How Do I Use

Advanced Word
Tools to Develop
Content?
What is
Microsoft
Word?
Microsoft Word is a word processing
application developed by the Microsoft
Corporation. It lets you create documents
for your assignments, term paper or research
work, letters, and certificates, or just edit
any text document.
References:
Citations and
Bibliography
In writing a research paper, you will
most likely get information from the
internet. This gives you easy access to
needed ideas and information but puts
you at risk of committing plagiarism.

Checking
Spelling and
Grammar

about your spelling and grammar.
One of the features of Word serves to

error until you have reviewed
them all. After reviewing all the
errors, a dialog box will appear
confirming that the spelling and
grammar check is complete. Click
OK.

4. If no suggestions are
given, you can manually
type the correct spelling
in your document.
Automatic Spelling
and Grammar
Checking
Word automatically check your document
for spelling and grammar errors, so you
are informed that there is an error without
running a separate check. These errors are
indicated by colored, wavy lines.
The red line
indicates that the
word is
misspelled.
The blue line indicates that there is a
grammatical error, including misused
words.
To correct spelling errors:
1. Right click the underlined word.
2. Select the correct spelling from the list of
suggestions.
3. The error will be placed by the correct word.
To correct grammar errors:
1. Right click the underlined word or phrase.
2. Select the correct spelling or phrase from the
list of suggestions.
3. The error will be placed by the correct phrase.
Finalizing and
Protecting
Documents
Document Inspector
Whenever you create or edit a document,
certain personal information may be added
to the file automatically. You can use the
Document Inspector to remove this type of
information before sharing a document with
others.
Protecting your document
By default, anyone with access to your
document will be able to open, copy, and
edit its content unless you protect it. Word
has several ways to protect a document; it
all depends on your needs.
Tracking
Changes
When someone asks you to proofread a
hardcopy document, the first thing that you
might do is to get a red pen to cross out
sentences, mark misspellings, and add
comments in the margins. Fortunately, Word
allows you to do all of these things
electronically using these two features – Track
and Comments.
Every change you make to the document will
appear as a colored markup when you turn on
Track Changes. If you are going to remove or
delete text, it will not disappear; instead, the
text will just be crossed out by a markup, this
is how Word allows you to see edits before
saving the changes permanently.
Comments
There are times when you want to add a
comment to provide feedback instead of
changing a document.
