Unlike its Office 2003 counterparts Excel and PowerPoint, Word 2003 does not let you rearrange document windows within a single program window.
Unless you change the default view option, each Word documents exists in its own window with its own menus and toolbars.
Consequently, when you use Arrange All to compare three documents on the screen at once, it looks like Figure A.
Figure A
To remove the screen clutter, follow these steps:
- Go to Tools | Options.
- Click the View tab, then deselect the Windows In Taskbar check box (Figure B) and click OK.
Figure B
Now all three documents will display without the clutter, as shown in Figure C.

To keep employees informed of their progress, you might keep a worksheet like the one inFigure A, which tracks the completion rates of assigned tasks.
Figure A
Just listing the completion rates, however, makes it hard to compare one task with another. It's easier to monitor results when they are presented graphically. Follow these steps.
- Select D2:C11.
- Enter the following formula (Figure B):
=REPT("|",C2*100)Figure B
- Press Ctrl + Enter.
The comparative results are now shown graphically, as shown in Figure C.

(Note that you can use any symbol for "|" in the formula. )
What do you do when someone hands you an application to fill out or when you need to fill out a printed tax form? If you don't have a typewriter, you probably fill in the form manually, hoping that the recipient can read your handwriting.
Fortunately, you can use Word to "type it in" instead. Follow these steps:
- Scan the form and save it as a picture to your My Pictures folder, or any folder where your picture files are kept. For this example, I scanned a tax form and saved it as a .PNG picture (Figure A).
Figure A
- Open a blank document in Word.
- Go to View | Header and Footer. (In Word 2007, double-click in the Header pane of your document.)
- Go to Insert | Picture and then click From File. (In Word 2007, position the insertion point in the Header pane, click the Insert tab, and then click Picture in the Illustrations group.)
- Navigate to the file containing your form and click the Insert button.
- Crop, resize, and reposition the picture as necessary to fit the page.
- Right-click the picture, go to Format Picture, and click the Behind Text option. (In Word 2007, make sure the form is still selected. Then, under Picture Tools in the Format tab, click Text Wrapping in the Arrange group and choose Behind Text.)
- Double-click anywhere in the document outside of the Header pane. You can then enter the desired text. (Figure B).

To type the data as shown, I decreased the font size to 9, changed the paragraph formatting to single line spacing, and applied 0 spacing before and after the paragraph. This made it easier to use the Enter key to move from one line to another, as if I were using a typewriter.
Displaying an introductory or welcome slide while your audience arrives for a presentation is common. You might display general information or a friendly hello.
Usually, you display just one slide and the presentation doesn't progress until you begin the presentation manually. This setup is okay, but to generate a bit more interest, you might want to display more than one introductory slide--call it a mini presentation if you like.
That way, you'll have the attention and interest of your audience before you even begin.
Two presentations in one
While the audience enters the room and finds a seat, they may chat with one another, help themselves to refreshments, or sit quietly and wait for the show. Regardless, most will be thinking about other things, and not your presentation.
The one-slide introduction that says welcome and displays pretty flowers is quaint, but it won't grab anyone's attention as they enter the room, and it certainly won't keep anyone's interest while they wait. ...
