I am not a "MS Word" user. I have heard about using Word features like 'freezing a row' (header/label row) so that we can scroll data rows (under the header row) and not get lost.
I've also heard about 'autosave' to cloud (ONEDRIVE) feature. If we are not careful and consider the 'settings' carefully, our Word documents can be available to MS (to do what -- we don't know) for generations to come. Government and/or classified documents may be compromised by using Word inexpertly.
