Sometimes it is handy to be able to split the screen in Word in two (particularly with long documents). Look at the very top of the scrollbar on the right side of the screen and you will see a small grey shaped _ button. It isn't easy to see but the upward arrow button is directly below it. Click and hold the button and drag your mouse down the screen and release. Your document is now in two separate areas.

Donwloading and Installing Fonts (Windows XP and Windows 200)
Because fonts work with a PC's operating system, they are not downloaded to Office directly. Use the Font Control Panel in Windows and then it will work with Office automatically.
Many websites offering fonts package them in .zip files to reduce file size and make downloading faster. If you have downloaded a font that is saved in a .zip format, you can "unzip" it by double-clicking the icon for the font and following the instructions on the screen.
Once you have selected a font to install, download it from the internet by following the instructions on the website and install it through the operating system on your pc. Select one of the file download locations, click on the link, and then follow the instructions in the File Download dialogue boxes to complete the download to your hard disk drive. You may also want to make a note of where you have saved the download, so that you can easily navigate to it when you install the font through the operating system. Add the font to your computer through the operating system.
Here's how -
IF YOU ARE USING MICROSOFT WINDOWS XP:
1. On the Start Menu, click on the Control Panel.
2. In the Control Panel, double-click on Fonts.
3. On the File Menu, click on Install New Font.
4. Navigate to the location where you saved the downloaded or unzipped font and, in the List of Fonts box, click on the font you want to add.
5. Click OK.
IF YOU ARE USING MICROSOFT WINDOWS 2000
1. On the Start Menu, point to Settings and then click on Control Panel.
2. On the Control Panel, double-click on Fonts.
3. On the File Menu, click on Install New Font.
4. Navigate to the location where you saved the downloaded or unzipped font and, in the List of Fonts Box, click on the font you want to add.
5. Click OK.

Safer Saving
In Microsoft Word, it is possible to make the progam save a backup copy of a document every time it is saved. This means that if you accidentally save a change that you didn't want, an earlier version can be recovered from a file that is saved alongside your current file.
To do this, open the File Menu and select Save As. In the dialogue that comes up, click on the Tools Button and, depending on your version of Word, select either General Options or Save Options from the list. When the Save dialogue box opens, tick the checkbox labelled 'Always create backup copy' and press OK.
