When you are working in Word, a thesaurus is at your finger tips. A thesaurus provides a list of synonyms for a selected word and it is very handy when you are writing. For example, if you want to find another word for “subsequent,” simply select it, open the thesaurus and Word will provide you with a list of alternative words to use.

To open the thesaurus in Word 2007:

• On the Review tab, click Thesaurus.
• Press ALT and click the word that you want to look up. Results appear in the Research task pane.

If the list of results contains a word that you want to use, point to it, click the down arrow and then click Insert of Copy.
