Using microsoft word

Microsoft word… I think everyone has used this program from one time to another. I’ve been using this program for years, since the early days at school to get in those assignments, so by now I thought I was an expert at it. Until I did this tutorial task, I would say I was fairly confident at Microsoft word. I was doing well with everything until I got to the Advanced Exercise 1: Track Changes. This is when I started to struggle a bit. The only problem I really had with the task all up was just the directions on the day of the actual tutorial. Luckily some people from the class knew what was going on and helped me through it (the directions were just missing some steps). Any other problems were solved using the Microsoft help button (which was VERY useful). They gave a step by step guide to how to get my through my issues. As I was saying before, I found the earlier tasks simple but the advanced exercises I found a bit difficult. I had never needed to use them before so it was all new to me. This software probably won’t be useful for me now but in the future it may become an useful tool. I will eventually need to write up a cover letter and resume for an employer so this will help. This would be a good program for large companies by allowing them to save time.
