Step 4: Insert and Delete Text
Microsoft Word Insert and Delete
1 Open another new document (see Step 3)
The Title Bar (FIRST bar - Step 2) of this new document displays "Microsoft Word - Document 4"
2 Learn to type
You are going to DELETE "lessons". This is easy because your cursor IS flashing where you want to take this action (ie, after the letter "s" in the word "lessons")
3 Hit the Backspace key on your keyboard (two keys ABOVE your Enter key) seven times to remove "lessons" and, then, one more time to remove the space
Now, after the words "Learn to type", you are going to INSERT the words "in 2 hours". The cursor is NOT flashing where you want to take this action, so you need to:
4 Position your mouse pointer to the left of the word "with" and click. Is your cursor flashing (move your mouse pointer away to see it clearly)?
5 Type the words "in 2 hours" and hit the space bar (the long bar on the bottom row of your keyboard) once
You are going to CHANGE the word "with" to the word "using". Your cursor IS flashing where you want to take this action
6 Hit the Delete key on your keyboard (up one row and to the right of Enter) four times to remove the word "with"
7 Type the word "using"
To INSERT text, position your mouse pointer and click. Then, type. To DELETE, use your Backspace key to delete to the LEFT and Delete key to delete to the RIGHT
