- Office Quick Start Guides
If your table features a lot of different data types, these can be hidden if necessary using the Filter button displayed to the right of the chart in Chart Design view. This Chart Filters option streamlines the process of adding and removing data from a chart with simple check boxes and also enables the switching of the chart design between 2D and 3D. You can also get some good reactions from anyone viewing your chart by changing a value in your chart's table -- the chart's adaptation to the new figures will be animated, always great for the "wow" factor.
Note that online collaboration still isn't possible for Excel. Look out for the memorable "File is locked" warning when you try to edit an already open file. Introduced in Excel , conditional formatting enables the user to apply formatting based on the contents of the cell a prime example might be coloring the text red to represent a loss.
In Excel , conditional formatting has been made easier to apply, thanks to the Quick Analysis icon that appears at the bottom right of a selected table or portion of data. This enables you to quickly select from a common selection of conditional formatting such as the example above. With this tool, you can also quickly display sum figures, calculate averages and count values in your table. There was a time when to be a master of Excel you had to understand PivotTables inside-out. With Excel there is still a requirement to be familiar with this feature, but a new tool, Suggested PivotTables , enables casual users to take advantage of the software's ability to handle interconnected data.
Like Suggested Charts , this feature is easy to use. Once you've selected your data, use the Insert tab to find the Suggested PivotTables button and observe the results. Unavailable in the smaller packages is Power View , which comes as part of the Office Professional Plus version of Excel.
This tool is Excel's key weapon in the battle against various business intelligence packages and can turn a huge table of numbers into striking, meaningful graphics for instance, complex information with reference to locations -- perhaps sales data -- can be displayed by making use of Bing Maps. The addition of the PowerPivot add-in turns Excel into an application that can potentially rival successful business intelligence software such as Business Objects.
Every day, in offices across the world, people are struggling to stay awake in presentations. This is rarely the fault of the software, and almost always due to the unimaginative content and the ability or inability of the speaker.
Making presentations more compelling is a challenge that Microsoft sets itself with each new release of PowerPoint. Over the years this has been attempted with the addition of embedded rich media and improved performance, and this time around Microsoft has delivered improvements to slide design, new swipes and zooms, and even a new view. One of the things that you will need to bear in mind with Office is that although the new Modern-style user interface is intended for use by fingers, it isn't perfect for this use.
This is typified in PowerPoint , where you should be very careful about using anything other than the traditional mouse and keyboard to create and edit new presentations. Elements such as the window controls in the top-right, the zoom slider at the bottom and even the touch mode switch are clunky and difficult to access with fingers. Aimed at users who will be displaying their presentations via a projector or large display it offers a different view to the one being displayed.
The Presenter View enables the user to plan ahead by displaying notes about the slide and providing a preview of the next and offers various other controls, including a pen tool for drawing the audience's attention to a particular slide or detail. A new Navigation grid in Presenter View enables you to easily navigate between slides, while Slide Zoom allows you to zoom into a slide either with the finger-thumb "pinch" gesture or by clicking the mouse.
Zooming and swiping is common in PowerPoint For instance, there is a new dialogue box that sweeps in from the right-hand side of the screen, although curiously this isn't a design element that is carried across Office Although the use of fingers for editing presentations is not advised see above , viewing a PowerPoint presentation on a touchscreen tablet brings a whole new dimension to the finished product, enabling you to swipe left and right to navigate through the presentation, pinch or tap to zoom and overall enabling you to focus on the presentation.
The possibilities of impressing your audience by delivering a PowerPoint presentation through a handheld touchscreen device are evident! Although there isn't anything considerably different in PowerPoint , Microsoft has nevertheless introduced a few useful tools to improve the experience of creating a new presentation.
If you're using a modern laptop or a tablet, the chances are that it is a widescreen device. New templates in format have been added to the application and to Office.
Themes included in PowerPoint come with several variants, enabling you to change the color of backgrounds, headings, and other elements. You can think of these alterations as "sub-themes" and they add a new dimension to creating new presentations. Elsewhere, pictures, text boxes, and other elements can be easily aligned and arranged on a slide by dragging them into place, and color matching is made easier with the addition of an eyedropper tool.
You will have seen in the section about Microsoft Word that support for embedding online content has been added and the same is true in PowerPoint , with embedding available on the Insert tab. Along with the focus on the cloud as explained earlier and in more detail in Chapter 8 , PowerPoint boasts the same collaboration enhancements as Word.
Presented in a very similar manner, the upgraded comments are indicated by a small speech bubble, with a provision for inline replies. If you're using PowerPoint in a corporate setting and have Lync installed, the Presence system will let you know if collaborators are available to chat. Unlike Excel, PowerPoint enables multiple users to work on the same presentation at the same time with OneDrive, a corporate network and PowerPoint Web App as the source location.
The excellent Present Online tool has also undergone a revision; this makes it possible to webcast slideshows, and you can manage these via the Presenter View. Unfortunately for Outlook , the new look doesn't quite work. This is most evident when viewing the emails list pane, where a distinction between the displayed messages is less-than-clear.
Functionally, meanwhile, Outlook features a few overdue enhancements, such as inline replies in emails and the much-vaunted integration with Microsoft's recent acquisition, Skype. While the icons in the lower left corner have been replaced with Modern-esque buttons for Mail, Calendar, People and Tasks, the rest of the interface is limited to the theme chosen when you initially setup Office Traditionally, in Outlook, replies could only be written in a new window, activated when the Reply button was clicked.
With Outlook this has been revised at last! This saves some time, as do the majority of improvements in the email view. Many people opt to delete messages once read, and this has been made much simpler in Outlook with the provision of a contextual Delete button that appears when the mouse is hovering over a message.
Revisions to the new mail notifications in Windows 8, this is integrated with the operating system's own notification system result in less information, and no option to delete messages. The useful calendar preview displayed in the Outlook inbox view remains in Outlook , while the Calendar label now displays forthcoming appointments when the mouse hovers over it.
On the whole, however, little has changed in the calendar itself, which takes most of its update queues from Outlook. As a result, weather icons appear along a strip beneath the ribbon menu while the current time of day is indicated by a colored strip across the Daily and Weekly views.
Another Windows 8 influence is the renaming of the Outlook contacts list to People. In Outlook it duplicates the operating system app, unifying contacts from LinkedIn, Facebook and Windows Live, and enables the additional unification of duplicates into a single card.
Additionally, favorites from your People list can be added to the to-do bar on the right-hand of the Outlook window along with the calendar preview which is useful for checking their status or whereabouts. Like PowerPoint, Outlook features a so-called touch mode, but this is disappointing. To begin with, the small drop-down menu used to start touch mode requires the use of a mouse to access it! Once activated, Outlook's touch mode is little more than a simplified version of the main app, with the addition of a white border around various elements and some shortcut buttons along the side of the screen.
All in all, as touch-friendly apps go, Outlook isn't even close. Various touch gestures such as Calendar view's pinch-to-zoom, which switches between day, week and month work well, but Outlook's functionality is left wanting in touch mode.
If using Office on a Windows 8 tablet you might be better off relying on the native Mail, Calendar, and People apps Arguably the most underrated application in the Microsoft Office suite, OneNote features some useful enhancements including an alternative version for tablets. If you're not using OneNote already you really should consider it. Microsoft has released versions of this cloud-synced note-taking app for all popular mobile platforms, and its flexibility is such that if you haven't tried it already you'll probably keep going back to it once you do!
First introduced in Office , OneNote has evolved carefully over the years, reaching its current state of OneDrive-reliant syncing notebook that can be accessed from Windows Phones and other mobile devices. In OneNote there has been a slight reorganization of key tools but little to indicate a wholesale rethink of the application.
Making notes is easy thanks to the large notebook portion of the screen, while navigation through notebooks can be performed via a new dropdown menu that appears via an arrow below the notebook title.
Probably the most notable addition to OneNote comes with the improved spreadsheet tool, which enables you to create Excel tables within notebook pages. This is a long-awaited improvement on the previous tablet tool, and existing Excel documents can be embedded and edited, another overdue improvement. It's not just Excel that can be found embedded in OneNote -- Visio diagrams can also appear in your notes, with real-time, instant edits available, simply by double-clicking the embedded diagram, launching the main application and saving.
Touch in OneNote comes in two flavors. For standard use, the tiny Quick Access Toolbar again provides access to the Touch Mode button, and, as with Outlook , the implantation is of the slapdash, enlargement, and spacing out variety.
This is very much a touch-based application, featuring a circular menu system that wields formatting controls. A single tap of the word or phrase that requires editing displays an on-screen button that results in the menu, which cleverly offers access to a wide selection of controls in a limited space. OneNote MX also features a useful method of navigating through notebooks, sections, and pages by dragging them out in panels from the left side of the screen.
As good as this seems, OneNote MX isn't perfect. Sure, it's a step in the right direction, and you'll be hard-pressed to use your fingers to format text in the standard OneNote with such efficiency, but sadly there are a few key aspects missing from this version, such as the ability to record audio notes and the useful text-in-photos recognition tool.
Another key aspect of Office that is considerably different from previous versions of the productivity suite is the integration with OneDrive formerly known as SkyDrive , Microsoft's cloud storage system. More and more services have been incorporated into OneDrive over the past few months, from Windows 8 profiles to documents created in Microsoft Office Web Apps, so it should come as no surprise to learn that OneDrive is a storage option when you create and save files.
In fact, OneDrive is the default storage choice, whether you have an online Windows account or not. Office , like the new Windows, features close integration with Microsoft's free cloud storage service OneDrive.
It's that close that you always know when you're signed in, and although an advantage for many, you might prefer not to have your documents automatically saved to the cloud.
There are two ways to sign into Office , via a Microsoft account or using a network account for a school or business. Only the former will provide access to OneDrive, however the latter providing access to local cloud storage, perhaps through SharePoint. In any of the Office apps, switching to the File tab and opening Accounts displays the various services and accounts associated with your profile.
If you're using Windows 8 these might be plentiful. You may notice a Remove option -- note that this can only be used if there is another user account setup on the PC in question. However, you can prevent OneDrive from being the default save location. Depending on which version of Microsoft Office you purchase, you'll also be able to gain access to the more advanced tools, such as Access, InfoPath, Lync, Project, and Visio.
These tools are included in the more expensive collections and are aimed at small and medium-sized businesses that require databases, instant messaging, project management, diagramming and electronic form design. They're not aimed at students although Microsoft Access might prove useful to many and as a result, we're only going to cover the key updates introduced to each package in Microsoft Office Microsoft's popular desktop database management application Access is used for tasks as diverse as payroll to running websites.
Browser-based database apps can be built and deployed through Office or a corporate SharePoint server, with the option to add pre-designed table templates. If the features of Microsoft Word aren't enough to enable you to produce the type of documents that you want, Microsoft Publisher may be able to help.
As a desktop publishing application, Publisher is aimed at small businesses without the funds for a design specialist or a copy of QuarkXPress. The lack of compatibility with this and Adobe InDesign continue to make Publisher one of Microsoft's few niche products; the PUB format cannot be opened in other Microsoft applications or other office suites, for instance. Limitations aside, Publisher has been widely used in small business offices and the latest version adds some new features and a new look.
Along with the expected Modern-izing of the user interface, additional effects such as shadows, glows, and reflections can be added to text, pictures, and shapes, with new preset styles that can be set with a single click.
Again, images from the web can be added, and images can be set as page backgrounds. In addition to the standard applications that ship with the basic versions of Microsoft Office , there are additional components, such as InfoPath, Lync, Project, and Visio.
Rules and conditional formatting are among the new features in InfoPath , along with support for a wide variety of database formats. The latest version of the corporate online messenger Microsoft Lync features a selection of improvements to its collaboration tools, using whiteboard documents and PowerPoint presentations. Desktop and application sharing is also possible through Lync.
Microsoft has avoided any major revisions to Project other than the Modern UI and the addition of Project Portfolio Management, a flexible, online tool that can be used to manage projects "live" from a number of devices rather than relying on the more static, tradition interface.
Finally, we have Microsoft Visio The later Word 6 was a Windows port and poorly received. Many people continue to run Word 5. Document compatibility reached parity with Word 97, [29] and it included features from Word 97 for Windows, including spell and grammar checking with squiggles. Word , released in , added a few new features, including the Office Clipboard , which allowed users to copy and paste multiple items. Word X, released in , was the first version to run natively on, and required, Mac OS X, [40] and introduced non-contiguous text selection.
Word was released in May It included a new Notebook Layout view for taking notes either by typing or by voice. Word , released on January 15, , included a Ribbon-like feature, called the Elements Gallery, that can be used to select page layouts and insert custom diagrams and images. It also included a new view focused on publishing layout, integrated bibliography management, [45] and native support for the new Office Open XML format.
It was the first version to run natively on Intel-based Macs. Word , released in October , replaced the Elements Gallery in favor of a Ribbon user interface that is much more similar to Office for Windows, [47] and includes a full-screen mode that allows users to focus on reading and writing documents, and support for Office Web Apps. Word , added real-time co-authoring, automatic cloud saving, dark mode, immersive reader enhancements, line focus, a visual refresh, the ability to save pictures in SVG format, and a new Sketched style outline.
Microsoft Word's native file formats are denoted either by a. Although the. The classic Mac OS of the era did not use filename extensions. The newer. During the late s and early s, the default Word document format. DOC became a de facto standard of document file formats for Microsoft Office users. According to Joel Spolsky , Word Binary File Format is extremely complex mainly because its developers had to accommodate an overwhelming number of features and prioritize performance over anything else.
As with all OLE Compound Files, Word Binary Format consists of "storages", which are analogous to computer folders and "streams", which are similar to computer files. Each storage may contain streams or other storage. Word and later continue to support the DOC file format, although it is no longer the default. Opening a Word Document file in a version of Word other than the one with which it was created can cause an incorrect display of the document. The document formats of the various versions change in subtle and not so subtle ways such as changing the font or the handling of more complex tasks like footnotes.
Formatting created in newer versions does not always survive when viewed in older versions of the program, nearly always because that capability does not exist in the previous version. In October , one year before the Microsoft Office suite was released, Microsoft declared that there was insufficient demand from Microsoft customers for the international standard OpenDocument format support and that therefore it would not be included in Microsoft Office This statement was repeated in the following months.
This work was started in response to government requests for interoperability with ODF. The goal of project was not to add ODF support to Microsoft Office, but only to create a plugin and an external tool-set. Among its features, Word includes a built-in spell checker, a thesaurus, a dictionary, and utilities for manipulating and editing text. The following are some aspects of its feature set. Several later versions of Word include the ability for users to create their formatting templates, allowing them to define a file in which: the title, heading, paragraph, and other element designs differ from the standard Word templates.
For example, Normal. It determines the margin defaults as well as the layout of the text and font defaults. Although Normal. This will change other documents which were created using the template.
It can also be used to create and display simple line art. Microsoft Word added support [81] for the common SVG vector image format in for Office ProPlus subscribers and this functionality was also included in the Office release. WordArt enables drawing text in a Microsoft Word document such as a title, watermark, or other text, with graphical effects such as skewing, shadowing, rotating, stretching in a variety of shapes and colors, and even including three-dimensional effects.
Users can apply formatting effects such as shadow, bevel, glow, and reflection to their document text as easily as applying bold or underline. Users can also spell-check text that uses visual effects and add text effects to paragraph styles. A Macro is a rule of pattern that specifies how a certain input sequence often a sequence of characters should be mapped to an output sequence according to a defined process.
Frequently used or repetitive sequences of keystrokes and mouse movements can be automated. Like other Microsoft Office documents, Word files can include advanced macros and even embedded programs. This extensive functionality can also be used to run and propagate viruses in documents.
The tendency for people to exchange Word documents via email, USB flash drives , and floppy disks made this an especially attractive vector in A prominent example was the Melissa virus , but countless others have existed.
These macro viruses were the only known cross-platform threats between Windows and Macintosh computers and they were the only infection vectors to affect any macOS system up until the advent of video codec trojans in Word's macro security setting, which regulates when macros may execute, can be adjusted by the user, but in the most recent versions of Word, it is set to HIGH by default, generally reducing the risk from macro-based viruses, which have become uncommon.
Before Word Word 14 for Windows, the program was unable to correctly handle ligatures defined in OpenType fonts. Since Word , the program now has advanced typesetting features which can be enabled, [83] OpenType ligatures, [84] kerning and hyphenation previous versions already had the latter two features. Other layout deficiencies of Word include the inability to set crop marks or thin spaces. Various third-party workaround utilities have been developed.
In Word for Mac OS X, support of complex scripts was inferior even to Word 97 [86] and Word did not support Apple Advanced Typography features like ligatures or glyph variants. Microsoft word is only awkwardly suitable for some kinds of technical writing, specifically, that which requires: mathematical equations , figure placement, table placement and cross-references to any of these items.
The usual workaround for equations is to use a third-party equation typesetter. Figures and tables must be placed manually; there is an anchor mechanism but it is not designed for fully automatic figure placement and editing text after placing figures and tables often requires re-placing those items by moving the anchor point and even then the placement options are limited.
This problem is deeply baked into Word's structure since as it does not know where page breaks will occur until the document is printed. Microsoft Word supports bullet lists and numbered lists. It also features a numbering system that helps add correct numbers to pages, chapters, headers, footnotes, and entries of tables of content; these numbers automatically change to correct ones as new items are added or existing items are deleted. Bullets and numbering can be applied directly to paragraphs and converted to lists.
In particular, a second irrelevant numbered list might have not started with number one but instead resumed numbering after the last numbered list. Although Word 97 supported a hidden marker that said the list numbering must restart afterward, the command to insert this marker Restart Numbering command was only added in Word However, if one were to cut the first item of the listed and paste it as another item e.
Users can also create tables in Word. Depending on the version, Word can perform simple calculations — along with support for formulas and equations as well. Word continues to default to non-Unicode characters and non-hierarchical bulleting, despite user preference for Powerpoint-style symbol hierarchies e.
Available in certain versions of Word e. According to Ron Fein of the Word 97 team, AutoSummarize cuts wordy copy to the bone by counting words and ranking sentences. First, AutoSummarize identifies the most common words in the document barring "a" and "the" and the like and assigns a "score" to each word — the more frequently a word is used, the higher the score.
Then, it "averages" each sentence by adding the scores of its words and dividing the sum by the number of words in the sentence — the higher the average, the higher the rank of the sentence. AutoSummarize was removed from the Office release version 14 as well. Word Mobile is a word processor that allows creating and editing documents. It supports basic formatting, such as bolding, changing font size, and changing colors from red, yellow, or green.
It can add comments, but can't edit documents with tracked changes. It can't open password protected documents, change the typeface, text alignment, or style normal, heading 1 ; create bulleted lists; insert pictures; or undo. Word for the web is a free lightweight version of Microsoft Word available as part of Office on the web, which also includes web versions of Microsoft Excel and Microsoft PowerPoint.
Word for the web lacks some Ribbon tabs, such as Design and Mailings. Mailings allows users to print envelopes and labels and manage mail merge printing of Word documents. Certain advanced features like table sorting or columns will not be displayed but are preserved as they were in the document. Other views available in the Word desktop app Outline, Draft, Web Layout and Full Screen Reading are not available, nor are side-by-side viewing, split windows and the ruler.
The second and third password types were developed by Microsoft for convenient shared use of documents rather than for their protection.
There is no encryption of documents that are protected by such passwords and the Microsoft Office protection system saves a hash sum of a password in a document's header where it can be easily accessed and removed by the specialized software. Password to open a document offers much tougher protection that had been steadily enhanced in the subsequent editions of Microsoft Office. Word 95 and all the preceding editions had the weakest protection that utilized a conversion of a password to a bit key.
Key length in Word 97 and was strengthened up to 40 bit. However, modern cracking software allows removing such a password very quickly — a persistent cracking process takes one week at most.
Use of rainbow tables reduces password removal time to several seconds. Some password recovery software can not only remove a password but also find an actual password that was used by a user to encrypt the document using the brute-force attack approach. Statistically, the possibility of recovering the password depends on the password strength. Nonetheless, a password can be fairly quickly picked with a brute-force attack, because its speed is still high regardless of the CSP selected.
Moreover, since the CSPs are not active by default, their use is limited to advanced users only. Word offers significantly more secure document protection which utilizes the modern Advanced Encryption Standard AES that converts a password to a bit key using a SHA-1 hash function 50, times. It makes password removal impossible as of today, no computer that can pick the key in a reasonable amount of time exists and drastically slows the brute-force attack speed down to several hundreds of passwords per second.
Word's protection algorithm was not changed apart from the increasing number of SHA-1 conversions up to , times and consequently, the brute-force attack speed decreased two times more. Initial releases of Word were met with criticism.
Byte in criticized the documentation for Word 1. It called the software "clever, put together well and performs some extraordinary feats", but concluded that "especially when operated with the mouse, has many more limitations than benefits While the review cited an excellent WYSIWYG display, sophisticated print formatting, windows, and footnoting as merits, it criticized many small flaws, very slow performance, and "documentation produced by Madame Sadie's Pain Palace".
It concluded that Word was "two releases away from potential greatness". It's like a Mozart or Edison , whose occasional gaucherie we excuse because of his great gifts".
