Proofing features

Worried about making mistakes when you type? Don't be. Word provides you with several proofing
features that will help you produce professional, error-free documents. In this lesson, you will learn
about the various proofing features, including the Spelling & Grammar tool.

Using proofing features


Line colors
By default, Word automatically checks your document for spelling and grammar errors. These errors
are indicated by colored wavy lines.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 18


MS.OFFICE B.Com

 The blue line indicates a contextual spelling error.


o A contextual spelling error is when an incorrect spelling of a word is chosen. For
example, if you write Deer Mr. Theodore at the beginning of a letter, deer is a contextual
spelling error because dear should have been used. Deer is spelled correctly, but it is used
incorrectly in this letter.
 The red line indicates a misspelled word.
 The green line indicates a grammatical error.

To use the spelling check feature:


 Right-click the underlined word. A menu will appear.
 Select the correct spelling of the word from the listed suggestions.
 Left-click your mouse on the word. It will appear in the document.

1. Position the cursor over the row line so the white cross becomes a double arrow .

2. Click, hold, and drag the mouse to increase or decrease the row height.

3. Release the mouse. The height of the selected row will be changed.

To modify all rows or columns:

Rather than resizing rows and columns individually, you can modify the height and width of every row
and column at the same time. This method allows you to set a uniform size for every row and column in
your worksheet. In our example, we will set a uniform row height.

1. Locate and click the Select All button just below the formula bar to select every cell in the
worksheet.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 72


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. Position the mouse over a row line so the white cross becomes a double arrow .

Inserting, deleting, moving, and hiding rows and columns

After you've been working with a workbook for a while, you may find that you want to insert
new columns or rows, delete certain rows or columns, move them to a different location in the
worksheet, or even hide them.

To insert rows:

1. Select the row heading below where you want the new row to appear. For example, if you
want to insert a row between rows 7 and 8, select row 8.

2. Click the Insert command on the Home tab.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 74


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The new row will appear above the selected row.

When inserting new rows, columns, or cells, you will see the Insert Options button next to the
inserted cells. This button allows you to choose how Excel formats these cells. By default, Excel
formats inserted rows with the same formatting as the cells in the row above. To access more
options, hover your mouse over the Insert Options button, then click the drop-down arrow.

To insert columns:

1. Select the column heading to the right of where you want the new column to appear. For
example, if you want to insert a column between columns D and E, select column E.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 75


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. Click the Insert command on the Home tab.

3. The new column will appear to the left of the selected column.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 76


MS.OFFICE B.Com

When inserting rows and columns, make sure you select the entire row or column by clicking
the heading.If you select only a cell in the row or column, the Insert command will only insert a new
cell.

To delete rows:

It's easy to delete any row that you no longer need in your workbook.

1. Select the row(s) you want to delete. In our example, we'll select rows 6-8.

2. Click the Delete command on the Home tab.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 77


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The selected row(s) will be deleted, and the rows below will shift up. In our example, rows 9-
11 are now rows 6-8.

To delete columns:

1. Select the columns(s) you want to delete. In our example, we'll select column E.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 78


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. Click the Delete command on the Home tab.

3. The selected columns(s) will be deleted, and the columns to the right will shift left. In our
example, Column F is now Column E.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 79


MS.OFFICE B.Com

It's important to understand the difference between deleting a row or column and
simply clearing its contents. If you want to remove the content of a row or column without
causing others to shift, right-click a heading, then select Clear Contents from the drop-down menu.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 80


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To move a row or column:

Sometimes you may want to move a column or row to rearrange the content of your worksheet. In our
example we'll move a column, but you can move a row in the same way.

1. Select the desired column heading for the column you want to move, then click
the Cut command on the Home tab or press Ctrl+X on your keyboard.

2. Select the column heading to the right of where you want to move the column. For example, if
you want to move a column between columns B and C, select column C.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 81


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. Click the Insert command on the Home tab, then select Insert Cut Cells from the drop-down
menu.

4. The column will be moved to the selected location, and the columns to the right
will shift right.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 82


MS.OFFICE B.Com

You can also access the Cut and Insert commands by right-clicking the mouse and then selecting
the desired commands from the drop-down menu.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 83


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To hide and unhide a row or column:

At times, you may want to compare certain rows or columns without changing the organization of your
worksheet. Excel allows you to hide rows and columns as needed. In our example, we'll hide columns C
and D to make it easier to compare columns A, B, and E.

1. Select the column(s) you want to hide, right-click the mouse, then select Hide from
the formatting menu.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 84


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. The columns will be hidden. The green column line indicates the location of the hidden
columns.

3. To unhide the columns, select the columns to the left and right of the hidden columns (in
other words, the columns on both sides of the hidden columns). In our example, we'll select
columns B and E.
4. Right-click the mouse, then select Unhide from the formatting menu. The hidden columns will
reappear.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 85


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Wrapping text and merging cells

Whenever you have too much cell content to be displayed in a single cell, you may decide to wrap the
text or merge the cell rather than resize a column. Wrapping the text will automatically modify a
cell's row height, allowing cell contents to be displayed on multiple lines. Merging allows you to
combine a cell with adjacent empty cells to create one large cell.

To wrap text in cells:

In our example below, we'll wrap the text of the cells in column D so the entire address can be displayed.

1. Select the cells you want to wrap. In this example, we'll select the cells in column D.

2. Select the Wrap Text command on the Home tab.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 86


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The text in the selected cells will be wrapped.

Click the Wrap Text command again to unwrap the text.

To merge cells using the Merge & Center command:

In our example below, we'll merge cell A1 with cells B1:E1 to create a title heading for our worksheet.

1. Select the cell range you want to merge.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 87


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. Select the Merge & Center command on the Home tab.

3. The selected cells will be merged, and the text will be centered.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 88


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To access more merge options:

Click the drop-down arrow next to the Merge & Center command on the Home tab. The Merge drop-
down menu will appear. From here, you can choose to:

 Merge & Center: Merges the selected cells into one cell and centers the text
 Merge Across: Merges the selected cells into larger cells while keeping each row separate
 Merge Cells: Merges the selected cells into one cell but does not center the text
 Unmerge Cells: Unmerges selected cells

help distinguish them from the rest of the worksheet.

To add a fill color:

1. Select the cell(s) you want to modify.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 98


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. On the Home tab, click the drop-down arrow next to the Fill Color command, then select the fill
color you want to use. In our example, we'll choose a dark gray.

3. The selected fill color will appear in the selected cells. We've also changed the font color to white to
make it more readable with this dark fill color.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 99


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To add a border:

1. Select the cell(s) you want to modify.

2. On the Home tab, click the drop-down arrow next to the Borders command, then select
the border style you want to use. In our example, we'll choose to display All Borders.

3. The selected border style will appear.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 100


MS.OFFICE B.Com

You can draw borders and change the line style and color of borders with the Draw
Borders tools at the bottom of the Borders drop-down menu.

Cell styles

Instead of formatting cells manually, you can use Excel's predesigned cell styles. Cell styles
are a quick way to include professional formatting for different parts of your workbook, such
as titles and headers.

To apply a cell style:

In our example, we'll apply a new cell style to our existing title and header cells.

1. Select the cell(s) you want to modify.

2. Click the Cell Styles command on the Home tab, then choose the desired style from the drop-down
menu.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 101


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The selected cell style will appear.

Applying a cell style will replace any existing cell formatting except for text alignment. You
may not want to use cell styles if you've already added a lot of formatting to your workbook.

Text alignment

By default, any text entered into your worksheet will be aligned to the bottom-left of a cell,
while any numbers will be aligned to the bottom-right. Changing the alignmentof your cell
content allows you to choose how the content is displayed in any cell, which can make your cell
content easier to read.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 102


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Click the arrows in the slideshow below to learn more about the different text alignment
options.

To change horizontal text alignment:

In our example below, we'll modify the alignment of our title cell to create a more polished
look and further distinguish it from the rest of the worksheet.

1. Select the cell(s) you want to modify.

2. Select one of the three horizontal alignment commands on the Home tab. In our example, we'll
choose Center Align.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 104


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The text will realign.

To change vertical text alignment:

1. Select the cell(s) you want to modify.

2. Select one of the three vertical alignment commands on the Home tab. In our example, we'll
choose Middle Align.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 105


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The text will realign.

You can apply both vertical and horizontal alignment settings to any cell.

When working with a lot of data in Excel, it can be difficult and time consuming to locate
specific information. You can easily search your workbook using the Findfeature, which also
allows you to modify content using the Replace feature.

.To find content:

In our example, we'll use the Find command to locate a specific department in this list.

1. From the Home tab, click the Find and Select command, then select Find from the drop-down menu.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 106


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. The Find and Replace dialog box will appear. Enter the content you want to find. In our example, we'll
type the department's name.
3. Click Find Next. If the content is found, the cell containing that content will be selected.

4. Click Find Next to find further instances or Find All to see every instance of the search term.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 107


MS.OFFICE B.Com

5. When you are finished, click Close to exit the Find and Replace dialog box.

You can also access the Find command by pressing Ctrl+F on your keyboard.

Click Options to see advanced search criteria in the Find and Replace dialog box.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 108


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To replace cell content:

At times, you may discover that you've repeatedly made a mistake throughout your workbook
(such as misspelling someone's name) or that you need to exchange a particular word or
phrase for another. You can use Excel's Find and Replace feature to make quick revisions. In
our example, we'll use Find and Replace to correct a list of department names.

1. From the Home tab, click the Find and Select command, then select Replacefrom the drop-down
menu.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 109


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. The Find and Replace dialog box will appear. Type the text you want to find in the Find what: field.
3. Type the text you want to replace it with in the Replace with: field, then click Find Next.

4. If the content is found, the cell containing that content will be selected.
5. Review the text to make sure you want to replace it.
6. If you want to replace it, select one of the replace options. Choosing Replacewill replace individual
instances, while Replace All will replace every instance of the text throughout the workbook. In our
example, we'll choose this option to save time.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 110


MS.OFFICE B.Com

7. A dialog box will appear, confirming the number of replacements made. Click OK to continue.

8. The selected cell content will be replaced.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 111


MS.OFFICE B.Com

9. When you are finished, click Close to exit the Find and Replace dialog box.

Generally, it's best to avoid using Replace All because it doesn't give you the option of
skipping anything you don't want to change. You should only use this option if you're
absolutely sure it won't replace anything you didn't intend it to.

Mathematical operators

Excel uses standard operators for formulas, such as a plus sign for addition (+), a minus
sign for subtraction (-), an asterisk for multiplication (*), a forward slash for division (/), and
a caret (^) for exponents.

All formulas in Excel must begin with an equals sign (=). This is because the cell contains, or is
equal to, the formula and the value it calculates.

Understanding cell references

While you can create simple formulas in Excel using numbers (for example, =2+2 or =5*5),
most of the time you will use cell addresses to create a formula. This is known as making
a cell reference. Using cell references will ensure that your formulas are always accurate
because you can change the value of referenced cells without having to rewrite the formula.

In the formula below, cell A3 adds the values of cells A1 and A2 by making cell references:

When you press Enter, the formula calculates and displays the answer in cell A3:

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 113


MS.OFFICE B.Com

If the values in the referenced cells change, the formula automatically recalculates:

By combining a mathematical operator with cell references, you can create a variety of simple
formulas in Excel. Formulas can also include a combination of cell references and numbers, as
in the examples below:

To create a formula:

In our example below, we'll use a simple formula and cell references to calculate a budget.

1. Select the cell that will contain the formula. In our example, we'll select cell D12.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 114


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. Type the equals sign (=). Notice how it appears in both the cell and the formula bar.

3. Type the cell address of the cell you want to reference first in the formula: cell D10 in our example.
A blue border will appear around the referenced cell.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 115


MS.OFFICE B.Com

4. Type the mathematical operator you want to use. In our example, we'll type the addition sign (+).
5. Type the cell address of the cell you want to reference second in the formula: cell D11 in our example.
A red border will appear around the referenced cell.

6. Press Enter on your keyboard. The formula will be calculated, and the valuewill be displayed in the
cell. If you select the cell again, notice that the cell displays the result, while the formula bar displays
the formula.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 116


MS.OFFICE B.Com

If the result of a formula is too large to be displayed in a cell, it may appear as pound
signs (#######) instead of a value. This means the column is not wide enough to display the
cell content. Simply increase the column width to show the cell content.

Modifying values with cell references

The true advantage of cell references is that they allow you to update data in your worksheet
without having to rewrite formulas. In the example below, we've modified the value of cell D1
from $1,200 to $1,800. The formula in D3 will automatically recalculate and display the new
value in cell D3.

Excel will not always tell you if your formula contains an error, so it's up to you to check all of
your formulas. To learn how to do this, you can read the Double-Check Your Formulas lesson
from our Excel Formulas tutorial.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 117


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To create a formula using the point-and-click method:

Instead of typing cell addresses manually, you can point and click the cells you want to
include in your formula. This method can save a lot of time and effort when creating formulas.
In our example below, we'll create a formula to calculate the cost of ordering several boxes of
plastic silverware.

1. Select the cell that will contain the formula. In our example, we'll select cell D4.

2. Type the equals sign (=).


3. Select the cell you want to reference first in the formula: cell B4 in our example. The cell address will
appear in the formula.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 118


MS.OFFICE B.Com

4. Type the mathematical operator you want to use. In our example, we'll type the multiplication sign
(*).
5. Select the cell you want to reference second in the formula: cell C4 in our example. The cell
address will appear in the formula.

6. Press Enter on your keyboard. The formula will be calculated, and the valuewill be displayed in the
cell.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 119


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Copying formulas with the fill handle

Formulas can also be copied to adjacent cells with the fill handle, which can save a lot of time
and effort if you need to perform the same calculation multiple times in a worksheet. The fill
handle is the small square at the bottom-right corner of the selected cell(s).

1. Select the cell containing the formula you want to copy. Click and drag the fill handle over the cells you
want to fill.

2. After you release the mouse, the formula will be copied to the selected cells.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 120


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To edit a formula:

Sometimes you may want to modify an existing formula. In the example below, we've entered
an incorrect cell address in our formula, so we'll need to correct it.

1. Select the cell containing the formula you want to edit. In our example, we'll select cell D12.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 121


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. Click the formula bar to edit the formula. You can also double-click the cell to view and edit the
formula directly within the cell.

3. A border will appear around any referenced cells. In our example, we'll change the first part of the
formula to reference cell D10 instead of cell D9.

4. When you're finished, press Enter on your keyboard or select the Entercommand in the formula bar.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 122


MS.OFFICE B.Com

5. The formula will be updated, and the new value will be displayed in the cell.

If you change your mind, you can press the Esc key on your keyboard or click
the Cancel command in the formula bar to avoid accidentally making changes to your formula.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 123


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To show all of the formulas in a spreadsheet, you can hold the Ctrl key and press `(grave
accent). The grave accent key is usually located in the top-left corner of the keyboard. You can
press Ctrl+` again to switch back to the normal view.

To illustrate Excel's most popular financial functions, we consider a loan with monthly payments, an annual
interest rate of 6%, a 20-year duration, a present value of $150,000 (amount borrowed) and a future value of 0
(that's what you hope to achieve when you pay off a loan).
We make monthly payments, so we use 6%/12 = 0.5% for Rate and 20*12 = 240 for Nper (total number of
periods). If we make annual payments on the same loan, we use 6% for Rate and 20 for Nper.
Pmt
Select cell A2 and insert the PMT function.

Note: The last two arguments are optional. For loans the Fv can be omitted (the future value of a loan equals 0,
however, it's included here for clarification). If Type is omitted, it is assumed that payments are due at the end
of the period.

Result. The monthly payment equals $1,074.65.

Tip: when working with financial functions in Excel, always ask yourself the question, am I making a payment
(negative) or am I receiving money (positive)? We pay off a loan of $150,000 (positive, we received that
amount) and we make monthly payments of $1,074.65 (negative, we pay).
Rate

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 124


MS.OFFICE B.Com

If Rate is the only unknown variable, we can use the RATE function to calculate the interest rate.

Nper
Or the NPER function. If we make monthly payments of $1,074.65 on a 20-year loan, with an annual interest
rate of 6%, it takes 240 months to pay off this loan.

We already knew this, but we can change the monthly payment now to see how this affects the total number of
periods.

Conclusion: if we make monthly payments of $2,074.65, it takes less than 90 months to pay off this loan.
Pv
Or the PV (Present Value) function. If we make monthly payments of $1,074.65 on a 20-year loan, with an
annual interest rate of 6%, how much can we borrow? You already know the answer.

Fv

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 125


MS.OFFICE B.Com

And we finish this chapter with the FV (Future Value) function. If we make monthly payments of $1,074.65 on a
20-year loan, with an annual interest rate of 6%, do we pay off this loan? Yes.

But, if we make monthly payments of only $1,000.00, we still have debt after 20 years.

If you've previously used PowerPoint 2010 or 2007, PowerPoint 2013 will feel familiar. It continues to
use features like the Ribbon and the Quick Access toolbar—where you will find commands to perform
common tasks in PowerPoint—as well as Backstage view.

The Ribbon

PowerPoint 2013 uses a tabbed Ribbon system instead of traditional menus. The
Ribbon contains multiple tabs, each with several groups of commands. You will use these tabs to
perform the most common tasks in PowerPoint.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 130


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Exploring the Ribbon

You'll need to move between tabs to perform common tasks in PowerPoint. Knowing where to find the
right command will make PowerPoint easier to use.

Click the arrows in the slideshow below to learn more about the different commands available
within each tab on the Ribbon.


The Home tab gives you access to the most commonly used commands, including copy and
paste, formatting, and the New Slide command. The Home tab is selected by default whenever you open
PowerPoint.

Introduction

Video: Creating and Opening Presentations

PowerPoint files are called presentations. Whenever you start a new project in PowerPoint, you'll need
to create a new presentation, which can either be blank or from a template. You'll also need to know
how to open an existing presentation.

To create a new presentation:

1. Select the File tab to go to Backstage view.

2. Select New on the left side of the window, then click Blank Presentation or choose a theme.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 138


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. A new presentation will appear.

To open an existing presentation:

1. Select the File tab to go to Backstage view.


2. Select Open.

3. Select Computer, then click Browse. Alternatively, you can choose OneDrive (previously
known as SkyDrive) to open files stored on your OneDrive.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 139


MS.OFFICE B.Com

4. The Open dialog box will appear. Locate and select your presentation, then click Open.

If you've opened the desired presentation recently, you can browse your Recent
Presentations instead of searching for the file.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 140


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To pin a presentation:

If you frequently work with the same presentation, you can pin it to Backstage view for easy access.

1. Select the File tab to go to Backstage view. Click Open. Your Recent Presentations will
appear.
2. Hover the mouse over the presentation you want to pin. A pushpin icon will appear next
to the presentation. Click the pushpin icon.

3. The presentation will stay in Recent Presentations. To unpin a presentation, simply click the
pushpin icon again.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 141


MS.OFFICE B.Com

You can also pin folders to Backstage view for easy access. From Backstage view, click Open, locate
the folder you want to pin, then click the pushpin icon.

Using templates

A template is a predesigned presentation you can use to create a new slide show quickly. Templates
often include custom formatting and designs, so they can save you a lot of time and effort when
starting a new project.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 142


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To create a new presentation from a template:

1. Click the File tab to access Backstage view.


2. Select New. You can click a suggested search to find templates or use the search bar to find
something more specific. In our example, we'll search for Business presentations.

3. Select a template to review it.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 143


MS.OFFICE B.Com

4. A preview of the template will appear, along with additional information on how the
template can be used.
5. Click Create to use the selected template.

6. A new presentation will appear with the selected template.

It's important to note that not all templates are created by Microsoft. Many are created by third-
party providers and even individual users, so some templates may work better than others.

Compatibility mode

Sometimes you may need to work with presentations that were created in earlier versions of
PowerPoint, such as PowerPoint 2003 or PowerPoint 2000. When you open these types of
presentations, they will appear in Compatibility mode.

Compatibility mode disables certain features, so you'll only be able to access commands found in the
program that was used to create the presentation. For example, if you open a presentation created in
PowerPoint 2003, you can only use tabs and commands found in PowerPoint 2003.

In the image below, you can see that the presentation is in Compatibility mode. This will disable some
PowerPoint 2013 features, such as newer types of slide transitions.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 144


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To exit Compatibility mode, you'll need to convert the presentation to the current version type.
However, if you're collaborating with others who only have access to an earlier version of PowerPoint,
it's best to leave the presentation in Compatibility mode so the format will not change.

You can review this support page from Microsoft to learn more about which features are disabled
in Compatibility mode.

To convert a presentation:

If you want access to all PowerPoint 2013 features, you can convert the presentation to the 2013 file
format.

Note that converting a file may cause some changes to the original layout of the presentation.

1. Click the File tab to access Backstage view.

2. Locate and select the Convert command.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 145


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The Save As dialog box will appear. Select the location where you want to save the
presentation, enter a file name, and click Save.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 146


MS.OFFICE B.Com

4. The presentation will be converted to the newest file type.

Save and Save As

PowerPoint offers two ways to save a file: Save and Save As. These options work in similar ways, with a
few important differences:

 Save: When you create or edit a presentation, you'll use the Save command to save your
changes. You'll use this command most of the time. When you save a file, you'll only need to
choose a file name and location the first time. After that, you can just click the Save command to
save it with the same name and location.
 Save As: You'll use this command to create a copy of a presentation while keeping the original.
When you use Save As, you'll need to choose a different name and/or location for the copied
version.

To save a presentation:

It's important to save your presentation whenever you start a new project or make changes to an
existing one. Saving early and often can prevent your work from being lost. You'll also need to pay close
attention to where you save the presentation so it will be easy to find later.

1. Locate and select the Save command on the Quick Access toolbar.

2. If you're saving the file for the first time, the Save As pane will appear in Backstage view.
3. You'll then need to choose where to save the file and give it a file name. To save the
presentation to your computer, select Computer, then click Browse. Alternatively, you can
click OneDrive to save the file to your OneDrive.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 147


MS.OFFICE B.Com

4. The Save As dialog box will appear. Select the location where you want to save the
presentation.
5. Enter a file name for the presentation, then click Save.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 148


MS.OFFICE B.Com

6. The presentation will be saved. You can click the Save command again to save your changes as
you modify the presentation.

You can also access the Save command by pressing Ctrl+S on your keyboard.

Using Save As to make a copy

If you want to save a different version of a presentation while keeping the original, you can create
a copy. For example, if you have a file named Client Presentation you could save it as Client
Presentation 2 so you'll be able to edit the new file and still refer back to the original version.

To do this, you'll click the Save As command in Backstage view. Just like when saving a file for the first
time, you'll need to choose where to save the file and give it a new file name.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 149


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To change the default save location:

If you don't want to use OneDrive, you may be frustrated that OneDrive is selected as the default
location when saving. If you find it inconvenient to select Computer each time, you can change
the default save location so Computer is selected by default.

1. Click the File tab to access Backstage view.

2. Click Options.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 150


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The PowerPoint Options dialog box will appear. Select Save, check the box next to Save to
Computer by default, then click OK. The default save location will be changed.

Using AutoRecover

PowerPoint automatically saves your presentations to a temporary folder while you are working on
them. If you forget to save your changes or if PowerPoint crashes, you can restore the file
using AutoRecover.

To use AutoRecover:

1. Open PowerPoint 2013. If autosaved versions of a file are found,


the Document Recovery pane will appear.
2. Click to open an available file. The presentation will be recovered.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 151


MS.OFFICE B.Com

By default, PowerPoint autosaves every 10 minutes. If you are editing a presentation for less than 10
minutes, PowerPoint may not create an autosaved version.

If you don't see the file you need, you can browse all autosaved files from Backstage view. Just
select theFile tab, click Manage Versions, then choose Recover Unsaved Presentations.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 152


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Exporting presentations

By default, PowerPoint presentations are saved in the .pptx file type. However, there may be times
when you need to use another file type, such as a PDF or PowerPoint 97-2003 presentation. It's easy
to export your presentation from PowerPoint in a variety of file types:

 PDF: Saves the presentation as a PDF document instead of a PowerPoint file


 Video: Saves the presentation as a video
 Package for CD: Saves the presentation in a folder along with the Microsoft PowerPoint
Viewer, a special slide show player anyone can download
 Handouts: Prints a handout version of your slides
 Other file type: Saves in other file types, including PNG and PowerPoint 97-2003

To export a presentation:

In our example, we'll save the presentation as a PowerPoint 97-2003 file.

1. Click the File tab to access Backstage view.


2. Click Export, then choose the desired option. In our example, we'll select Change File Type.

3. Select a file type, then click Save As.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 153

Sharing presentations

PowerPoint 2013 makes it easy to share and collaborate on presentations using OneDrive. In the past,
if you wanted to share a file with someone, you could send it as an email attachment. While convenient,
this system also creates multiple versions of the same file, which can be difficult to organize.

When you share a presentation from PowerPoint 2013, you're actually giving others access to the exact
same file. This lets you and the people you share with edit the same presentation without having to
keep track of multiple versions.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 156


MS.OFFICE B.Com

In order to share a presentation, it must first be saved to your OneDrive.

To share a presentation:

1. Click the File tab to access Backstage view, then click Share.

2. The Share pane will appear.

Understanding slides and slide layouts

When you insert a new slide, it will usually have placeholders. Placeholders can contain different types
of content, including text and images. Some placeholders have placeholder text, which you can replace
with your own text. Others have thumbnail icons that allow you to insert pictures, charts, and videos.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 158


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Slides have different layouts for placeholders, depending on the type of information you want to
include. Whenever you create a new slide, you'll need to choose a slide layout that fits your content.

To insert a new slide:

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 159


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Whenever you start a new presentation, it will contain one slide with the Title Slide layout. You can
insert as many slides as you need from a variety of layouts.

1. From the Home tab, click the bottom half of the New Slide command.

2. Choose the desired slide layout from the menu that appears.

3. The new slide will appear. Click any placeholder and begin typing to add text. You can also
click an icon to add other types of content, such as a picture or a chart.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 160


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To change the layout of an existing slide, click the Layout command, then choose the desired layout.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 161


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To quickly add a slide that uses the same layout as the selected slide, click the top half of the New
Slidecommand.

Organizing slides

PowerPoint presentations can contain as many slides as you need. The Slide Navigation pane makes it
easy to organize your slides. From there, you can duplicate, rearrange, and delete slides in your
presentation.

Working with slides

 Duplicate slides: If you want to copy and paste a slide quickly, you can duplicate it. To
duplicate slides, select the slide you want to duplicate, right-click the mouse, and
choose Duplicate Slide from the menu that appears. You can also duplicate multiple slides at
once by selecting them first.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 162


MS.OFFICE B.Com

 Move slides: It's easy to change the order of your slides. Just click, hold, and drag the desired
slide in the Slide Navigation pane to the desired position.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 163


MS.OFFICE B.Com

 Delete slides: If you want to remove a slide from your presentation, you can delete it. Simply
select the slide you want to delete, then press the Delete or Backspace key on your keyboard.

To copy and paste slides:

If you want to create several slides with the same layout, you may find it easier to copy and paste a
slide you've already created instead of starting with an empty slide.

1. Select the slide you want to copy in the Slide Navigation pane, then click the Copy command
on the Hometab.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 164


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. In the Slide Navigation pane, click just below a slide (or between two slides) to choose a paste
location. A horizontal insertion point will appear.

3. Click the Paste command on the Home tab.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 165


MS.OFFICE B.Com

4. The slide will appear in the selected location.

Customizing slides

To change the slide size:

By default, all slides in PowerPoint 2013 use a 16 by 9—or widescreen—aspect ratio. You might know
that widescreen TVs also use the 16-by-9 aspect ratio. Widescreen slides will work best with widescreen
monitors and projectors. However, if you need your presentation to fit a standard 4-by-3 screen, it's
easy to change the slide size to fit.

 To change the slide size, select the Design tab, then click the Slide Size command. Choose the
desired slide size from the menu that appears, or click Custom Slide Size... for more options.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 166


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To format the slide background:

By default, all slides in your presentation use a white background. It's easy to change the background
style for some or all of your slides. Backgrounds can have a solid, gradient, pattern, or picture fill.

1. Select the Design tab, then click the Format Background command.

2. The Format Background pane will appear on the right. Select the desired fill options. In our
example, we'll use a Solid fill with a light gold color.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 167


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The background style of the selected slide will update.


4. If you want, you can click Apply to All to apply the same background style to all slides in your
presentation.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 168


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To apply a theme:

A theme is a predefined combination of colors, fonts, and effects that can quickly change the look and
feel of your entire slide show. Different themes also use different slide layouts, which can change the
arrangement of your existing placeholders. We'll talk more about themes later in our Applying
Themes lesson.
1. Select the Design tab on the Ribbon, then click the More drop-down arrow to see all of the
available themes.

2. Select the desired theme.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 169


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The theme will be applied to your entire presentation.

Try applying a few different themes to your presentation. Some themes will work better than others,
depending on your content.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 170


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Customizing slide layouts

Sometimes you may find that a slide layout doesn't exactly fit your needs. For example, a layout might
have too many—or too few—placeholders. You might also want to change how the placeholders are
arranged on the slide. Fortunately, PowerPoint makes it easy to adjust slide layouts as needed.

Adjusting placeholders

 To select a placeholder: Hover the mouse over the edge of the placeholder and click (you may
need to click on the text in the placeholder first to see the border). A selected placeholder will
have a solid line instead of a dotted line.

 To move a placeholder: Select the placeholder, then click and drag it to the desired location.

 To resize a placeholder: Select the placeholder you want to resize. Sizing handles will
appear. Click and drag the sizing handles until the placeholder is the desired size. You can use
the corner sizing handles to change the placeholder's height and width at the same time.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 171


MS.OFFICE B.Com

 To delete a placeholder: Select the placeholder you want to delete, then press
the Delete or Backspace key on your keyboard.

To add a text box:

Text can be inserted into both placeholders and text boxes. Inserting text boxes allows you to add to
the slide layout. Unlike placeholders, text boxes always stay in the same place, even if you change the
theme.

1. From the Insert tab, select the Text Box command.

2. Click, hold, and drag to draw the text box on the slide.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 172


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The text box will appear. To add text, simply click the text box and begin typing.

Using blank slides

If you want even more control over your content, you may prefer to use a blank slide, which contains
no placeholders. Blank slides can be customized by adding your own text boxes, pictures, charts, and
more.

 To insert a blank slide, click the bottom half of the New Slide command, then
choose Blank from the menu that appears.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 173


MS.OFFICE B.Com

While blank slides offer more flexibility, keep in mind that you won't be able to take advantage of the
predesigned layouts included in each theme.

To play the presentation:

Once you've arranged your slides, you may want to play your presentation. This is how you will present
your slide show to an audience.

1. Click the Start From Beginning command on the Quick Access toolbar to see your
presentation.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 174


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. The presentation will appear in full-screen mode.


3. You can advance to the next slide by clicking your mouse or pressing the spacebar on your
keyboard. Alternatively, you can use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move forward or
backward through the presentation.
4. Press the Esc key to exit presentation mode.

You can also press the F5 key at the top of your keyboard to start a presentation.

To select text:

Before you can move or arrange text, you'll need to select it.

 Click next to the text you want to select, drag the mouse over the text, then release your mouse.
The text will be selected.

Copying and moving text

PowerPoint allows you to copy text that is already on a slide and paste it elsewhere, which can save you
time. If you want to move text, you can cut and paste or drag and drop the text.

To copy and paste text:

1. Select the text you want to copy, then click the Copy command on the Home tab.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 175


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. Place the insertion point where you want the text to appear.
3. Click the Paste command on the Home tab.

4. The copied text will appear.

To cut and paste text:

1. Select the text you want to move, then click the Cut command.

2. Place the insertion point where you want the text to appear, then click the Paste command.

3. The text will appear in the new location.

You can access the cut, copy, and paste commands by using keyboard shortcuts. Press Ctrl+X to
cut, Ctrl+C to copy, and Ctrl+V to paste.

To drag and drop text:

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 176


MS.OFFICE B.Com

1. Select the text you want to move, then click and drag the text to the desired location.

2. The text will appear in the new location.

Formatting and aligning text

Formatted text can draw your audience's attention to specific parts of a presentation and emphasize
important information. In PowerPoint, you have several options for adjusting your text,
including size and color. You can also adjust the alignment of the text to change how it is displayed on
the slide.

Click the buttons in the interactive below to learn about the different commands in
the Font andParagraph groups.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 177


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Using Find and Replace

When you're working with longer presentations, it can be difficult and time consuming to locate a
specific word or phrase. PowerPoint can automatically search your presentation using the Find feature,
and it allows you to quickly change words or phrases using the Replace feature.

To find text:

In our example, we'll use the Find feature to look for specific dog breeds in our presentation.

1. From the Home tab, click the Find command.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 178


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. A dialog box will appear. Enter the text you want to find in the Find what: field, then click Find
Next.

3. If the text is found, it will be selected.

4. Click Find Next to find further instances. If none are found, a dialog box will appear. Click OK.

5. When you are finished, click Close to exit the dialog box.

You can also access the Find command by pressing Ctrl+F on your keyboard.

To replace text:

At times, you may discover that you've repeatedly made a mistake throughout your presentation—such
as misspelling someone's name—or that you need to exchange a particular word or phrase for another.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 179


MS.OFFICE B.Com

You can use the Replace feature to make quick revisions. In our example, we'll replace with
word pounds with the abbreviationlbs.

1. From the Home tab, click the Replace command.

2. A dialog box will appear. Type the text you want to find in the Find what: field.
3. Type the text you want to replace it with in the Replace with: field, then click Find Next.

4. If the text is found, it will be selected. Review the text to make sure you want to replace it.
5. If you want to replace it, select one of the replace options. Replace will replace individual
instances, and Replace All will replace every instance. In our example, we'll use
the Replace option.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 180


MS.OFFICE B.Com

6. The selected text will be replaced.

7. PowerPoint will move to the next instance of the text in the presentation. When you are
finished replacing text, click Close to exit the dialog box.

You'll need to be careful when using the Replace All option. In the example below, changing the
word Pounds to lbs. would have been incorrect in this context. You can click Find Next to skip to
the next instance without replacing the text.

Theme elements

Every PowerPoint theme—including the default Office theme—has its own theme elements. Those
elements are:

 Theme Colors: There are 10 theme colors, along with darker and lighter variations, available
from every Color menu.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 181


MS.OFFICE B.Com

 Theme Fonts: There are two theme fonts available at the top of the Font menu under Theme
Fonts.

 Theme Effects: These affect the preset shape styles. You can find shape styles on
the Format tab whenever you select a shape or SmartArt graphic.

Why use themes?

If you're using a theme, you'll probably find that your presentation looks pretty good. All of the colors
will work well together, which means you won't have to spend as much time formatting your
presentation. But there's another great reason to use theme elements: When you switch to a different
theme, all of these elements will update to reflect the new theme. You can drastically change the look
of your presentation in a few clicks.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 182


MS.OFFICE B.Com

In our examples above, you can see the effect of applying different themes to the same slide—each
theme uses its own fonts and colors. But you may have also noticed that the font and colors of the logo
in the bottom-right remained unchanged: This is because they're Standard Colors and Fonts rather
than theme elements. Colors and fonts will only update if you're using Theme Fonts or Theme Colors.

Themes and slide layouts

As you can see from the two different Title Slides above, themes can also change various slide layouts.
Some themes, like the Wisp theme in the example below, even include additional layouts.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 183


MS.OFFICE B.Com

If you use a unique slide layout—such as Quote with Caption or Name Card—and then switch to a
theme that does not include that layout, it may give unexpected results.

Applying themes

All themes included in PowerPoint are located in the Themes group on the Design tab. Themes can be
applied or changed at any time.

To apply a theme:

1. Select the Design tab on the Ribbon, then locate the Themes group. Each image represents a
theme.
2. Click the More drop-down arrow to see all available themes.

3. Select the desired theme.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 184


MS.OFFICE B.Com

4. The theme will be applied to the entire presentation. To apply a different theme, simply select
it from the Design tab.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 185


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Once you've applied a theme, you can also select a variant for that theme from the Variants group.
Variants use different theme colors while preserving a theme's overall look. Some variants also
use different textures, as in the example below.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 186


MS.OFFICE B.Com

About transitions

There are three categories of unique transitions to choose from, all of which can be found on
the Transitions tab:

 Subtle: These are the most basic types of transitions. They use simple animations to move
between slides.

 Exciting: These use more complex animations to transition between slides. While they're
more visually interesting than Subtle transitions, adding too many can make your presentation

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 187


MS.OFFICE B.Com

look less professional. However, when used in moderation they can add an nice touch between
important slides.

 Dynamic Content: If you're transitioning between two slides that use similar slide layouts,
dynamic transitions will move only the placeholders, not the slides themselves. When used
correctly, dynamic transitions can help unify your slides and add a further level of polish to your
presentation.

To apply a transition:

1. Select the desired slide from the Slide Navigation pane. This is the slide that will
appear after the transition.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 188


MS.OFFICE B.Com

2. Click the Transitions tab, then locate the Transition to This Slide group. By default, None is
applied to each slide.
3. Click the More drop-down arrow to display all transitions.

4. Click a transition to apply it to the selected slide. This will automatically preview the
transition.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 189


MS.OFFICE B.Com

You can use the Apply To All command in the Timing group to apply the same transition to all
slides in your presentation. Keep in mind that this will modify any other transitions you've applied.

Try applying a few different types of transitions to various slides in your presentation. You may find that
some transitions work better than others, depending on the content of your slides.

To preview a transition:

You can preview the transition for a selected slide at any time using either of these two methods:

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 190


MS.OFFICE B.Com

 Click the Preview command on the Transitions tab.

 Click the Play Animations command in the Slide Navigation pane.

Modifying transitions

To modify the transition effect:

You can quickly customize the look of a transition by changing its direction.

1. Select the slide with the transition you want to modify.


2. Click the Effect Options command, and choose the desired option. These options will vary
depending on the selected transition.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 191


MS.OFFICE B.Com

3. The transition will be modified, and a preview of the transition will appear.

Some transitions do not allow you to modify the direction.

To modify the transition duration:

1. Select the slide with the transition you want to modify.


2. In the Duration field in the Timing group, enter the desired time for the transition. In this
example, we'll increase the time to two seconds—or 02.00—to make the transition slower.

To add sound:

1. Select the slide with the transition you want to modify.


2. Click the Sound drop-down menu in the Timing group.
3. Click a sound to apply it to the selected slide, then preview the transition to hear the sound.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 192


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Sounds are best used in moderation. Applying a sound between every slide could become
overwhelming or even annoying to an audience when presenting your slide show.

To remove a transition:

1. Select the slide with the transition you want to remove.


2. Choose None from the Transition to This Slide group. The transition will be removed.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 193


MS.OFFICE B.Com

To remove transitions from all slides, apply the None transition to a slide, then click the Apply to
Allcommand.

Advancing slides

Normally, in Slide Show view you would advance to the next slide by clicking your mouse or by pressing
the spacebar or arrow keys on your keyboard. The Advance Slides settings in the Timing group allows
the presentation to advance on its own and display each slide for a specific amount of time. This feature
is especially useful for unattended presentations, such as those at a trade show booth.

To advance slides automatically:

1. Select the slide you want to modify.


2. Locate the Timing group on the Transitions tab. Under Advance Slide, uncheck the box next
to On Mouse Click.
3. In the After field, enter the amount of time you want to display the slide. In this example, we
will advance the slide automatically after 1 minute and 15 seconds, or 01:15:00.

4. Select another slide and repeat the process until all the slides have the desired timing. You can
also click the Apply to All command to apply the same timing to all slides.

If you need to advance to the next slide before an automatic transition, you can always click the
mouse or press the spacebar to advance the slides as normal.

About slide views

PowerPoint includes several different slide views, which are all useful for various tasks. The slide view
commandsare located in the bottom-right of the PowerPoint window. There are four main slide views:

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 194


MS.OFFICE B.Com

 Normal view: This is the default view, where you create and edit slides. You can also move
slides in the slide navigation pane on the left.

 Slide sorter: In this view, you'll see a thumbnail version of each slide. You can drag and drop
slides to reorder them quickly.

Accounts with inventory. .If you want to do
accounts only then select accounts only and if you
want to maintain stock, raising the bills, then
select option “Accounts with Inventory” and if you
want to maintain inventory only then select
Inventory only. In this example we are selecting
“Accounts Only”.

FINANCIAL YEAR FROM Suppose, we want to maintain the accounts for the
financial year 2011-12 then we shall write
“01.04.2011”

BOOKS BEGINNING FROM Here also, we will mention “01.04.2011”. In case,


you are starting your accounts from 01.10.2011
then you can write as 01.10.2011. But, in this case
you can not make any entry before 01.10.2011 for
financial year 2011-12.

DISALLOWING OPENING IN EDUCATIONAL MODE You should write “Yes” because you want to
maintain the accounts not for study purpose. But,

tally vault, you can not see your company in list of
companies whenever you open the tally. It is
advisable not to give any password under this

some password for your company so that the
person who knows the password, he only can open

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 220

the company.

NAME OF ADMINISTRATOR Write any thing but remember, if you have written
any thing in capital letters, then at the time of

in capital letters.

administrator’s name. Here also, we are
writing XYZ as password in capital letters.

REPEAT PASSWORD You should again write your password as written


in Password Column. So write – XYZ in capital

CREATION OF ACCOUNTS HEADS IN TALLY
Posted By G.S. Bansal, On September 26, 2012

Illustration:- Create the following account heads under tally.erp9 in the books of M/s XYZ Limited:-

Account Heads Groups

MORNING PLACE SUNDRY CREDITORS

GIFT HOUSE SUNDRY CREDITORS

PURCHASE ACCOUNT PURCHASE

SALES ACCOUNT SALES

SALARIES EXPENSES ACCOUNT INDIRECT EXPENSES

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 226


MS.OFFICE B.Com

INTEREST ON FIX DEPOSITS INDIRECT INCOME

TELEPHONE EXPENSES ACCOUNT INDIRECT EXPENSES

FREIGHT INWARDS EXPENSES DIRECT EXPENSES

STATE BANK OF INDIA (CURRENT ACCOUNT BANK ACCOUNTS


Solution:

To create the account heads in tally, you have to follow the following procedure:-

First of all, open tally.erp9 program.

Now, select the company in which you want to work. We shall select M/s XYZ Limited.

Type the password if any.

Now, you are on ‘gateway of tally’

Select – Accounts Info under Master.

The screen will be seen as under:-

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 227


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Select ledger. Now screen shall appear as under:-

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 228


MS.OFFICE B.Com

After you select the ledgers, there are two options for creating the ledgers as shown in following image:-

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 229


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Now, have the screen before giving to options (1) Single Ledger (2) Multiple Ledgers. You can create accounts
heads as you wish. Both methods are simple. But it depends how many account heads you have to create. If the
number of account heads is very small then Single Ledger can be selected and if there are so many ledger
accounts heads then you can select ‘Multiple Ledgers’. For me it does not make any difference. I would
definitely suggest creating account heads under select ‘Single Ledger’ because it is very easy and data are saved
very quickly.

Single Ledger option

Suppose, you want to create account heads by using single ledger option then select single ledger. Again it has
three options:-

 Create
 Display
 Alter
Under Create option, you can create new account heads.

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 230


MS.OFFICE B.Com

Under Display option you can see the account heads which are created by you or already exist.

Under Alter option, you can make any alteration in the account heads.

Here, we shall select create option. When we select the create then a screen appear. We have to fill up the
information according to the format available for creation of account heads.

Now, we take the above example. We have to create the account head “Morning Place” under “Sundry Creditor
Group”.

Name: Write Morning Place.

Note: While giving the name, you must avoid Mr./Mrs./Miss/Ms./M/s etc. because at the time of entries, the
account heads will appear with first alphabet ‘M’. So, it shall be very difficult to trace out the account head very
easily.

Alias: means any other name of same account head. For example, you are creating the account head of State
Bank of India. Under ‘Name’ you can write State Bank of India and under ‘Alias’ you can write ‘SBI’. You can see
any detail relating to State Bank of India by using SBI also.

Note: Alias should be avoided as far as possible.

Under: You have to give the name of group. here we shall write ‘Sundry Creditors’. When you select under, the
list of groups appears on the screen and you have to select the required group by using arrow keys or you just
write first alphabet of group, all the groups relating to that alphabet shall appear on the screen. You can select
the required group easily.

Fill up all other details that is self explanatory. Even if you do not fill the remaining details just press ‘Enter’
key. After you fill up all the details, it will look like as under:

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 231


MS.OFFICE B.Com

After you fill up complete details, tally asks you ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. If you find that all information is correct then
select ‘Yes’ or Press ‘Enter’ and if you find any mistake in details given in the form then select ‘No’ or type “N”. If
you type ‘N’, you will reach in starting of form and again you can fill up the correct information.

Note: The data will be saved only after you select ‘Y’.

Same way other account heads can be created using single ledger option.

Multiple Ledgers Option

When you want to create so many account heads under one group or different groups altogether then you can
use this option. According to above example, you can create the account heads as under:-

Select ‘Create’ under multiple ledger. Following screen will appear:-

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 232


MS.OFFICE B.Com

How to Fill up the details under “Multiple Ledger”:-

Under Group: Select any group under whose the account heads are to be created. For example you want to
create so many account heads under ‘Sundry Creditor’ Group then select ‘Sundry Creditor’. Remember that if
you select a particular group then the ledger accounts shall be created under that particular group only. If you
select “All Items: then you can create account heads under any group in single form.

According to above example, we shall select “All Items” and fill up the details that is self explanatory. You just
write the name of account and select the required group. After you fill up the details given in above example,
you will find your screen as under:-

S.SUBA ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VIJAY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT Page 233


MS.OFFICE B.Com

After all the information is filled up, tally will ask you ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. If all information is correct then type ‘Y’ or
press “Enter” otherwise type ‘N’. If type “N” then correct the information given by you then at last type ‘Y’
other wise your data will not be saved.

Creation of Groups in TALLY.ERP9:- Basically, the group is the alternative name of schedules. Schedules are
the support details of final accounts. For example there are 100 customers in an organization. If you prepare
the balance sheet of that business firm then the individual balances of all 100 customers will be shown in
balance sheet. Now, imagine how it will look. It will very lengthy and will be very difficult to understand.

To solve this problem, tally has given you a group namely ‘Sundry Debtors’. It means, whenever, you shall
create new account of any customer, it will ask the name of group and you will put that account under ‘Sundry
Debtors’. Now, when you look your balance sheet, you will find a heading of ‘Sundry Debtors’ which will give
the net balance of all the customers under single figure. We can easily understand with that heading the
company has to receive this much amount from the customers.

Suppose, you want to know the detail of every individual customer then press ‘Enter’ on ‘Sundry Debtors’, the
list will appear. Similarly, tally has created so many groups keeping in view the requirement of business
organizations. Mostly, groups are self explanatory.

It is advisable to study the groups available in tally program thoroughly. Then you can understand very easily
the importance of groups.

Now, question arises, suppose, you want to create some more group which are not available with tally
program, that can be created very easily. But remember, any new group can be created only under the group
given by tally.

Illustration:

Create the following groups in the books of M/s XYZ Limited:-

Groups to be created Under Group

Sundry Debtors – East Sundry Debtors

Sundry Debtors – West Sundry Debtors

Sundry Debtors – North Sundry Debtors

Sundry Debtors – South Sundry Debtors

Solution:

In above illustration it is felt that the business firm wants to keep the track on customers according to area or
region wise. The above groups can be created as follows:-

 At last, Tally will ask ‘Yes’ or ‘No’, then you check all the details filled up by you. If every thing is in
order then press ‘Y” or ‘Enter’ key and if you find any mistake, you write ‘N’ then you will reach at beginning of
the group creation form and correct the mistakes. To save the group under tally, finally, you have to write ‘Y’ or
