1.0 INTRODUCTION INTO MICROSOFT WINDOWS

Microsoft Windows is the application that runs all of your programs. It is your computer's operating system. Windows 98 stores files in items called Folders on different Drives. This tutorial will help you get started with Microsoft Windows 98 and may solve some of your problems, but it is a very good idea to use the Help Files that come with Windows 98, or go to Microsoft's web site located at http://www.microsoft.com/windows98/

INTRODUCTION TO WINDOWS 98 This chapter presents an overview of the Microsoft Windows 1000 operating system. The information contained in this chapter is based on an early-release beta version of Windows 98. 1.1 OBJECTIVES This lesson introduces you to the family of Windows 98 products. It explains the renaming of the Microsoft Windows NT version 5.0 operating system, some of the key differences between these products, and the environment for which each product is designed. OVERVIEW OF WINDOWS 98 Windows 98 is a multipurpose operating system with integrated support for client/server and peer-to-peer networks. It incorporates technologies that reduce the total cost of ownership and provides for scalability from a small network to a large enterprise network. Total cost of ownership (TCO) is the total amount of money and time associated with purchasing computer hardware and software, and deploying, configuring, and maintaining the hardware and software 1.2 GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE A graphical user interface (GUI) is a type of user interface which allows people to interact with electronic devices like computers, hand-held devices (MP3 Players, Portable Media Players, Gaming devices), household appliances and office equipment. As opposed to traditional text-based interfaces, it presents graphical icons, visual indicators or special graphical elements called “widgets�. Often the icons are used in conjunction with text, labels or text navigation to fully represent the information and actions available to a user. But instead of offering only text menus, or requiring typed commands, the actions are usually performed through direct manipulation of the graphical elements.

The term GUI is historically restricted to the scope of two-dimensional display screens with display resolutions capable of describing generic information, in the tradition of the computer science research at Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) (formerly Xerox PARC and still a subsidiary of Xerox).The term GUI earlier might have been applicable to other high-resolution types of interfaces that are nongeneric, such as videogames, or not restricted to flat screens, like volumetric displays 1.3

MULTITASKING In computing, multitasking is a method by which multiple tasks, also known as processes, share

common processing resources such as a CPU. In the case of a computer with a single CPU, only one task is said to be running at any point in time, meaning that the CPU is actively executing instructions for that task. Multitasking solves the problem by scheduling which task may be the one running at any given time, and when another waiting task gets a turn. The act of reassigning a CPU from one task to another one is called a context switch. When context switches occur frequently enough the illusion of parallelism is achieved. Even on computers with more than one CPU (called multiprocessor machines), multitasking allows many more tasks to be run than there are CPUs. Operating systems may adopt one of many different scheduling strategies, which generally fall into the following categories: 

In multiprogramming systems, the running task keeps running until it performs an operation that requires waiting for an external event (e.g. reading from a tape) or until the computer’s scheduler forcibly swaps the running task out of the CPU. Multiprogramming systems are designed to maximize CPU usage.

In time-sharing systems, the running task is required to relinquish the CPU, either voluntarily or by an external event such as a hardware interrupt. Time sharing systems are designed to allow several programs to execute apparently simultaneously.

In real-time systems, some waiting tasks are guaranteed to be given the CPU when an external event occurs. Real time systems are designed to control mechanical devices such as industrial robots, which require timely processing.

1.4

USING START MENU The Start Menu and Start Button are user interface elements in the Microsoft Windows line of

operating systems, which serve as the central launching point for application and tasks. Traditionally, the Start Menu provided a customizable nested list of programs for the user to launch, as well as a list of most recently opened documents, a way to find files and get help, and access to the system settings. Later enhancements via Windows Desktop Update included access to special

WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE

folders like “My Documents,” “Favorites” (browser bookmarks), etc. Windows XP’s Start Menu was expanded to encompass various My Documents folders (including My Music and My Pictures), and transplanted other items like My Computer and My Network Places from the Windows desktop. Technically, the Start Menu is not required, as all programs and files can be opened by navigating to them in the Windows Explorer interface. However, the Start Menu provides a much easier and consolidated way to open programs, even for experienced users. Microsoft uses the Start Menu more in each version of Windows as a way to shield novice users from the complexities of the operating system. For example, in Windows XP, the root, Program Files and Windows folders are hidden from the user by default, and access to programs is expected to be achieved through the Start Menu. On Windows operating systems before Windows Vista, and also in Windows Vista’s “Windows Classic” theme, the Start Button consists of the word “Start” and the Windows Logo. In Windows Vista’s new themes, the word “Start” has been replaced by a blue Windows “orb” logo.

Microsoft Windows 

Drives o

Drives are devices used to store data. Most computers have at least two drives: a hard drive C:\ (Which is the main means of storage) and a floppy drive (which stores smaller volumes of data (1.44 Mb) on 3.5" disks - floppy disks). The hard drive is typically designated the C:\ drive and the floppy drive is typically designated the A:\ drive. If you have an additional floppy drive, it is typically designated the B:\ drive. You will also have network drives on your computer, depending on authorization and rights of each user. This drives will typically be labeled F:\ or H:\ or G:\

Folders o

Folders are used to organize the data stored on your drives. Think of your drives as filing cabinets. You want to sort your filing cabinets with folders that store different files. The files that make up a program are stored together in their own set of folders. You will want to organize the files you create in folders. You will probably want to store files of a like kind in a single folder.

Directory o

A Directory is the path given to a folder on a drive. For example a text file called Phone Numbers is located in the My Documents directory on the C:\ drive. It would therefore read "C:\My Documents\PhoneNumbers.txt"

File Extensions o

File Extensions are the ending letters associated with a file and an application that it can be manipulated in. This way Windows 98 knows to tell which program to open the file you

WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE

want to manipulate. For example a text file has an extension of .txt, so a text file created in Notepad called Phone Numbers would look like this PhoneNumbers.txt ... You do not have to assign a file extension to a file that you create. The program you use will automatically do this for you. All you need to do is give it a filename. Some other common extensions are as follows:

doc = Microsoft Word Document

.xls = Microsoft Excel Document

.ppt = Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation

.mdb = Microsoft Access Database

.bmp = Windows Bitmap Picture

.wav = Sound File

.html or .htm = Internet Document

Icon o

An Icon is a graphic image. Icons help you execute commands quickly. Commands tell the computer what you want the computer to do. To execute a command by using an icon, double-click on the icon.

Windows Desktop When starting your computer, the desktop is the first thing you. The Bay City Public Schools image is displayed on the screen with icons for various programs. The desktop is the area you work in.

1.5 WINDOWS EXPLORER A folder is a “container” in which you store documents (files). This is true of manila folders in filing cabinets as well as folders on your computer’s hard disk. Your hard disk is home to many folders. Most of them are system folders and program folders that contain files used by Windows XP and other programs on your computer. There’s really nothing in those folders for the average person to be tinkering with. In addition to all those system and program folders, your copy of Windows has three folders set aside for your personal use. You use these folders to store your own documents. Recall that a document can be anything you might otherwise print on paper, such as typed text and photographs. Though a file that you can “play”, like a song or video, is also a document. The three folders that Windows creates for you are named My Documents, My Music, and My Pictures. They get their names from the fact that you use them as follows: 

My Music: Use this folder to store music you copy to your computers.

My Pictures: Use this folder to store pictures, such as those you get from a camera or scanner, or from the Internet.

My Documents: Use this folder to store other types of documents you save, such as typed text or spreadsheets.

Icons that represent folders that are currently closed tend to have a manila file folder emblem as part of their icon, as in the examples shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1: Examples of folder icons Computer folders aren’t exactly like manila file folders, because a computer folder can contain any number of subfolders within it. For example, your My Music and My Pictures folders are actually contained within your My Documents folder. You can see that for yourself by opening your My Documents folder. To do so, click the Start button and choose My Documents from the right side of the Start menu. Your My Documents folder opens up onto the desktop. From its title bar, you know that the main pane below is displaying the contents of your My Documents folder, as in the example shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2: My Music and My Pictures folders are contained within My Documents folder The icons named My Music and My Pictures are in the My Documents folder. So why put My Music and My Pictures “inside” My Documents. Because, technically anything you might want to view on the screen, or print, is a document. A letter you type, a video you download, a spreadsheet you create and they’re all documents too. Music and pictures are just somewhat unique as documents. So Windows sets aside a couple of subfolders for those particular types of folders.

WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE

Of course, the My Music icon in Figure 2 represents your My Music folder, and the My Pictures icon represents your My Pictures folder. You can open either folder by double-clicking its icon. If you doubleclick the icon for your My Music folder, you’ll be viewing the contents of your My Music folder, rather than your My Documents folder. You’ll see that folder’s name in the title bar, and its contents in the main pane, as in the example shown Figure 3. (Your My Music folder will contain different icons). Note that the Back button in the toolbar is also enabled now.

Pictures icon, you’ll be viewing the contents of your My Pictures folder. That folder’s name will appear in the title bar, and the icons in the main pane will represent files and/or folders in your My Pictures folder. Clicking the Back button while viewing the contents of your My Pictures folder, will again take you back to your My Pictures folder. As you view the contents of various folders, the current folder’s name appears in the title bar, and the icons change to show the contents of the current folder. But some things don’t change (or at least, not much) as you go from folder to folder. The things that don’t change much are the title bar, menu bar, toolbar, and Explorer bar, all pointed out in Figure 4.

Menu bar: Provides access to pull-down menus that provide commands for working with folders and files.

Toolbar: Provides quick one-click access to commonly used commands.

Explorer bar: Provides options for using the contents of the current folder, as well as quick links to other places.

None of the above-listed components is part of the folder you’re viewing at the moment. Instead, they all belong to a program named Windows Explorer. If you’re viewing this on the screen, and Figure 5 has had enough time to download, Figure 5 will show you an animation of going from folder-to-folder. Notice how the menu bar and toolbar don’t change at all, and the title bar and Explorer bar change very little, as one goes from one folder to another.

To recap, a folder is a container in which you store files, and Windows Explorer is a program that allows you to navigate around through your folders. Windows Explorer is like other programs in that it has a title bar, menu bar, and toolbar at the top. It also has a taskbar button when it’s open. You can move, size, minimize, and maximize Windows Explorer’s window just like any other programs. Windows Explorer is unique among programs in only a couple of ways: 

You really don’t need to go through the Start menu to start Windows Explorer. Just open any folder, and Windows Explorer starts automatically.

Unlike most programs, Windows Explorer doesn’t show its own name in the title bar. Rather, it shows the name of the folder who’s contents are currently displayed in the main pane.

Finally, be aware that there are two Windows XP programs that have the word “Explorer” in their names: 

Windows Explorer: A program that allows you to explore the contents of your own computer.

Internet Explorer: A program that allows you to explore Web pages outside of your computer on the Internet.

This mini-tutorial has been strictly about Windows Explorer. Internet Explorer is actually a Web browser. You don’t use Internet Explorer to explore the contents of your own computer at all. You use Windows Explorer to explore the contents of your own computer. 1.6 TYPES OF FILES: PROGRAM FILES: Program files contain the programs that your computer runs. Program files usually have an EXE (or) COM Extension. Lotus 1-2-3, For Example, is stored in a file called 123.EXE. SPECIALIZED DATA FILES: Microsoft Word assigns a DOC extension to its document files. UNFORMATED TEXT FILES: MS-DOS, use a system called the American Standard code for information interchange (ASCII) to represent text. Files of this type often have a .TXT extension

WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE

16

SYSTEM FILES: System files contain information about your hardware and are sometimes called devices drivers. These files usually have a sys extension. BATCH PROGRAMS: Batch programs are unformatted text files that contain MS-DOS commands. If you often type the same set of commands to start a program, you can put them into a batch program. Instead of typing the commands each time, you can use the batch program which carries out the commands for you. Batch files always have a BAT extension 1.7 STARTING AND QUITTING PROGRAM Which is convenient, but storing all these files can slow down your computer, and also leave a trail of the sites you’ve been visiting. Instead of having to remember to clear your cache to delete any temporary files Internet Explorer has saved, you can tweak your registry every time you quit Internet Explorer the browser automatically deletes the temporary files. Shutting Down Windows 98 1. Click on the Start at bottom left corner of screen 2. Click on Shutdown (A Shut Down Windows dialog box will appear) 3. Click on Shut Down 4. Click on OK 5. Shut down command helps to turning off the computer. 6. The proper shut down process saves the windows operating system files and others. 7. It is the right procedure to off the computer

MS WORD

2.0 INTRODUCTION TO MS-WORD INTRODUCTION Let us consider an office scene. Many letters are typed in the office. The officer dictates a letter. The typist first types a draft copy of the letter. The officer goes through it to check mistakes regarding spelling errors, missing words, etc. and suggests corrections. The typist changes the letter as suggested by the officer. This is a simple example of word processing. There are many software packages to do the job of word processing. Some of them work in DOS environment. Example are WordStar, Word Perfect and Professional Write. But in these days working in WINDOWS is becoming more and more popular. So let us consider software for word processing which works in WINDOWS. Our choice is MS-WORD because it is the most popular software in these days. MS-WORD is a part of the bigger package called MS OFFICE, which can do much more than word processing. In fact when you open up MS OFFICE you will find four main components in it. They are MSWORD (for word processing), MS EXCEL (for spreadsheet), MS ACCESS (for database management) and MS POWERPOINT (for presentation purposes). However, we will limit ourselves to MS-WORD only in this lesson. 2.1 OBJECTIVES After going through this lesson you should be in a position to 

WHAT IS WORD-PROCESSING? Word Processor is a Software package that enables you to create, edit, print and save documents for future retrieval and reference. Creating a document involves typing by using a keyboard and saving it.

Editing a document involves correcting the spelling mistakes, if any, deleting or moving words sentences or paragraphs. (a) Advantages of Word Processing One of the main advantages of a word processor over a conventional typewriter is that a word processor enables you to make changes to a document without retyping the entire document. (b) Features of Word Processing Most Word Processor available today allows more than just creating and editing documents. They have wide range of other tools and functions, which are used in formatting the documents. The following are the main features of a Word Processor i.

Text is typing into the computer, which allows alterations to be made easily.

ii.

Words and sentences can be inserted, amended or deleted.

iii.

Paragraphs or text can be copied /moved throughout the document.

iv.

Margins and page length can be adjusted as desired.

v.

Spelling can be checked and modified through the spell check facility.

vi.

Multiple document/files can be merged.

vii.

Multiple copies of letters can be generated with different addresses through the mail-merge facility.

(c) Some Common Word Processing Packages The followings are examples of some popular word processor available 

WORD PROCESSING The keyboard of a word processor is similar to that of a typewriter, but its capabilities extend far beyond the typewriter’s. For example, you don’t have to press the Return or Enter key at the end of every line - in word processing, the line “wraps around” when it reaches the margin you’ve set and allows you to continue typing without stopping, you only press Enter (or Return) when you

WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE

want to start a new paragraph or insert blank lines. If you make a mistake while typing use backspace or delete to erase it. MS-WORD

There are many commercial word processing programs including Open Office Writer Microsoft Word

, Corel WordPerfect

,

and others. Windows comes with WordPad to

edit and format documents and NotePad to edit text. Mac OS X comes with TextEdit or SimpleText in previous version. Open Office is an Open Source office application that can be downloaded for free at openoffice.org.

Editing functions such as inserting, deleting, moving, and copying characters, words, lines, and even blocks of text are fast and easy with only a few keystrokes. Advanced programs will number pages, repeat material in the same place on every page automatically, and check the spelling of every word in your document. You print your document only after it looks exactly the way you want it to. Finally, copies of your documents can be stored on a disk, enabling you to retrieve, edit, and print them at any time. The text appears at the cursor. Use the space bar to place spaces between words. Use backspace to erase to the left of the cursor and delete to erase to the right of the cursor. Use Enter (or Return) to move the cursor down a line. Word processors allows you to type your text in Bold, Italics or Underline. This is useful when you wish to highlight some word or line in a document. To activate Bold, Italics or Underline click the icon button on the Toolbar, type the text that you wish to have highlighted then press Toolbar icon again when you are finished. The indicator on the Toolbar will appear highlighted as long as the highlight style is on.

The text can also be modified by changing the Font. A font is the shape and size of a character of text. The three main types are serif (with tails); sans-serif (without tails); and script (similar to handwriting). Text colours can also be changed. Text can also be indented and tab settings added which modify where the text is placed on the page. Rather than press the space bar more than once set tabs where you want the cursor to move to. The page can be modified by changing the margins, adding headers or footers (repeating text on each page), page numbering, graphic images and various other ways. The Insert key toggles between Insert and Typeover. Sometimes an indicator on the bottom of the screen will display the typing mode you are in. Normally, any text after the cursor will be pushed across the screen (inserted) as new characters are typed in. With Typeover on the new character will just replace the old character at the cursor. Editing text is quite easy once you get used to it. Select text that you want to modify with the mouse or by holding down Shift and using the arrow keys. Holding Control (CTRL) will select text one word at a time. Once you have the text selected use Cut (Ctrl-X) to cut the text off the page and into a clipboard. Use Copy (Ctrl-C) to transfer a copy of the selected text to the clipboard. Use Paste (Ctrl-V) to paste the text into the document at the cursor. The Windows clipboard will only hold a single selection of text which is replaced with each new cut or copy. If you make a mistake most modern programs have an Undo feature (Crtl-Z). Many also have a Redo feature. Most word processors will check your spelling and many have thesauruses and will check your grammar. Don’t rely on the editing tools to replace a good proof reading though! (as this editor tends to do ;) 2.2 STARTING MICROSOFT WORD

CREATING, EDITING AND SAVING A DOCUMENT

CREATING AND EDITING A DOCUMENT INTRODUCTION Now you are familiar with the basics of Ms-Word. After invoking Ms-Word, the next step is to create a file or document in which you can work. By default Ms-Word opens a new blank document when you start it. As you have seen from fig. 9.2 in the previous lesson, you noticed a blank work area where you can straight away type your text. However, let us close this work area by clicking the left mouse button at file on the main menu bar and then at close. The work area will disappear. Now, suppose you want to create a new document.

OBJECTIVES At the end of the lesson you would be able to do the following functions     

GETTING STARTED WITH MS-WORD We have already told you that for working in Ms-Word you should be familiar with WINDOWS. If you have not covered WINDOWS so far then read that first and then go through MS-WORD. By now you must be aware of the fact that a software package is improved from time to time. These improvements are sold in the market as new versions of the same software. Thus you will find many versions of MS-WORD being used in different offices. In this lesson we will cover the version MS-WORD 97, which is latest in the market and contain many improvements over the older versions. However, you do not have to worry if you have an older version such as WORD 6.0 or WORD 95. All the commands available in these older versions are also available in WORD 97 and they are compatible. While working in MS-WORD you have to work with a mouse. Also one can work, to some extent, through the keyboard. The use of mouse is simpler as it is fully menu driven. In MS-WORD every command is available in the form of ‘icons’. You can go inside MS-WORD by the following way 1. Take the mouse pointer to START button on the task bar. Click the left mouse button. The monitor will show like as follows:

2.11 PRINT: Thanks to Chris Maunder for introducing the printing method in Printing without the Document/View framework. Many people have been asking for print preview without the doc/view framework as well. However, so far, no body has proposed a way to do that yet. I have studied on how Microsoft implements print preview in doc/view framework using the class CPreviewView, which is

FOR MORE DETAILS VISIT US ON WWW.IMTSINSTITUTE.COM OR CALL ON +91-9999554621


WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE

66

derived from CSrollView. The print preview is called from CView::OnFilePrintPreview ( ) and CView::DoPrintPreview. They are undocumented, the source code can be found from VC\mfc\src\Viewprev.cpp. The implementation relies on CView and CFrameWnd framework extensively. In order to use the default print preview functionality in non doc/view framework, like dialog based applications, I played a trick by creating temporary CFrameWnd and CView objects and then calling the default OnFilePrintPreview( ) from the temporary view class. I borrowed Chris Maunder’s CGridCtrl control from MFC Grid control (derived from CWnd) article as an example to illustrate the implementation. I included another demo project, which was modified from Iuri Apollonio’s article: Generic printing class (and how to print list control content). The code was developed under VC5 environment and has been tested in Windows 98 and NT platforms without any problem. :) Now is the time to actually print our great piece of work!

1.

Choose Print command from file menu.

2.

Choose your printer from this list. In most of the cases default printer would be the right one.

3.

Click here to choose All. This would print all the pages of the print document.

4.

Click on OK button to print.

2.12 PRINT PREVIEW:

Once you have completed spelling for the entire document, now is the time to sit back and take stock of your work. Because of advanced WYSIWYG feature (What You See Is What You Get) inbuilt in MS Office, you can see a preview, on screen of what you wish to print. In most cases, this preview would give you an exact replica of what your printer would print. This is very helpful, since you save considerable amount of time and money (in printing and stationary cost) by making sure that your document looks exactly the way it should, before you finally print it.

1.

Choose Print Preview command from File menu.

2.

This is what appears on the screen. An exact copy of the page, which your printer would print. If you are happy with what you see, go ahead and prints the document .If not, goes back to the main screen by clicking on Close button and make necessary changes.

3.6 Inserting new cell(s), row(s), or column(s):

1.

To insert a new cell or cells:

Select the number of cells you want to insert. Go under the Insert menu and select Cells‌

2.

To insert new rows or columns:

Select the row or column heading(s) where you want to insert you new row(s) or column(s). Go under the Insert menu and select Rows or Columns Excel will try to give inserted cell(s) the same format as the cells around them.

3.

To insert a new sheet(s): Go under the Insert menu and select Worksheet.

3.7 An important difference between DELETE and CLEAR:

If cell content is cleared, its contents are erased but the cell itself remains. However when a cell is deleted, the cell itself is removed, moving the adjacent cells to close up space that was occupied by the deleted cell.

This causes two main problems: Aesthetics - Deleting a cell shifts your worksheet data around. Formulas - if you enter the formula =A1*B1 in a cell and then cleared cell B1, the result of the formula will be zero (A1*0). But if B1 was deleted, the cell containing the formula

FOR MORE DETAILS VISIT US ON WWW.IMTSINSTITUTE.COM OR CALL ON +91-9999554621


WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE

74

=A1*B1 is changed to =A1*#REF! and produces the #REF! Error value to let you know that you need to adjust your formula. -

This is a common error among Excel users who are just trying to clear the existing cell of old data or formats so that they can enter a new set of data or formats. But by deleting the existing cell, they no longer have the correct cell(s) or space to enter their new information.

• Delete Use the Delete command to remove cells from the worksheet and close up the space occupied by the cells. Deleted cells do not go to the Clipboard. Use the cut command if you want to move data to a new location. You can also delete an entire row or rows (which will shift the remaining rows up) or delete an entire column (which will shift the remaining column to the left) or an entire work sheet.

To delete cell(s), rows or columns:  Select the cells, rows, column or work sheet you want to delete.  Go under the Edit menu and select Delete...  From there you will have to choose which way to shift the existing cells.

To delete a work sheet:  Go under the Edit menu and select Delete Sheet. • Clear  Clearing a cell clears the contents (and formats, or notes, or all three) from that cell, but leaves the cell in the structure of the worksheet.

To clear a cell, row, or column:  Highlighted the intended cell, row, or column you want to clear.  Go under the Edit menu and select Clear  Under the Clear command, you can either select clear All, Contents, Formats, or Notes.  Select the command you want and release.  It is usually better to delete a whole sheet than to clear a sheet of all its content.  To clear a single cell of its content, hit the delete button on your keyboard.  Cut and Copied cell(s) will have a dashed rectangle around it.

3.9 CELL FORMATTING  With cell formatting, you can change the appearance of data in your worksheet, such as formatting numbers to designate dollar amounts, percentages, decimals, or change the font, size, style, color and alignment of data in a cell.  You can also change the appearance of the cells in your worksheet by adding color or boarders to your cells.  To active the Format Cells Menu:  Go under the Format menu and select Cells  As with all editing, you must select either the cell, range of cell, row(s), column(s), or the entire sheet that you want the format to be applied.

1. Number

The Number Format allows you to designate how data is displayed in Excel. You can choose to have the cell data converted from decimals into percent or have your data turned into currency without having to type a $ sign in front of every single entry. Excel can also customize how it displays your data, such as having commas in your numbers or how many decimal places your data should display. In the toolbar, using this button will decrease the decimal place by one and this button will increase your decimal place by one. Besides having your data converted in to percent and currency, there are other options such as date, time, fraction, scientific, text and even custom. To use the Number Format Menu effectively, you must understand how to use the Code box.

2. Alignments

The Alignment format allows you to left align, center or right align your text within a cell. You can also align text within a range of cells, change the Orientation and Vertical alignment of your data, and active word wrapping to save space and keep long lines within one cell.

WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE

78

 Activate the Format menu and chose row height or column width  Changing a cell with will automatically change the width of the whole column and changing a cell height will automatically change the row height.

Using auto fit to change the width of a column and height of a row.

There is an AutoFit selection under the height and row format. AutoFit will automatically adjust your cell size to fit the entry in your cell. However, if an entire column or row is selected, Excel will adjust the column or row to the size of the widest cell in that particular column or row.  Place the cursor on the line between the two columns or rows heading you want to format.  The cursor should turn into a symbol with two arrows on it.  Now drag the symbol to your desire height or width or  Double click the mouse button to AutoFit the entire row or column.

3.10 CREATING A SERIES  Several types of data repeat in logical sequence or predictable patterns. (E.g. Days of the week and months). Excel can repeat several such sequences when you create a series. You can create a series in two ways, using the Fill Series menu or dragging.

To create a series with the Fill command:

In the first cell where you want to start the series, enter a starting value. Select the cells in the row or column in which you want to extend the series, starting at the cell in which you entered the starting value of the series.

From the Edit menu, chose Fill Series...  Chose the series type (linear, exponential)  Chose the linear increment, or growth factor you want to use  Chose when you want Excel to stop extending the series.  Hit OK when finish

To create a series by dragging:  Select a range of two cells and enter the first two values for the series. Leave the range selected.  Move cursor over to the bottom right corner of the selected range called the fill handle.

FOR MORE DETAILS VISIT US ON WWW.IMTSINSTITUTE.COM OR CALL ON +91-9999554621


WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE

79

 Cursor should turn into black cross.  Drag the fill handle and release the mouse button at the end of the range into which you want to fill.  Excel determines the incremental changes between the cells and adjusts the values of the series by the same amount. Excel is not always accurate with its determination. If you don’t want Excel to adjust for the incremental change, hold down the Ctrl key. 3.11 FORMULA ENTRY  A formula is a simple way to evaluate a series of values. Each formula starts with an equals sign “=“followed by either a cell reference (such as “A1”) or a value (such as “1875”). Usually a formula contains several series of values of cell references each separated by a math operator. (See Table 3)  A typical formula might look like this = X2 * (D2 - B2)  Remember to use parenthesis to show what operations should be done first.

Table 3 Math Operators Function Sign Division / Multiplication * Subtracting Addition + Power ^ 3.12 RELATIVE REFERENCING 

A relative reference tells Excel how to find another cell, starting from the cell containing the formula. Reference such as C4 and F7 are relative references.

When you copy formulas and functions, Excel automatically adjusts the cell references so that it works correctly. Excel calls this method of adjusting the references relative addressing, which means that as you copy the cell to another location, Excel adjusts the references in a relative manner. Thus if you copy the formula “A1+B2” in cell E1 over to cell F3, Excel adjusts the formula to “B3+C4” by “adding” a column and two rows to the references in the current function.

3.13 ABSOLUTE REFERENCING 

An absolute reference tells Excel how to find a cell based on the exact location of that cell in the worksheet.

FOR MORE DETAILS VISIT US ON WWW.IMTSINSTITUTE.COM OR CALL ON +91-9999554621


WINDOW 98, MS OFFICE 

80

When you have a reference that must stay fixed, you mark it as an absolute reference. An absolute reference is a cell reference that Excel does not adjust when you copy or move the cell.

To mark an absolute reference: 

Select the cell reference that you must mark as an absolute reference

Mark an absolute references in your formula with a dollar sign ($) before the column letter or the row number or both (e.g. $C$3).

How can I decide when to use Relative or Absolute References? 

Use a relative reference (such as B5) if you want to refer to cells relative to the cell containing the formula, even if you copy the formula.

Use an absolute reference when you want to refer to the same cell regardless of where the formula is located on the worksheet.

For Example: 

correct use of reference

Wrong use of reference

If you want to know the monthly spending as a percentage of the total spending. You would divide January Spending by Total Spending. Thus, you would write the formula “=Y2/$Y$14” or “Y2/Y14” for the month of January.

If you wrote “=Y2/$Y$14”, as you fill or copy the formula to the cell AA3 the formula will automatically change to “=Y3/$Y$14”. The relative reference “Y2”, January Spending, will change to “Y3”, February Spending, while your absolute reference “$Y$14”, Total Spending”, stays the same.

However, if you wrote the formula “Y2/Y14” for the month of January, as you fill or copy the formula to the cell AA3, the formula with the relative reference “Y2”, January Spending, will change to “Y3”, February Spending. But the relative reference “Y14” which referred the Total Spending will change to “Y15”, which has a value of Zero. This will lead to a wrong value.

You could type the formula into each cell. Thus having to avoid the error of relative referencing.

3.14 FUNCTIONS A function is a special prewritten formula that takes a value or values, performs an operation, and returns its result(s). Using functions simplifies and shortens formulas in your worksheets, especially those that perform lengthy or complex calculations. For example, instead of typing the formula

“=A1+A2+A3+A4+A5”, you can use the Sum function to build the formula =SUM (A1:A4). The necessary data such as “A1:A4” are called arguments. To input any function, write in a function with the correct arguments into your formula or click on the FUNCTION WIZARD Icon, or go to Function... under the Insert Menu.

3.15 USING THE FUNCTION WIZARD: • Step 1 It will allow you to pick the function that you want. Simply highlight the function that you want and hit Next. • Step 2  Step 2 of the Function Wizard will give you a description of the function at the top and list the necessary arguments to complete the function. Depending on which argument that you are at, Excel will give you a description on what values are needed in the specific argument.  Arguments that are in Bold are necessary while the normal text are not.  To input the range of data necessary for each argument:  Type in the correct range or  Select the range from your worksheet using your mouse. or  If the required data input for the argument is a function, then hit the function wizard icon next to the argument and repeat steps one and two to create the necessary input.  When you are done, hit the Finish button or hit Back to change your function.

3.16 PRINTING To print any worksheet select Print... under the File menu. 

You can choose between

Printing your selection, Current worksheet or the Entire workbook. 

It is suggested to view

Print preview before Printing. • Customized Print Out 

Often Excel prints more than what you want, or prints one row of a document on a separate page, or what not. You can have complete control over page formatting by combined use of the Print

Selection, Insert Page Break, and Page Setup Dialog Box.

• Margins To remove change your margins, go to the Page Setup... under the File menu and select Margins. • Landscape or Portrait Excel by default prints the worksheet Portrait. To change to Landscape, chose Page Setup... under the File menu and select Page. • Printing your selection 

Select the cells you want to print, and choose the Print command under the File menu. In the Print dialog box, select Print Selection. Only the selected cells will now be printed.

By default, Excel sets the print area as a rectangle stretching from cell A1 to the furthest cell containing any entry. You can select an exact Print Area, by clicking on the Page Setup button after you selected Print Selection. In Page Setup, go to Sheet and select the print area you want either by typing or dragging the area on your worksheet. The individual ranges will print on separate pages.

• Insert Page Break One usually doesn’t want to split a table over pages. You can’t just hit the return key a few times and move the table over to the next page like in Word; adding rows is awkward. Instead, go to the cell you want to appear at the top of the new page, under the Insert menu, select Page Break. You’ll see a dotted line above the current cell, representing the page-divider. • Scaling Scaling allows you to manually specify the magnification of the sheet you want to print.

Fit to Page Fit to Page will scale any spreadsheet or graph to fit on a specified number of pages. In the Print Setup

Setup dialog box chose Page and you can set the number of pages wide and tall you want to scale to. Excel will scale proportionately. If you have a document with a couple of columns but many rows, trying to fit on 1 page will give you some unreadable tiny characters on one side with the rest of the page empty. In such a case fitting to 1 page wide and several pages tall will give better results.

• Header and Footers By default, Excel prints the file name at the top and the page number at the bottom of each page. To change this, go to the Page Setup... under the File menu and select Header/Footer. Click on either and proceed to erase whatever text is in the dialog box. • Removing those annoying gridlines To remove gridlines during printing, go to the Page Setup... under the File menu and select Sheet. There’s a checkbox for gridlines. Turn it off. 3.17 CREATING A CHART Select the data you want to plot. Include cells containing labels for rows and columns that you want used in the chart. Click the Chart Wizard tool or go under the Insert menu and select Chart. • Step 1  Step 1 of the Chart Wizard allows you to select the type of chart that you want.  Select Next when you are done or Back if you have made a mistake in the previous step. What’s the difference between a Line chart and a (XY) Scatter chart?  The line chart emphasizes time flow and the rate of change, rather than amount of change. Which means that the line chart will plot each data point one tick mark apart regardless of how far apart the x-data is. It only shows the difference between one point to the next.  The XY- scatter however will show the relationship or degree of relationship between the numeric values in several chart data series. This means that Excel will calculates the scale and tick-mark labels for the x-axis, just as it does for the y-axis. You will have the ability to plot a line through XY-scatter. An Example: If you were to plot pig numbers vs. how much they weight. The numerical value for the pig should not affect how the data is plotted since all pigs are equal. However, if you were plotting Time vs. growth, both time and growth is dependent and must be plotted according to scale.

• Step 2  Step 2 of the Chart Wizard tells you to confirm that the cells you wanted are in the range displayed. If you did happen to select the wrong cells, go ahead and move the Chart Wizard dialog box and select the correct cell(s) or type in the correct range. 

Step 3  Series - select Rows if your data was enter in a rows (across) or select  Columns if your data was enter in a column form (up/down).  Select Next when you are done

• Step 4  Step 4 of the Chart Wizard allows you to select where you want to place the new chart, either in a new page, or as an object in the current page.  Select Finish when you are done or Back if you have made a mistake in the previous step. • You have now created a chart... Don’t worry if you forgot to add a chart title or an axis label or even picked out the wrong chart, we can always edit the chart after we are done. WORKING WITH A CHART: • Selecting a Chart Select a chart by clicking one time on the chart. Selected chart will have eight tiny boxes around the edge called handles. • Moving a Chart and its Contents Moving a chart is similar to move a cell. Select the chart you want to move and drag it to the new location. - You can also move the Title, Legend, Axis Labels and even the plot it self from the opened chart. Select the Object you are trying to move. Selected Object within the chart should have boxes around it. Move the object by dragging the object by its border. • To Insert, Modify or Delete Legend, Chart Title or Axis Labels:  Right click on the chart, and choose Chart Options…  Change the appropriate data.

4.11 AUTOCONTENT WIZARD:

The decision to use an AutoContent Wizard or to create your own presentation from blank slides is yours to make. The Wizard can give you pre-made templates with great backgrounds and effects to choose from. It also creates a pre-made summary of the type of information that should be in your target presentation. The same templates are available from the Design Template Task Pane or from the General Template Folder, but without the pre-made presentation.

1. Follow the steps through the wizard to try out the options. 

Choose a presentation type.

Choose a style.

Choose output options.

Decide on presentation options such as the title.

2. When the presentation is pulled on screen, you’ll just need to replace the text and graphics with your own data and pictures. 3. The pre- made presentations can lead you through creating your own presentation.

Templates

1. The General Template Folder leads you to a three tabbed dialog box. General has the Blank Template and repeats access to the AutoContent Wizard. Design Templates lists the same group of templates that can be seen on the Slide Design Task Pane. Also you see more than one example at a time from the task pane. A presentation is the actual list of pre- made presentations that show up in the AutoContent Wizard. The backgrounds are different than the Design Template backgrounds. You may choose a background before you create your presentation or add it to the slides you create later on with the Slide Design Task Pane.

BLANK PRESENTATIONS:

1. If you like to create your own thing from the ground up, stick with the blank presentation already started on screen. 2. Let’s add a slide design now from the Slide Design Task Pane. Click “From Design Template”. Choose one! It will apply to all new slides from this point on. 3. To see more of the screen you may turn off the New Presentation Task Pane at any time. I suggest leaving it on for now. 4. Now we’re ready to start adding text to the first slide.

5. A PowerPoint slide is not like a Word document. You don’t just type on it. A slide is created in layers. The bottom layer is the design. Next are text and graphics boxes. Then there are layers of text, animation, sound, transitions, etc. Entering Text in Your Presentation: 1. Enter text into the text boxes already on the title slide on screen and the program will fill in the same text to the outline on the side frame. and choose the Slide Layout Task Pane. 3. This new pane will let you apply a different slide layout to the slide you are working on. Leave it a title slide for now. 4. Tab or click in the text box and type in your text. 5. If the line of text is too long, the program automatically shrinks the font size and wraps the text adjusting the box size to fit. 6. The size of the text will automatically adjust to fit in the box on bulleted lists as well. INSERT MORE SLIDES: Now that you have a blank presentation with one slide, let's add a second. 1.

Click the insert slide icon on the toolbar.

2.

The Slide Layout Task Pane will open automatically and the layout style may be changed.

3.

New slides may also be added by clicking the gray bar with a down arrow that appears on the layout types as you run your mouse across the Layout Task Pane. Insert a slide of each type.

Editing Text in Your Presentation: 1.

To edit text, click again on the text box and highlight the text by dragging the mouse over it while holding down the mouse button.

2.

For fast formatting of text use the Formatting Toolbar. After highlighting the text, then click on the effect you want: Bold, Italics, Font Style, Size and Color, Justification, etc.  Highlight the text and click the button to italicize.  Choose a larger font style and size.  Change the font color.

3.

Remember, text must be highlighted before editing.

4.

4.14 AUTOCONTENT WIZARD: Step 1 - What is the AutoContent Wizard? This wizard is useful for certain categories of presentations particularly business related presentations. PowerPoint will create a number of slides for you and will suggest content relevant to that specific type of presentation. This wizard helps you determine the content and organization of your presentation by using an outline. The AutoContent Wizard leads you through a series of questions so you can choose the best layout for your presentation. The Wizard supplies not only the design but also ideas, starter text, formatting and organization. The color scheme and the background color will be selected for you although you can change this afterwards. A very easy way to get started is to use the AutoContent wizard.

Step 2 - Start This will ask you for some information such as your name, the tile of the presentation, type of the presentation This wizard only creates an outline for common types of presentations.

4.16 SETTING ANIMATION EFFECT

PowerPoint's transition and animation effects are similar. When you set transitions, you control how slides move from one another; when you add animation effects, you control how your slide objects move onto the slide. ď ś Add Transitions Anyone who has watched television news has seen transition effects. For example, when you see the weather map swish from left to right to switch from the temperature map to the precipitation map, you're seeing a transition in action. These effects which used to require incredibly costly video equipment are now common in on-screen presentations because they are easy to add. In PowerPoint, with just a click of a mouse, you can add transition effects to one or all of the slides in your presentation. As with your overall design, when adding effects, consistency is good. Use particular effects only to delineate a special type of slide or a turning point in your presentation.

3 Set Sound The Task Pane has more transition options that affect how a slide appears. You can choose the transition type, the speed and how the slide advances. Next to Sound, click the drop down box to choose a sound to accompany the transition. Click Loop until next sound if you want the sound to continue until the next sound begins.

4 Set Timings In the Slide Transition pane, you also can set slide timings. Click On mouse click to move to the next slide when you click the mouse. Or click Automatically after and specify a time the slide remains on the screen before advancing automatically.

Add Animation You can animate the text, pictures, charts, to help focus on important points. One way to use animation, for example, is to add bullet points to a slide incrementally as you talk about them and dim the bullet points you've discussed. As with transitions, you have a lot of choices, but you should use animation effects sparingly, judiciously, and only when they will enhance the message you are trying to communicate.

1 Add Preset Animation The easiest way to add animation is in Normal view. Choose Slide Show Animation Schemes. In the Task Pane that appears, click to select an animation type. If Auto Preview is selected, you'll see the animation in action.

5 Preview Animation After you have set up your animations, you can click the Play button to see your settings in action. Often you find an effect (most notably sound) that seemed like a good idea, isn't so appealing after all.

As with anything else there are good uses for animation and not so good uses. One effective way to use animation is to illustrate a process.

For example, if you need to show a flow chart, you can animate the AutoShapes that compose the flow chart and bring them in incrementally as you describe the steps in the procedure. With both transitions and animations, a little goes a long way. When used judiciously, transitions and animations can enhance your presentation. However, always remember that the real focus of the presentation should be the presenter (i.e., you) so don't use so many effects that your audience forgets about you and what you're talking about.
