WORKING WITH WORD 2016

                 In Word, we create documents by typing text. When the text reaches the end of a
                 line, the cursor automatically moves to the next line. While typing text, we use the
                 Spacebar, Enter, Caps Lock, Shift, Delete and Backspace keys frequently.

                 Let us learn how to create a new document in Word 2016.
                 Creating A New Document

                 Typing the Text


                 You can type the text into a document. Keep on typing the text, you will find that
                 the cursor automatically shifts to the next line. Press the Enter key only when you
                 want to start a new line or a paragraph.
                 Selecting Text


                 To make changes to the existing text, you need to select it.
                 To select the text, place the pointer at the required position and hold down the
                 left button of the mouse and drag the mouse over the text to be selected. Release
                 the mouse button. The selected text gets highlighted.
                 To select a single word, quickly double-click that word.

                 Deleting Text

                 If you have made a mistake while typing the text, you can easily remove the text by
                 using either the Backspace or Delete key.

                     For using the Backspace key, click to place the cursor the right of the text and
                    press the Backspace key.
                     For using the Delete key, click to place the cursor the left of the text and press
                    the Delete key.
