In this chapter we will spend a lot of time demonstrating and explaining how to create your first Microsoft Office files. They can be documents, presentations, worksheets, or databases, and even though the user interface of the different applications that you have to use is not always the same, some basic principles, features, and tools are the same across all of them.

      We will begin by showing how to start the Microsoft Office application that you want to use and how to create your first empty file. You will then learn how to save your work and how to work with multiple Microsoft Office windows at the same time.

      Then we will take a deep dive into more complex aspects of working with data: selecting it, copying it, and moving it around your files. You will learn how to find a specific subset of your data, how to replace it, how to improve the spelling of your files, and how to change the way you view them. Then we will demonstrate how to print your files when you have finished working with them.

      The next portion of this chapter will be about formatting your files and improving the way they look so that you can communicate more effectively when you share them with others.

      Finally, we will demonstrate the basic ways you can add multimedia files to your Microsoft Office documents and presentations, along with the adjustments you can make so that your multimedia files will display to their best advantage. There’s a lot of ground to cover, so let’s get started.

      Creating New Empty Documents with Microsoft Office

      The first step you need to go through when creating any Microsoft Office file is to learn how to start the Microsoft Office application that you want to use and how to create an empty file. Then you can start working with it. When you have finished, you need to know how to save your work so that it is not lost.

      Chances are that you will need to work with multiple files at the same time and use data from multiple sources. That’s why it is good to know how to work with multiple application
