Microsoft word is a word-processing software that allows user to create, edit, and print documents using a computer. Of all computer applications, word processing is the  most common. To perform  word processing, you need a computer, a special program called a word processor.

A word processor enables you to create a document, store it electronically on a memory, display it on a screen, modify it by entering commands and characters from the keyboard, and print it on a printer.

There is a question :why use a Word processor? What are the advantages of using MS Word?

The great advantage of word processing over using a typewriter is that you can make changes without retyping the entire document. If you make a typing mistake, you simply back up the cursor and correct your mistake. If you want to delete a paragraph, you simply remove it, without leaving a trace. It is equally easy to insert a word, sentence, or paragraph in the middle of a document. Word processors also make it easy to move sections of text from one place to another within a document, or between documents. When you have made all the changes you want, you can send the file to a printer to get a hard copy.
