WORD

Word

Word may refer to any of the following:

1. In general, a word is a single element of speech that is typically separated by spaces and helps form a sentence. For example, this sentence contains seven words. The English language contains several hundred thousand different words and learne-world lists over 14,000 computer related words in its computer dictionary.

2. In computing, a word is a single unit of measurement that is assumed to be a 16-bits in length value. However, it can be any set value, common values included: 16, 18, 24, 32, 36, 40, 48, and 64.

3. Sometimes called Winword, MS Word, or Word, Microsoft Word is a word processor published by Microsoft. It is one of the office productivity applications included in Microsoft Office. Originally developed by Charles Simonyi and Richard Brodie, it was first released in 1983.
 

What is Word used for?

Microsoft Word allows you to create professional-quality documents, reports, letters, and resumes. Unlike a plain text editor, Microsoft Word has features including spell check, grammar check, text and font formatting, HTML support, image support, advanced page layout, and more.


What does the Word editor look like?

Where do you find or start Microsoft Word?
If you have Microsoft Word or the entire Microsoft Office package installed on Microsoft Windows, you can find Microsoft Word in your Start Menu.


Keep in mind that new computers do not include Microsoft Word. It must be purchased and installed before it can be run on your computer. If you do not want (or cannot afford) to purchase Microsoft Word, you can use a limited version for free at www.office.com.


Note: there are also free word processing programs you can try that are very similar to Microsoft Word.


If Microsoft Word is installed on your computer, but you can't find it in your Start Menu, use the following steps to manually launch Microsoft Word:


Open My Computer.


Click on or select the C: drive. If Microsoft Office is installed on a drive other than the C: drive, select that drive instead.


Navigate to the Program Files (x86) folder, then the Microsoft Office folder.


In the Microsoft Office folder, if there is a root, open that folder. Then open the OfficeXX folder, where XX is the version of Office (e.g. Office16 for Microsoft Office 2016). If there is no root folder, look for and open a folder having "Office" in the name.


Look for a file named WINWORD.EXE and click or double-click that file to start the Microsoft Word program.


What type of files can Microsoft Word create and use?

Early versions of Microsoft Word primarily created and used the .doc file extension, while newer versions of Word create and use the .docx file extension.
More recent versions of Microsoft Word can create and open the following types of files:
.doc, .docm, .docx
.dot, .dotm, .dotx
.htm, .html
.mht, .mhtml
.odt
.pdf
.rtf
.txt
.wps
.xps
.xml
