If you're new to Microsoft
Word, you'll need to learn
the basics of typing, editing, and
organizing text. Basic tasks
include the ability to add, delete,
and move text in your document,
as well as how to cut, copy,
and paste.
Using the insertion point to

The insertion point is


the blinking vertical line in your
document. It indicates where
you can enter text on the page.
You can use the insertion point in a variety of
ways.

1. Blank document: When a new blank document


opens, the insertion point will appear in the top-
left corner of the page.
2. Adding spaces:
Press the spacebar to
add spaces after a word or in between
text.
3. New paragraph line: Press Enter on
your keyboard to move the insertion
point to the next paragraph line.
4. Manual placement: Once you begin
typing, you can use the mouse to move
the insertion point to a specific place in
your document. Simply click
the location in the text where you want
to place it.
5. Arrow keys: You can also use the
arrow keys on your keyboard to move
the insertion point.
The left and right arrow keys will
move between adjacent characters on
the same line, while
the up and down arrows will
movebetween paragraph lines. You can
also press Ctrl+Left or Ctrl+Right to
quickly move between entire words.

text:

point, press the Backspace key on your
keyboard.

point, press the Delete key on your keyboard.
• Select the text you want to remove, then
press the Delete key.
