    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: C. The Spacing After value in the Paragraph settings

    Spacing Before and After in the Paragraph dialog box set the space above and below each paragraph, so you don't need empty lines.

    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. Ctrl+Alt+C, then Ctrl+Alt+V

  9. Frage 9 von 16

    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. Keep Text Only

    Keep Text Only discards all formatting and non-text items such as pictures and tables. Merge Formatting still keeps some bold and italic.

  10. Frage 10 von 16

    What does the Merge Formatting paste option do?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. Drops most formatting, keeps some bold and italic, and takes on the style where you paste

    Merge Formatting discards most formatting applied directly to the text, keeps bold or italic used on some of the words, and matches the paragraph where you paste.

    Antwort: C. Find whole words only

    Find whole words only avoids partial matches, so "Lee" inside a longer word is not changed. Match case only checks capital letters.

  14. Frage 14 von 16

    A word in your letter has a red squiggly underline. What does that usually mean?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Add to Dictionary tells Word the word is correct, so it stops flagging it.

  16. Frage 16 von 16

    In the From and To lines of a memo, you want to start a new line without starting a new paragraph. Which keys do you press?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: A. Shift+Enter

Was Sie vor der Prüfung wissen sollten

  • An automatic table of contents is built from text that has heading styles. After you make changes, update it with Update Table and choose to update page numbers only or the entire table.
  • Ctrl+Shift+E turns Track Changes on or off, and Ctrl+Alt+M inserts a comment (Word for Windows).
  • Each page in a Word document starts with one-inch margins. You change them under Layout > Margins.
  • When you open a template, Word creates a copy of it, so the template itself stays unchanged.
  • AutoSave saves a file automatically every few seconds while you work when the file is stored on OneDrive or SharePoint.
  • In the Accessibility Checker, missing alternative text and a table with no header row are Errors; low colour contrast and merged table cells are Warnings.
  • A PDF keeps your formatting, but it does not stop people from editing the content, because many programs, including Word, can edit PDFs.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

What certificate do I get, and what is it not?

If you score 80% or more on the final assessment, you can download a certificate of completion for this course. It shows that you finished a general skills course. It is not an accredited qualification, an employer's assessment or a Microsoft certification such as Microsoft Office Specialist.

Which version of Word does this course use?

The lessons describe Word for Microsoft 365 on Windows. Most steps are similar in other versions, but some menus differ, Word for the web has fewer features, and Mac keyboard shortcuts are different.

Do I need Word to take the course?

No. You can read the lessons and answer the quizzes in your browser. To try the practical exercises (a memo, a report, a shift notice, a merged letter and a final review), you need Word on a computer.

How does the final assessment work?

It has 35 questions picked at random from the course question bank, and you have 35 minutes. You get a new mix of questions each time you try, and you need 80% to pass.

Can I use the exercise documents at work?

They are practice examples only. At work, use your employer's own templates and style rules, and follow its policies on privacy and on sharing files outside the organization.

Ist die Bescheinigung akkreditiert oder offiziell anerkannt?

Nein. Es ist eine private Teilnahmebescheinigung, nur für Ihr Wissen. Sie ist von keiner Behörde, Zulassungsstelle, Aufsichtsbehörde oder Bildungseinrichtung anerkannt, akkreditiert oder genehmigt und ersetzt keine gesetzlich vorgeschriebene Lizenz, Zertifizierung oder Ausbildung.
