How do I delete documents in Word2013 Windows 8.1?

I just got a new computer and have Word 2013 and I am simply lost.  I am used to XP and Word 2003.  How do I get a list of my documents and how do I delete ones I no longer need.  This cloud thing has me totally confused and nothing works the way I am used to.  Please help.

Hello Rita,

Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for posting your query.

Let me assist you with Word issue.

Are you referring to the recent list in Word 2013?

If you are trying to access the files that are saved on the computer, then you may click on File/Open, click on Computer and browse to the location the files are saved to open them.

To delete the documents you may look for the document in the saved location once found, you may highlight the document and press the delete button on the key board.

If that is not the case, please provide us more information to help you better.

Thank you.
