Undoing and redoing changes
When a document is open, you can undo the most recent change by
pressing Control+Z, or clicking the Undo icon on the Standard
toolbar, or choosing Edit > Undo from the menu bar.
The Edit menu shows the latest change that can be undone, as shown
in Figure 19.

Click the small triangle to the right of the Undo icon to get a list of all
the changes that can be undone (Figure 20). You can select multiple
changes and undo them at the same time.

After changes have been undone, Redo becomes active. To redo a
change, select Edit > Redo, or press Control+Y or click on the Redo
icon . As with Undo, click on the triangle to the right of the arrow to
get a list of the changes that can be reapplied.
Closing a document
To close a document, click File > Close.
You can also close a document by clicking on the Close icon on the
document window. In Windows XP, this button looks like the X in the
red box shown in Figure 21.
