    Microsoft Office MICROSOFT OFFICE INTRODUCTION Microsoft Office is an office suite of desktop applications, servers and services for the Microsoft Windows and OS X operating systems. It was first announced by Bill Gates of Microsoft on August 1, 1988 at COMDEX in Las Vegas. Initially a marketing term for a bundled set of applications, the first version of Office contained Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel and Microsoft PowerPoint. Over the years, Office applications have grown substantially closer with shared features such as a common spell checker, OLEdata integration and Visual Basic for Applications scripting language. Microsoft also positions Office as a development platform for line-of-business software under the Office Business Applications brand. On 10 July 2012, Softpedia reported that Office is used by over a billion people worldwide. The current versions are Office 2013 for Windows, released on October 11, 2012; and Office 2011 for OS X, released October 26, 2010 On 24 October 2012, the RTM final code of Office 2013 Professional Plus was released to TechNet and MSDN subscribers for download. On 15 November 2012, the 60-day trial version of Office 2013 Professional Plus was released for download. All devices running Windows Phone and Windows RT come pre-installed with Office Mobile and Office RT, respectively. Office Mobile is also available for Android phones and the iPhone. A version of Office for the iPad was launched in March 2014. A web-based version of Office called Office Online, is also available COMPONENTS Word Microsoft Word is a word processor and was previously considered the main program in Office.

  • Getting Help in Microsoft Office
    LESSON 3 Getting Help in Microsoft Office In this lesson, you learn how to access and use the Help system in Microsoft Office. HELP: WHAT’S AVAILABLE? Microsoft Office supplies a Help system that makes it easy for you to look up information on application commands and features as you work in a particular Office application. Because every person is differ- ent, the Office Help system can be accessed in several ways. You can • Ask a question in the Ask a Question box. • Ask the Office Assistant for help. • Get help on a particular element you see onscreen with the What’s This? tool. • Use the Contents, Answer Wizard, and Index tabs in the Help window to get help. • Access the Office on the Web feature to view Web pages con- taining help information (if you are connected to the Internet). USING THE ASK A QUESTION BOX The Ask a Question box is a new way to access the Office Help sys- tem that Microsoft Office XP provides. It is also the easiest way to quickly get help. An Ask a Question box resides at the top right of every Office application. For example, if you are working in Excel and would like to get some help with Excel functions, type functions into the Ask a Question box. Then press the Enter key. A shortcut menu appears below the Ask a Question box, as shown in Figure 3.1. FIGURE 3.1 The Ask a Question box provides a list of Help topics that you can quickly access. To access one of the Help topics supplied on the shortcut menu, click that particular topic.
