Using This Learning
Guide
Introduction
Windows 98 has become the a widely accepted operating
system for PCs. With an improved graphical user inter-
face (GUI) and support from all major software develop-
ment companies, Windows 98 is destined for great
success.
Rather than requiring the computer user to memorize
arcane commands, Windows 98 allows everyone, novices
and experts, alike, to get to quickly get to work.
And that's the name of the game with computers, get to
work, be productive. And in the business arena, the faster
one becomes productive, the greater the value of the
software and computing environment.
Windows' interface is often referred to as WYSIWYG,
What You See Is What You Get. This means that if a
character appears on the screen in a small type size, it will
print in a small size. If the type size is large, the printed
size will be large. Also, line drawings, colors, and
shadings appear on the screen as they will on paper.
In this learning guide, you will practice the major features
of Windows 98. This guide was written by a team of
professional computer instructors who have many years
of experience teaching and explaining technical subjects,
such as the previous versions of Windows.
Each chapter presents a new facet of the software
program and builds on the previous lessons. You may
start at the beginning and work progressively through
each chapter or you may jump to a specific topic and
focus on exactly what you need right now.
The Training Express team is very proud to present this
guide to you, and we want you to succeed at learning
Windows 98. Good luck, and have fun!

Finding Files
Introduction
Once documents have been saved to your hard drive, they
have a nasty habit of getting lost. Especially, if you don't
have a folder set aside for each type of document (word
processor, spreadsheet, database, etc.), it's easy to forget
into which folder the document was originally saved.
Luckily, Windows 98 includes a powerful search program
that can ferret out even the most well hidden files.
1. Click Start
2. Click Find
In this example, you will search for all files that have the
word "write" in their name.
