Using the Task Pane


The task pane appears automatically on the right side of the Word screen to help you perform common tasks, such as opening new or recently used documents, searching for clip art, or applying styles to text.

Word contains several different task panes. The Getting Started task pane appears each time you start Word. You can switch to different task panes or let Word display them automatically when appropriate.
