Creating Documents

When you start Word 2010 without opening an existing document, a new blank document is

displayed, ready for you to enter your content. You can also create a new document while Word

2010 is running. The cursor, a blinking vertical line in the upper-left corner of the page, shows

where the next character you type will appear. When the cursor reaches the right margin, the

word you are typing automatically moves to the next line. Pressing the Enter key starts a new

paragraph.

To create a new document:

1. Click the File tab, and then click New. The New page of the Backstage view displays

thumbnails of the available templates and template categories (see Figure 8).

2. Under Available Templates, click Blank document.

3. Click the Create button. A new blank document opens in a new window.

NOTE: You can also press Ctrl+N to create a new document.
