Microsoft Word

I am an avid user of Microsoft Word. It's a part of every document I do (I sometimes cut and paste my blogs on to Word Doc to use spell check...sshh, don't tell...). Exercise's one two and three included nothing I hadn't used before in Word; opening a new document, typing its contents then saving to a desired file. I've done bulleting, bold and italics. I felt it was pretty basic, but definitely a worthy starting point. Exercise two, however, opened up a bunch of tools I didn't know existed on Word. I've used Header and Footer for assessment pieces, but was completely unaware of the Letter and Mailing options which then extends to merging, inserting and track changes. I'd actually noticed this on a returned assessment piece from a tutor recently, but had no idea how she did it. Now I do!
It took me a while longer than I had expected, but I didn't experience any difficulty while going through the exercises, the Word Document was most obliging!
A very helpful and informative task, which I will no doubt show off to the technophobe parents.
