Microsoft Word or MS-WORD (often called Word) is a graphical word processing program that users can type with. It is made by the computer company Microsoft. The purpose of the MS Word is to allow the users to type and save documents.
Similar to other word processors, it has helpful tools to make documents.
- Spelling & grammar checker, word count (this also counts letters and lines)
- Speech recognition
- Inserts pictures in documents
- Web pages, graphs, etc.
- Tables
- Displays synonyms of words and can read out the text
- Prints in different ways
Mail Merge is a powerful tool for writing and sending a
personalized letter or e-mail to many different people at the same time. You
can also use it to create envelopes or labels with each recipient' information.
Mail Merge imports data from another source such as Excel and then uses that
data to replace placeholders throughout your message with the relevant
information for each individual you are messaging. You can use it to quickly
create personalized messages for hundreds of people at once.
To
use a mail-merge system, you first store a set of information, like a list of
names and addresses, in one file. In another file, you write a letter,
substituting special symbols in place of names and addresses (or whatever other
information will come from the first file).
Step two
E-form
An e-form (electronic form) is a computer program version of
a paper form. Aside from eliminating the cost of printing, storing, and
distributing per-printed forms, and the wastage of obsolete forms, e-forms can
be filled out faster because the programming associated with them can
automatically format, calculate, look up, and validate information for the
user. With digital signatures and routing via e-mail, approval cycle times can
be significantly reduced. With electronic submission of completed forms, you
can eliminate the cost of re keying data and the associated errors.
Compared to paper forms, e-forms allow more focus on the
business process or underlying problem for which they are designed (for
example, expense reporting, purchasing, or time reporting). They can understand
the roles and responsibilities of the different participants of the process
and, in turn, automate routing and much of the decision making necessary to
process the form.

Quick Referencing
This tab handles tables of contents, footnotes,
bibliographies, indexes and similar material. It also lets you insert a
"Table of Authorities," which sounds like something straight out of a
Soviet bureaucracy but in fact is a list of references used in legal documents.
Step one
Copy the contents of the file into your Microsoft Word
bibliography style directory. This directory can be found in different places
depending on your machine and the software it is running. Two typical places
for Windows are:
program files\Microsoft Office\Office12\Bibliography\Style
<winword.exe directory>\Bibliography\Style
Step Three
Open Word and navigate to “References” and use the “Style”
drop down menu to select the style you want. See the image below:

Automated citations should save you a lot of time and may help to relieve the
nausea that some of us feel when referencing our writing.
