What is the function of a mail merge?
Mailmerge is one of the most useful facilities offered by a Word Processor. It is the joining together of two sources of information into a single document, usually a list of names and a standard letter to whom a personalised copy of the letter must be sent. This is most commonly done in creating address labels or creating a form letter. Only certain details on the letter change, like having the same letter addressed to a number of different people.
You would create one copy of the letter and another file with a list of the data elements that need to be inserted into the letter. This saves having to separately type out a copy of each letter for each recipient, where every letter is almost identical. Each name or piece of data on the list is taken in turn and placed in the relevant position on a different copy of the letter. So if you had a letter that was being sent out to invite people for an interview, on the name of the person and the time of their interview would be different on the letter. If you were having 20 interviews or if you were having 150 interviews, the letter would only have to be typed up once. Take the following letter as a very simplistic example, which is inviting people to do an interview for a course:
----
Dear ......,
We are writing to advise you that we would like to meet you on ...... at ..... to discuss your application for our ...... course.
Yours sincerely,

The places where the ...... are indicate the only parts of the letter that would be different. All the rest of the text would be the same for every letter. They represent the name of the person, the date of their interview, the time of their interview and the name of the course they are applying for.
A list of those details would be created. For each person in turn a letter would be printed with the text above the same and the ...... replaced by the name of the person, the date of their interview, the time of their interview and the name of the course they are applying for.
Your list of people and details could be
John August 3rd 11am Accountancy
Mary August 3rd 11:30am Marketing
Tom August 4th 10am History
The letters you would get could be like this:
----
Dear John,
We are writing to advise you that we would like to meet you on August 3rd at 11am to discuss your application for our Accountancy course.
Yours sincerely,

By keeping the list of names, they could be used again when writing to those people, maybe to tell them if they got their place on the course. This is a very simple example. There would be much more detail to add, like the person's full address for example.
Large companies and organisations that are sending out letters to thousands of customers would use this kind of facility. Even if a similar letter had to go to a thousand people, the actual letter would only need to be typed once, leaving the gaps for details to be added, which would be got from their list of customers.
What you are seeing here is the purpose of mail merging, though not the full details of how it is done. That would vary from different word processors and even different versions of the same word processor. But for all of them the principle is the same, as is the reasons for using it.

What is insertion point in Microsoft?
Generally, it refers to the blinking cursor on your screen that tells you where text will appear when you hit a key on your keyboard.
"Insertion point", and variations on that phrase, also refer to several arcane methods in the programming of computers, especially when dealing with hooking (redirecting) functions and direct kernel object manipulation.
Can long-deleted Microsoft Word files be retrieved?
The first place to look is the Recycle Bin. That's the normal place deleted files go. For the rest of this reply I'll assume you're talking about "properly" deleted files.
Generally, the answer is no. When a file is deleted the space it occupied is immediately available for new files to be saved over, and when that happens the file is forever erased (for all practical purposes). Undelete tools can sometimes recover recently deleted files, or fragments of them; because of the way space is allocated on the disk, these work better on Windows 95/98/ME machines than NT/2K/XP. But the longer a file has been deleted, the more likely it is to have been overwritten and lost for good.
Yes is also possible.
Unless you have low-level formatted the drive, there will always be a trace or image of your data.
This cannot easily be accessed, especially by home-users.
Best to go to a specialist. Companies deal in recovering data which has been deleted, corrupted or the physical disc damaged.
Mainly companies use this service for important data that they have lost.
Unfortunately, it is unlikely that your data could be found. Even if it was possible, it would cost hundreds of dollars.
_____
The above mentioned answers are true but have omitted 1 very important thing.
If you have not defragmented your drive then there should not be a problem with a qualified person to retrieve the item.
But of course if you have defraged the drive since then no the data is as good as lost.
Most PC repair companies now offer data recovery service's, but shop around for best price.
Prices vary from £50 ($80) up to £200 ($320)

Also, Microsoft Word does have a feature that saves a backup copy when you edit a file. If you have that turned on, and you haven't cleaned out your folders, then it is possible that it still exists. Of course, if you never turned the feature on, then it doesn't help at all.
How do you move within a document or workbook?
Moving within a document or workbook is called navigation. You can use the mouse, but you can navigate in many ways with the keyboard too. You can use the cursor keys, the Page Up and Page Down keys, the Home and End keys, and when you combine these with keys like Alt, Shift and Ctrl you can do lots of navigations. For example, Ctrl and Page Down will move from one sheet to the next sheet down and Ctrl and Page Up will go the other way. Shift and Page Down will move one full screen length down the sheet you are in. Lots of other combinations will do different things.
What program can you use to save a file in the rich text format file format?
Wordpad, Notepad, any equivalent text editing program.
How do you underline words on computer?

How do you get a bar graph on Office Word 2007?
You can do it in only 4 simple steps: 1. Type in all your information in Excel. 2. Highlight all the data you want to include in your bar graph. 3. Click Chart... on the Insert menu. 4. Follow the directions in the window to choose the chart type, source data, options, and location (as object or new sheet). That should do it! But I only found this out on Microsoft Excel 2003. So, try my idea to see if it works. If not, pressing F1 will get you to the help pane. Type "chart" in the text box in the help pane, then press enter. It should take you to a list of topics. Click the topic describing how to create a chart. Please consider my help.
