    Try this, highlight text in a word document, hold down the shift key and press the F3 button. buwahahaha, just kidding. I use this function all of the time.

    you know what? I have a damn piece of paper saying I am a Microsoft Certified Master in Office...meaning all I did is pass a bunch of tests in Word, Excel, and Access on a computer with a high enough score to get the certificate. ...and I didn't know that little trick. I will have to show them that at the office tomorrow....... cool

    got any more useful tricks? What do you do for a living?

    I am the webmaster for a local maritime themed science center. I actually am webmaster for three websites that my company has, the science center, a cruise website, and a cruise terminal website.

    Another useful trick, hmmm, how about making a table in word using just the keyboard:

    open a new word document

    type a sequence of + signs and minus signs, then hit enter to create a one row table. It should begin and end with a plus sign, like this:

    +----------+----------+----------+----------+

    The above sequence creates a one row, 4 column table. Add rows by tabbing over to the last column and hit the tab key. You can hold down the tab key to keep adding rows and use ctrl-z to undo.

    This is usually turned on by default but if it doesn't work, go to tools, AutoCorrect options, Autoformat as you type tab and check the tables box.

    Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week.
