I'm new user of ArchiCAD who's no experience, but i eagerly want to explore it. Please give me some help how to use it.
Question is: From what i have to do first to start a project. Design or document which is given in Toolbox?
Thanks

Design, it is normal practice for most to draw out the walls first, then doors, windows, roof, floor etc.
But to be honest you should really get some help or just go to You Tube, subscribe to Eric Bobrows course or even Lynda.com have a beginners course for Archicad.
That would give you a real leg up.

Go through the free Training Series:

http://www.graphisoft.com/learning/training-materials/

Start with Volume 1, then Volumn 2, 3 and 4 should also be useful.
You might not need Volume 5, which is about Teamwork, at the moment.
They will give you a good foundation.
