If you've got a legitimate copy of WordPerfect, try running the Tutorial that
came with it.  Not only will it get you more than started, it will answer a
number of your questions.  It's self paced, and well presented.  You can
do amazing things with just this little bit of info, before doing cosmic
things (and using many of the additional features) you'll find in your 
manuals.
