ABSTRACT
Microsoft Office is an office suite of desktop applications, servers and
services for Microsoft Windows and OS X operating systems. It was first
announced by Bill Gates of Microsoft on 1 August 1988 at COMDEX in
Las Vegas. Initially a marketing term for a bundled set of applications,
the first version of Office contained Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel
and Microsoft PowerPoint. Over the years, Office applications have
grown substantially closer with shared features such as a common spell
checker, OLE data integration and Visual Basic for Applications scripting
language. Microsoft also positions Office as a development platform for
line-of-business software under the Office Business Applications brand.
On 10 July 2012, Softpedia reported that Office is used by over a billion
people worldwide. The current versions are Office 2013 for Windows,
released on 11 October 2012; and Office 2011 for OS X, released 26
October 2010.On 24 October 2012, the RTM final code of Office 2013
Professional Plus was released to TechNet and MSDN subscribers for
download. On 15 November 2012, the 60-day trial version of Office
2013 Professional Plus was released for download.

A touch optimised version of Microsoft Office is available pre-installed

on Windows RT tablets. A mobile version of Office, Office Mobile, is
available for free on Windows Phone, iOS (with separate versions for
both iPhones and iPads), and Android. A web-based version of Office
called Office Online, (formerly Office Web Apps) is also available.[8]
Microsoft has stated that it plans to create a version of Office for
Android tablets ("and other popular platforms") as well.

Main Applications of MS Office

MS Word (Word Processing)

MS Word is what you use to compose letters, reports, essays, etc. It

also contains many
templates for creating documents from CVs to
envelope labels. It allows you to change the font size, font type, font
color, etc. of text and alter the formatting of the paragraph you are
working on - all with an inbuilt and automatic spell checker. There are
many more advanced features, but these are the most common uses.

MS Excel (Spreadsheets)

You can use MS Excel to create spreadsheets which are used

primarily for storing and manipulating numerical data - for example
you could create the company balance sheet on a spreadsheet and set
the totals to automatically add up.

MS Access (Databases)

A database is used to store records - kind of like an electronic filing

cabinet. With MS Access you can create your own database and
perform tasks such as editing fields (eg name, address, phone, etc.) to
outputting reports (e.g. a list of all names).So you could use this to

create a client database of all your companies clients and store all their
details, then create lists (printouts) of the information in any format
you like (eg one client per sheet or paper, or one per line).

MS PowerPoint (Presentations)
Microsoft PowerPoint is a popular presentation program for Windows
and Mac. It is used to create slideshows, composed of text, graphics,
movies and other objects, which can be displayed on-screen and
navigated through by the presenter or printed out on transparencies or
slides.

MS Outlook (Email)

MS Outlook is an email programmer. You use it to compose, send

and receive emails. Its pretty simple.
