Word Training Manual Update


Word Training Manual update


This update is not included in Word Training Manual V1


Did you know that you can perform Mathematical Calculations in a Word table?

Word has a number of built-in formulas for adding, subtracting, getting averages etc...

You can access the formulae from the Table menu.

Each formula starts with an "equal sign" (=) followed

by a function name.

The addition function name is called "Sum"

and we then indicate the location of the Table cells we wish to add.

An example of adding a column of cells above the current cell

=SUM(ABOVE).

This will add the contents of the column directly above the current cell.


Tables of Rows and Columns - How to present information - Word Training Manual v2


Word Training Manual v2


To organize data and present it in in a concise way, you should consider using a table
with rows and columns.You will enter your data in cells like in a grid.

Each cell
is defined by the intersection of the rows and columns.


The cells in the table can be of a standard size or they can be customized
to suit your data.


Additional rows and columns can be added easily by using the Word Tables menu.


To get started click on Tables from the menu followed by Insert Tables
and then calculate how many rows and columns you will need


Tip: Using pen and paper draw out your table roughly before you
start to determine the visual impact you wish to make.This will also
act as a guide to the number of rows and columns you require.
