Case Problems

Errands-To-Go

Val’s daughter Nancy is impressed by Val’s use of Word to create logos and graphics. She asks for Val’s help in creating business forms for her babysitting service. Assume the role of Val as she creates a series of documents for Nancy.

Val explains to Nancy that the first step is to create a logo for her business. Val shows how this can be done in Microsoft Word. She begins by creating a new blank document. She then creates the Heart AutoShape and inserts it into the drawing canvas. She copies the heart and then pastes it back to the drawing canvas. She repositions the second heart so that it overlaps the first slightly to the right. She copies and pastes this heart again and repositions it in a similar fashion.

Val then removes the lines from all three hearts and applies shades of red and pink as shown in Figure 6.7. Finally, she adds the text "Nancy’s Babysitting Service" (in a bolded Tahoma font) to the heart in front. She saves the document as "Nancy’s Logo" and keeps it open for the next exercise.
