Restructuring a Microsoft Word Document

If you need to structure a document that has become a pile of paper with sticky notes to denote sections, then you might be interested in one of my articles on how to structure Microsoft Word Documents.

I regularly receive assignments from students (yes that’s right I’m a lecturer with the Open University too) and I always find some students don’t know how to structure a document in a word processor – so, I wrote an article about structuring using headers, footers, headings and sections.

It’s the combination of sections, headings and the outline view that allow documents to be restructured easily and using them right from the start really does make all the difference.

Using these features of any Word Processing package also helps documents look professional – it really doesn’t give the right impression when someone makes a small change and all the page footers are no longer shown at the foot of the page.

As always, feel free to ask me questions…
