Question

You work for Woodgrove Bank. You are preparing a brochure that explains U.S bank account options for international student. Find the word "automatic" and delete it from the document.

Explanation

Approach. The correct approach is to use the Find & Replace dialog: press Ctrl+H to open it, type 'automatic' in the 'Find what' field, leave the 'Replace with' field completely empty, then click 'Replace All' (or 'Find Next' then 'Delete' manually). Alternatively, use Ctrl+F to open the Navigation pane, search for 'automatic', click the result to highlight the word, then press the Delete or Backspace key. Both methods precisely target the word without manually scanning the document, which is the efficient and expected technique in a professional setting.

Concept tested. Using Microsoft Word's Find (Ctrl+F) or Find & Replace (Ctrl+H) functionality to locate and remove a specific word from a document - a core MOS (Microsoft Office Specialist) Word competency.
