Getting Started Guide
After successful installation and entitlement activation, users can start working with Vietnam Office through three applications: Văn Bản — Vietnam Office, Bảng Tính — Vietnam Office, and Trình Chiếu — Vietnam Office. The applications follow consistent interaction principles for common tasks such as creating, opening, editing, saving, and managing documents.
- 1. Open an application — On Windows or macOS, launch Văn Bản, Bảng Tính, or Trình Chiếu from the application list, shortcut, or operating-system application location. On Android or iOS/iPadOS, select Vietnam Office or the applicable application icon on the device.
- 2. Choose the appropriate application — Use Văn Bản for document authoring, Bảng Tính for entering, calculating, and analyzing data, and Trình Chiếu for creating and presenting slide-based content.
- 3. Create a new document — Select New and choose the appropriate document type. Văn Bản creates a new text document, Bảng Tính creates a new workbook, and Trình Chiếu creates a new presentation.
- 4. Start with a blank document — Users can begin with a blank document and immediately enter content or data, or start building slides as required.
- 5. Open an existing file — Select Open, navigate to the file location, and choose the document to use. Vietnam Office opens formats supported by the applicable application and version.
- 6. Open files directly from the operating system — When a file format is associated with the applicable Vietnam Office application, users can click or tap the file directly from the operating system's file manager to automatically open it in the appropriate application.
- 7. Recent documents — The recent documents list allows users to quickly reopen files they have worked with without locating them again from the beginning in the storage system.
- 8. Edit a document — After creating or opening a file, users can select content and use the editing tools available through the Ribbon, toolbar, menus, or the applicable platform interface.
- 9. Cut, Copy, and Paste — Use Cut, Copy, and Paste to move or duplicate content within a document or between supported locations. On Desktop, these commands can be accessed through menus, context menus, or the applicable keyboard shortcuts.
- 10. Undo and Redo — Use Undo to reverse a recent action and Redo to restore an undone action within the editing history supported by the application.
- 11. Find content — Use Find to quickly locate content in a document. Văn Bản supports content search and replacement, Bảng Tính supports finding data within workbooks, and Trình Chiếu supports searching presentation content within the feature scope of the applicable version.
- 12. Save a document for the first time — Select Save. If the document does not yet have a save location, Vietnam Office prompts the user to select a folder, enter a file name, and choose a supported file format before saving.
- 13. Save changes — When working with a file that already has a name and save location, select Save to write changes to the file. Users should save regularly when making important changes.
