Business Computing Tips

The next few K-Tips will cover the commands on the INSERT part of the pull
down menus in word.
The first of these is the BREAK. This allows you to force the text to stop
and go on to the next page or next column. Just click on INSERT, then BREAK,
then on the type of break you want.
The first option is Page Break. This means that, as many do, you do not
have to hit enter until you get to the bottom of the page to force the next
paragraph to print out at the top of a new page. Often this can take time and
mean that when you write some more, all the formatting gets moved around
again.
Page Break also has some options. Next Page, forces the text to start again
at the top of the next page. Continuous, lets you mark a place where there is
a break without actually making the text go anywhere. That is useful for
marking out areas without wasting paper.
The Even or Odd Page Break allows you to put the new page on a specific
side of an open book format. This is very useful if you want the new page to
always start on the left for example.
Column Breaks force text in columns to go to the start of the next column.
Works very much the same as a page break. Text wrapping break is the same but
for text around pictures or other items inserted into your document.
Next K-Tips, we will cover INSERT => Symbol, Comment and Footnote.
