Word Wrap
You will probably use word wrap more than any other feature in Word.
Word wrap is easy. Just keep typing the text you want. Word wrap works automatically as you type. Word decides where to end one line of text and start the next.
Remember not to hit enter (hard return) at the end of a line until you are ready to start a new paragraph.
