Inserting Text
              ‘Inserting Text’ means adding text in a document. To insert:

              Step 1:  Position the cursor to the right of the character where the new text is to be inserted.
              Step 2:  Type the text. (While inserting the new text in a document, the existing text shifts to the right.)

              To Delete a Character or a Word or a Block of Text

              To delete text, follow the given steps:
              Step 1:   Position the cursor to the left of the character to be deleted or select the word or block of a text.

              Undo

              Undo is an option that helps to retrieve (bring back) previously made modifications in a document or reverse
              the previous action or a series of actions. To Undo:
              Step 1:  Select the  ‘Undo’ option  from
                      the ‘Edit’ menu. [Or]  Click on the   1
                      ‘Undo’ button from the  ‘Standard
                      Toolbar’.
              Step 2:  Click  on the ‘Undo’ drop-down
                      arrow from the Standard Toolbar.

              To Undo a series of actions, repeat the above
              for a number of times as required.
              The  recent  actions done  are listed  in the
              Undo drop-down list. Check the last action
              in the series to undo all the previous actions. (If the Undo command and the Undo button is dimmed, then that
              action cannot be reversed.)
              Redo

              The ‘Redo’ option helps to reverse the changes which were applied by ‘Undo’. It cancels the ‘Undo’ action. To
              Redo the previous action:
              Step 1:  Click on the ‘Redo’ option from the ‘Edit’ menu. [Or] click on the ‘Redo’ button from the Standard
                      Toolbar.

              Step 2:  Click on the ‘Redo’ drop-down arrow from the Standard Toolbar.


                                   1
















              To Redo a series of actions, follow the step repetitively for the required number of times.
