Chapter 1: Hello, Word!
Looking at Word
Like all programs in Windows, Word offers its visage in a program window.
It’s the electronic version of a blank sheet of paper — and more. It’s the more
part that you might find daunting. The dee-dads and goo-bobs that surround
the Word program window all have specific names that you need to know to
get the most from the program. Figure 1-1 shows the big picture.
