Introduction

In the process of its development, human society has learned to manage various types of energy, and has entered the era of information.

Until the middle of the 19th century, when the processes of collecting and accumulating information were dominant, the means of informatization were pen, ink and paper; the primitive means of informatization of technology at the end of the 19th century were replaced by mechanical ones.

Only many years later, the information processes of storing and transmitting information were supplemented by processing processes. This made possible the emergence in the second half of the 20th century of information technology as a computer, which laid the foundation for information technology.

MSWORD owes a lot to "Bravo" - a word processor with an original graphical interface.

The first release of WORD for MS-DOS took place at the end of 1983, it was poorly received by the market.

However, the version released in 1985 was widely used.

WORD for DOS was the first text editor capable of displaying text markup while editing.

The first version of WORD for WINDOWS, released in 1989, used standard keyboard shortcuts.

Subsequent versions added features beyond a simple test editor.

1. Text editors. Purpose and classification

A text editor is an application program that allows you to create text documents, view, modify, print, and edit them.

And also a text editor allows you to:

view the contents of documents on the screen

print a document

change document format

A modern text editor is a software product that provides a PC user with the means to create, process and store documents of equal complexity.

Recently, text editors have been supplanted by word processors, which allow not only typing "clean", unformatted text, but also formatting it: arbitrarily placing it on a page, highlighting it with fonts, and so on.

Classification:

1. Text editors - designed to create editing of simple texts and program texts.

2. Document editors - designed to work with documents structurally consisting of nested sections, pages, paragraphs, and so on.

3. Editors of scientific texts - provide preparation and editing of scientific texts containing a large number of mathematical formulas, graphs, etc.

4. Publishing systems - used to prepare large complex documents (books, albums, magazines, etc.).

The word processor is always in one of two modes - insert or replace.

2. Working with a text editor

Input is the main mode of operation of a text editor.

using the keyboard.

The main modes of operation of text editors:

typing

text editing

spelling control

search by context and replace

working with files

text printing

The text typed on the keyboard is displayed in the editor's desktop on the screen. The place of active influence on the working field is marked with a cursor moving across the screen.

Cursor - a short, usually blinking line, showing the position of the working field, in which the input character or text element will be placed.

Editing is making changes to the typed text.

Editing is performed when the user issues text editor commands.

To delete one or more characters, use the Del and Backspace keys.

The selected fragment can be:

lowercase

linear.

Formatting is the ability of a word processor to style a document.

A paragraph is a piece of text, the input process of which ended by pressing the Enter key.

3. Working with text

When working with a text editor, the screen contains information about its current state - "Status Bar".

Any text editor is characterized by the presence of editor control on the "Command Menu" screen. The menu can have both text and pictographic form.

Operations performed on a document include:

1. creating a new document

2. assigning a unique name to the document

3. typing all text on the keyboard

5. saving the document

6. copying a document from RAM to external memory

7. deleting a document

8. remove the created or loaded document from the screen

9. printout of a document - creation of a hard (paper) copy of a document.

Save operation - writes the edited document in RAM to disk for permanent storage.

Powerful word processors have the ability to merge documents.

To complete this procedure, you must have:

main document containing permanent information;

source document for storing variable information.

4. MSWord text editor interface

MSWORD is an efficient and full-featured text editor that provides all the tools you need to create various types of documents.

Microsoft Word interface

Scrollbars are located at the right border and at the bottom of the Microsoft Word window.

The status bar is the horizontal bar below the document window. It displays information about the operations performed, the position of the cursor, and other contextual information.

The buttons on the Standard toolbar speed up the operations of creating, opening and saving a file, as well as editing a document.

The format bar buttons allow you to format characters and paragraphs.

5. Display the document in the window

Word allows you to view a document in a window in several modes. "Normal" mode is set by default when the window is opened.

The "electronic document" mode is the optimal mode for viewing electronic documents on the screen.

Layout View - allows you to see the page with pictures, multi-column text, footnotes, headers and footers, and margins as it will be printed.

To view two parts of one document at the same time - divide the window into two areas. In each of the areas of the window, you can scroll the document independently of the other area, you can use different scales and viewing modes.

To see all open documents at once, select the Arrange All command

6. Editing and Formatting Text in MSWord

Editing refers to making any changes to the typed text.

There are several ways to change the text color:

Highlight the text you want to change. On the Home tab, in the Font group, click the Text Color button and choose the color you want.

To perform most text processing operations, the edited fragment should first be selected. After selecting a fragment, the operation can be performed in the following ways:

1. using menu commands;

2. using the commands of the context menu;

3. using the buttons on the "Standard" toolbar;

4. using the left mouse button;

5. using the right mouse button;

In order to copy a piece of text to another point in the document, you must:

1. Select a piece of text.

2. On the "Home" tab, select the "Copy" command or click on the "Copy" command button. As a result, a copy of the selected fragment will be placed on the Windows clipboard.

3. Using the cursor keys, place the cursor at the point in the document after which the fragment copied to the clipboard in the previous step should be inserted.

4. On the "Home" tab, select the "Paste" command or click on the "Paste" command button.

The format of printed text refers to the arrangement of lines, margins and page sizes.

Format parameters are set before entering the test, and then automatically maintained by the text editor.

It is also possible to change the format of the text. To do this, set new options and select the Reformat Text command.

Formatting text is to change its appearance, by changing the alignment, using different fonts and their styles.

FORMULA AND CALCULATIONS

The Formula Editor can be run as a standalone program or from within Word.

To start the Formula Editor from Word, you must place the input cursor at the place in the document where the formula should be inserted. Then call the command An object from the menu Insert, in the Create New section of the dialog box, in the Object type field, click on Microsoft Equation 3.0 and click OK.

If the toolbar has a formula sign (a button with the ■ icon), you can load the Formula Editor by clicking this button.

After launching the Formula Editor, its application window opens, similar to the Word window. This window, along with known ones, contains special elements that are necessary for efficient work with formulas, for example, symbols menu And template menu.

Below the menu bar is math symbol menu, in it you can select the necessary symbols and enter them into formulas. To do this, you need to fix the mouse pointer on the menu item (field) containing the desired symbol. The full list of symbols available in this field will open. The symbol is selected with the mouse pointer (click).

Via template menu, the formula depicts mathematical operations and such complex objects as an integral, a matrix, expressions in brackets, etc. Inserting templates is done in the same way as inserting mathematical symbols.

When you change the font size, the size of all characters of the same type changes. On the menu Size using the command Define You can set the font size for five different formula elements. The element resizing dialog contains five sizing fields and a preview field.

To change the font size of elements of a certain type, fix the mouse pointer on the field in which the element size is set. The preview field then displays the characters to be changed. Now you can set the desired font size. Typically, the unit of measure is points. To confirm the settings, just press the OK button. .

Command Style > Define allows for formatting individual formula components. For each of the components of the formula, its own design style (font and style) is set.

Launching the MS Graph editor. Call command An object from the menu Insert, in section Create dialog box in the field Object type click on an element Microsoft Graph 5.0 and press the OK button. If the MS Graph editor sign is displayed on the toolbar (button with iconAND)h You can download the MS Graph editor by clicking this button.

After launching the MS Graph editor, its application window opens. It contains a menu, a chart that the editor offers, and a table. In the menu, you need to select the desired type of chart and enter data into the table to build a chart. All data entered into the table is reflected in the chart. Switching between a table and a diagram is a mouse click on the object you need (table or diagram) or on the toolbar button.


To create charts, you need to fill in the table. The top line of the table should contain numbers of quarters, years or other information. To select a cell, you should fix the cursor on it, after which it will take the form of a large cross. When entering characters from the keyboard, the old contents of the cell are automatically destroyed. New characters are entered into the cell in place of the old ones. To select a font, call the Format menu command Font. The transition to the next cell is carried out using the cursor keys or the mouse. After the transition, the contents of the previous cell are reflected in the chart.


The chart at any time corresponds to the data in the table. The user can change the chart type at will. To do this, in the menu Types select the type of chart (linear, histogram, pie, scatter, etc.) and in the dialog box that opens Types diagrams mark the desired diagram. Complete chart selection by pressing the button OK. Font correction may be required. To change the font of the text in the diagram, double-click on it. In the opened window Region Attributes perform a button click Font. After that, the user will be able to set the font, size, style, and so on.

To insert the resulting diagram into a Word document, click outside the diagram and table, the diagram will be inserted into the Word document. By marking the frame, you can change its size directly in the document.
