5 New Features in Microsoft Office 2003

1. On the right-hand side of most screens in Office 2003, there is a 'Getting Started' task pane which allows you quick access to your documents and also enables you to access the Microsoft Office online system. From this task pane you can open new or saved documents, connect to the help section of the Microsoft Web Site and get the latest news about Office 2003. The task pane also contains a search box which will link to the Microsoft Web Site, provided your computer is online. You can enable or disable the 'Getting Started' task pane by clicking on 'View' on the top menu and then selecting 'Task Pane'.

2. The new 'Research' task pane is a very useful method of looking up information from a variety of sources on the Internet. This pane also contains a search box into which you can enter your query. Immediately below the search box there is a drop-down arrow which, once invoked, displays a list of sources, e.g. Encarta Dictionary, Encarta Encyclopaedia, MSN Money Stock Quotes etc… The 'Research' Task pane can be enabled by clicking on the small black triangle at the top of the right hand pane.


3. A selection of 'Templates' is now available form the Microsoft Web Site. Type 'templates' into the search box and the Office Online site will produce a list of appropriate results. Some of the templates available for Microsoft Word 2003 include, calendars, business plans, faxes, resumes, flyers, presentations, expense reports, forms etc… Why reinvent, when Microsoft has the hard work done for you?

4. Information Rights Management (IRM). Click on 'File' on the top menu and then 'Permission', and provided you have IRM installed you can restrict access to your documents. A download is available from The Microsoft Web Site. You can create documents with restricted access in Microsoft Office Professional 2003, Microsoft Office Word 2003, Microsoft Office Excel 2003, and Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003. You can easily prevent sensitive material from falling into the wrong hands even when your documents have been submitted electronically.

5. New 'Reading Layout' view which makes reading long documents much easier on the eyes. Turn on Reading Layout either from 'View' on the top menu or from the 'Reading Layout' icon on the bottom left hand corner. This view also introduces a navigational toolbar at the top which includes thumbnails and a document map.

Linking Excel to Word 2003.


Inserting Excel worksheets in a Microsoft Word 2003 document.


The mathematical functionality within tables in Microsoft Word 2003
is quite limited. For instance having entered a sum(above) formula if we then
change a cell content the "sum" does not refresh.
For more complicated calculations it is advisable to perform the calculation in
a Microsoft Excel 2003 Worksheet and insert it in Word 2003.


This can be done by any of three methods:
  • Copying and Pasting

  • Embedding

  • Linking

  • The question now is which method do we use to insert an Excel Worksheet
    into a Word 2003 document.


    The method used depends very much on whether the data from the source i.e. Excel
    needs to update the destination file i.e Word 2003.


    If the data does not have to be updated then the Copying and Pasting method will
    suffice as this method does not "Connect" both files.
    If the data does have to be updated then use either the Embedding or Linking method.

    Word Training Manual - How to Display Text in Columns


    Word Training Manual - Blog Number 4 - Displaying Text in Columns


    When you type text in Microsoft Word the text is displayed in a single column.


    However if you prefer to display your text in 2, 3 or more columns like a newspaper or magazine, then Word has the tools available to help you achieve this.


    You can define a column as being a block of text which had its own margins.


    Word will "flow" the text from the bottom of one column to the top of the next.


    You invoke the columns command by clicking Format on the menu followed by Columns


    A dialogue box opens which will allow you to choose the number of columns you need
    and you can also determine the width and spacing required
