Microsoft Word is a powerful word processing application which allows users to produce professional typed documents in a wide range of formats, from letters and cover sheets to reference manuals, newsletters, and sophisticated graphical reports. Developing a proficiency in Microsoft Word is integral for any business, secretarial, or administrative professional.
