Word
Wrap |
|
 |
| The insertion
point is the flashing vertical line that
indicates where changes will be made to a document |
| to understand this, open a word
document, and begin typing. You will see that as
you add text, the insertion point moves to the
right. |
| Word wrap
is the feature that moves text to a new line when
it has reached the end of the current
line. |
| To see this feature, keep typing in
your document until you see a new line begin, and
observe how the insertion point move automatically
jumps to the next line |

# 2 |
hard
and soft returns |
 |
| Soft
returns are created by the word wrap
function. They are found at the point where
text reaches the end of one line, and is moved to
the next. |
| The end of the first five lines in
the accompanying picture are examples of soft
returns. Also, in the above example, the
point where your text was moved to the next line
is also an example of a soft return. |
| Hard
returns are created by pressing the enter
key when you want to start a new line of
text. |
| In the document you are typing
press the enter key, and observe how the insertion
point moves to a new line. |
