Word Processor User Group

WordPerfect 6.1 for Windows from Novell has finally arrived at our campus! In late May and early June, the Word Processor User Group held two meetings introducing this new word processing star to around 60 word processor users on campus.

During the meetings, both members and non-members of the User Group voiced their difficulties in using earlier versions of WordPerfect and Word for Windows. More experienced word processor users shared with us their similar experiences and creative solutions to these problems.

After the question and answer session, a demonstration was presented by the convener of the User Group. Many of the enhanced features and new functions found in this WordPerfect 6.1 were shown: the ability to edit up to nine documents at the same time; the improved Find & Replace function; Quick Correct feature; easy Abbreviation; Coach; Watermark; Quick Format; Make It Fit Expert and many more. Both meetings lasted for about two hours in a casual atmosphere with coffee & tea served. Towards the end of the day, more than 10 staff applied to become a member of the group which increases the group size to around 100.

More tips on WordPerfect 6.1 for Windows and Word for Windows are yet to come. Watch out for our next Word Processor User Group meeting!
