Working with documents
Documents are commonly word processing files, spreadsheet files, or other
similar files. The basic methods of creating, saving, opening, and printing a
document apply to most of these types of files.
The following examples illustrate the concepts for creating, saving, opening,
and printing a document in Microsoft
®

Microsoft Word, similar procedures apply to other programs such as Microsoft
Excel, Microsoft Works, and Microsoft Publisher.
