How do I highlight text in a document?

RE: Formatting

Hi Juliet,
Thank you for your question:
In reply:
There are a number of different ways of highlighting text. The most common is to click and drag across the required elements. However:
To highlight a single word = double click on the word
To highlight a sentance = Hold down CTRL key and click in sentance
To highlight a line of text = In the selection bar (left of text) point at the line and click
To highlight multiple lines = In the selection bar (left of text) point at first line hold down left mouse button and move mouse down required number of lines.
To highlight a paragraph = In the selection bar (left of text) point at the paragraph and double click
To select the entire document = CTRL+A or in the selection bar point at the text and triple click

I hope that helps ... Pete

What is the Ribbon used for in Word 2010

In Word 2010, the Ribbon cleverly replaces the drop down menus and toolbars from previous versions of Word. So it allows easy and more visible
access to options which were previously hidden in various menus.

The ribbon is made up of: Tabs, Groups and Commands. When you select a tab you
will see that the ribbon will change to show groups and commands which are relevant to the activity covered by that tab.
