Final answer:
To accept or reject changes in a Word document, open the Review tab and use the accept or ignore options. When multiple occurrences of a flagged word exist, only the first flagged word should be accepted, while subsequent occurrences should be ignored.
Step-by-step explanation:
To accept or reject changes in a Word document, open the document and click the Review tab above the tools ribbon. This will open the Review tab toolbar, where you can find options to accept or reject changes.
When performing a grammar and spelling check, if the word is flagged for spelling or grammar errors, you should accept the suggested change for the first flagged word. If there are multiple occurrences of the word, you need to ignore all subsequent occurrences of the same flagged word.
For example, if the word 'accept' is flagged and there are multiple instances of it in the document, you should accept the suggested change for the first instance and ignore all other instances of 'accept' that are flagged.
