How to use this Manual Each Chapter begins with a table detailing the following: Objectives What you will do Notes explaining which exercise will be used if necessary
There is also a brief introduction to each new concept with illustrations to assist you with the familiarisation.

Another feature is the Dialogue Box Launchers, which are small arrows found on the bottom right hand corner of most groups. These will launch things like the ‘Font’, or ‘Page Setup’ box, which you may already be familiar with.
1.2 Hide and Show the Ribbon It is possible to hide the Ribbon by clicking the small arrow on the top right of the screen. This gives you more space to work on your document. Pressing ‘CTRL + F1’ also hides the Ribbon. The ribbon can be customised by right clicking and choosing the appropriate option.

1.4 Zoom You can now use the Zoom option to vary the size of the display. This can be found on the lower right hand corner of the screen.
1.5 Quick Access Toolbar The Quick Access Toolbar will always be shown on the top left of the screen even if the Ribbon has been hidden. The commands here are the most common ones used, such as ‘Save’, ‘Undo and ‘Redo’. This toolbar can be quickly customised with the commonly used function by choosing the ‘Customise Quick Access Toolbar’ black downward arrow to the right hand side of the toolbar.
1.2
Backstage View Backstage View groups together information about documents and common tasks you can perform. It enables you to do things to your document, such as saving and printing files, and automatically previews your document. Tabs, Groups and Commands enable you to do things within your document. The Backstage view is launched by clicking on the ‘File’ Tab.

Chapter Five – Moving Over 5.1
Compatibility Mode Compatibility mode allows you to work on documents created in Office versions prior to 2010. If working in Compatibility mode, some of the new functions in 2010 may be disabled. For example if you open a document created in Office 2003 or 2007, 2010 will detect this and automatically switch to Compatibility mode. You will see the text [Compatibility Mode] displayed in the Title Bar. However, it is quite simple to convert it to 2010 and thereby enable the new functions. This can be done by clicking on the ‘File’ tab. You will immediately see a message which indicates that you are in Compatibility mode and a ‘Convert’ button displayed. By clicking on ‘Convert’ a dialogue box will appear indicating that the document will be converted to the newer 2010 format and given a .docx extension
File
• Click 'File Tab' • Select 'Info' command
Convert
• Locate 'Compatibility Mode' • Click 'Convert' button
Dialogue Box
• Click 'OK' on Dialogue box to complete the conversion
