Microsoft Word is a popular word processing program used to create documents like letters, brochures, homework assignments, and tests. It has simple but useful features that make studying and working easier, such as the ability to bold text by selecting it and clicking the Bold button on the Home tab or Mini toolbar, or using the CTRL+B keyboard shortcut. Images can also be inserted into Word documents by clicking where you want the picture, accessing the Insert Picture dialog box, browsing to the desired photo, clicking Insert, and modifying the picture if needed.
