    01. EXPLORING THE DESKTOP

    The small pictures that we see on the


    screen are called Icons.
    The screen where all the icons are
    arranged is called the Desktop.
    Icons of activities that we use often
    are kept on the desktop.
    The bar at the bottom of the desktop
    window is called 'Taskbar'.

    To start an application, double click on the
    desired application icon seen on the
    desktop.

    The application window opens on the


    desktop.
    More than one application can be started
    and worked upon at the same time.
    Whenever you click on an icon on the
    taskbar, the computer brings that
    application to the front and allows you to
    work on it.
    Taskbar
    The bar at the bottom of the desktop is
    called a Taskbar.
    When you open any application, a small
    window of that application appears on the
    taskbar, this is called a tab.
    The taskbar has one tab for each window on
    the desktop.
    All the applications that have been started,
    can be seen in the taskbar.
    Clicking an application tab on the taskbar
    will bring that window to the front.
