Studies show that most people use only 20% of a software package’s features. This course is designed to show you most of that other 80% of the program. You will be introduced to advanced features such as templates, mail merge, styles, graphics, columns and more. Most of these features can improve the proficiency of any person who uses Word a lot and would like to find ways to take advantage of what it has to offer.

Many people recall word processor documents for slight modications then reprint it or save it under another filename. They could be using Words Template feature to accomodate this. Along with using templates you will be shown how to create form fields for enhancing the uses of templates.

Styles is another feature that will improve your productivity with Word. It is beneficial to understand Styles since Word takes anything that it sees as a heading and adds it to a Style list automatically.

Mail merge is not a tool that everyone needs to use but you will go through it and see how simple it is to use with Word’s Mail Merge Helper.

Many of these features have to be understood and implemented properly. Work with our step by step instructions and followup exercises to get some hands on experience with them.
