Word 2000 in a Nutshell

Chapter 7. Insert

As word processing software evolves, documents consisting only of text are becoming rare. Word’s Insert menu contains commands for adding the extra elements that make up many contemporary documents. The commands are primarily used to add special Word objects, such as page breaks, fields, comments, footnotes, and drawing objects. The menu also provides commands for adding content from other Word documents or even from other types of files, such as spreadsheets or databases.
