Office 2003 Basics
Creating a New File
New files
Now that you've learned to open an Office 2003 program, you need to learn about files. A file is a collection of data, or information. When you open Word, Excel, or PowerPoint 2003, you'll notice that a new, blank file conveniently appears, ready for you to begin working.
The more you work with Office 2003, the more files you will create.
Creating a new file follows a similar process in most Office 2003 programs.
