button to close Word 2013 altogether.
01:31 Now, the default template is a blank document.
01:33 So, let's go there and just simply click once.
01:36 Now, this launches Word to the initial user interface that you will see once you
01:41 get past that start screen.
01:43 Over here on the left-hand side is our Navigation pane.
01:46 So, if your document has Headings, you want to go through Pages, or Results, you
01:51 can search quickly using this Navigation pane.
01:54 It can also be closed up using the Close button, and you can view it at any time
01:58 from the View tab on the ribbon.
02:00 Let's move up to the top of the screen.
02:02 We still have the quick access toolbar.
02:04 You will see some buttons there by default, like the Save, Undo, and you'll also
02:08 see a little repeat option here as well, and then the dropdown where you can
02:13 pick and choose what's going to show up on your Quick Access Toolbar.
02:16 Anything with a checkmark is already showing.
02:19 You can remove them by clicking them, or you can add items as well.
02:23 We'll go back to that in a later lesson.
02:26 Right below that is our ribbon, of course,
02:28 and you'll notice the very first tab,
02:29 the File tab, is actually going to take us to our backstage view.
02:34 So, let's go there now.
02:36 This takes us to a different view with a list of options down the left-hand
02:39 side, for opening, saving, creating new documents, printing, exporting, etcetera.
02:44 We can also access our Word options down here at the very bottom.
02:48 We can go back to recent documents, go to your SkyDrive account,
02:53 and with your Windows account, you do get some free space there, and of course,
02:57 you could purchase more if you needed to.
02:59 But it's a great way to save your documents to the cloud, so you have anytime,
03:02 anywhere access to them.
03:04 You can also browse your computer to open files there;
03:07 even add places, little shortcuts that will take you directly to other
03:11 locations if you wanted to.
03:13 There is also a Back button up here.
03:15 So, we can click the Back button to go back where we started before we clicked the File tab.
03:20 Next is the ribbon, and you'll see the Home tab is highlighted or selected by
03:24 default. So, we're looking at various sections here;
03:26 the Clipboard, Font Sections.
03:28 Notice that many of these have a little arrow icon in the bottom right corner,
03:32 so you can actually expand these, and get full dialog boxes that you might be
03:36 used to from previous versions in Microsoft Word.
03:40 You have quick access to Styles, but you can also go to the full Styles dialog
03:44 by clicking the arrow in the bottom right corner of that section.
03:48 Let's just quickly go through some of the tabs.
03:50 If you need to insert objects into your document, go to the Insert tab.
03:53 And again, it's broken up into categories;
03:55 so Pages, Tables, Illustrations, etcetera.
03:59 Under Design, we have a number of design options, and here's where you can get
04:03 into various document formatting options, and color schemes, etcetera.
04:08 Page Layout, References, Mailings, Review, and View at the very end; the View
04:13 Tab is going to show you your default view, which is our Print Layout view.
04:17 We'll be talking about the different views in an upcoming lesson,
04:20 but for now, just notice that the Print Layout is the default view, and
04:24 that's the default view you might be used to from previous versions of
04:27 Microsoft Word as well.
04:29 I will go back to the Home tab.
04:31 Also, if you have long documents, you're going to see scrollbars over here on
04:35 the right-hand side, so you can scroll through your pages.
04:38 If your document is too wide, the scrollbar will appear across the bottom; a horizontal one.
04:43 And then down at the very bottom, we have on the status bar some information.
04:46 You can see we're at Page 1 of 1;
04:49 0 words so far, so there is a Word count that shows up there.
04:52 And also, on the right-hand side, those View modes we just saw from the View tab
04:57 are available to us here.
04:58 So, we have Read Mode, the one that's selected, Print Layout, as well as Web Layout.
05:02 And then, we have our Zoom slider.
05:05 So, we can use the minus sign and the plus sign to zoom in and zoom out of our
05:10 documents, or we can click and drag the slider, and we'll always see the number
05:14 in a percent off to the right.
05:16 To bring it right back to the middle, or 100%, we just drag the slider, or use
05:21 the plus or minus signs to get there.
05:23 So, that's a quick tour of our user interface here in Word 2013.
05:27 Now that we are comfortable in our environment, it's time to do a little more
05:31 exploring, and start getting into some of the features and functions available
05:34 to us here in Word 2013.
