E. Using the Thesaurus Microsoft Word offers a fairly complete thesaurus that assists you in finding similar words so that you do not keep repeating the same one in your document. If you have already named the document it will instantly save the document under that name and to the location you originally selected. The top box is the location to which the document will be saved. Click on your disk to select it. This is particularly important if you wish to use the document on your own IBM-compatible or if you are using a computer with a version of Word different from the ones in the Science computer lab.
Word can open documents made on versions below the one being used.
It cannot open documents made on versions higher than the one being used. While you should not permanently save anything on the computer's hard drive, unless it is your computer, it is a good idea to create your own temporary folder for each session and immediately save a copy to that folder. Then, ever thirty minutes or so, save a copy to that folder. This will allow you to select a new location, your own folder on the hard drive, and then save the file under the same name. At the end of your session on the computer, after you have quit Microsoft Word, eject your original disk and put in your backup disk.
