Quite often, I receive e-mails requesting complete lists for keyboard shortcuts.

Unfortunately, I never really have one. Most of the lists I put in the newsletter are ones I compile from a variety of references.

And, to be quite honest, I wasn't too worried about a "whole" list, because most people I've worked with have difficulty learning that much material all at one time.

But, I've stumbled upon a way to get MS Word to make a full list, so for those of you who really want the "complete" list of keyboard shortcuts, this one is for you!

In all versions of Word, you'll need to begin with an open blank document.

For those of you with older versions of Word, you need to go to the Tools menu, Macro submenu, Macro choice (or Alt + F8).

If you're running Word 2007, you need to click the Macro button on the Developer ribbon. (If you don't see the Developer ribbon, go to the Office button, Word Options button and in the Popular section, check the "Show Developer tab in the Ribbon" and click OK).

No matter which version you're running, we're all looking to choose Word commands under the "Macros in:" field in the Macros dialogue box.

From the list that appears in the Macro name: field, you need to select ListCommands.

Next, cialis sale click Run.

When the List Commands window opens, choose either "Current menu or keyboard settings" or "All Word commands." (I've made both of these lists. The "All Word commands" choice produced a much longer list that contained all the commands, even if there wasn't a keyboard shortcut to list. A good portion of the 42 pages had no shortcuts for me to use. As a result, I whole heartedly recommend you choose the first option).

When you've made your choice, click OK.

You will be returned to your document and Word will create a table of your shortcuts.

The first column is the command name.

The second column (titled "Modifiers") is the combination of Alt, Ctrl and Shift that you will need to use with the key listed in the third column.

The last column is the menu where the command can be located in Word.

That's it!

You can save and/or print the document as a reference tool.

One last thought: for those of you who may be overwhelmed by such a long list, never fear. I'm positive you'll still find smaller, more manageable lists included in this newsletter from time to time!

Letter Case Mania

Ever find that you're constantly trying to change the capitalization of words or sentences? What do you do?

Maybe you highlight the word or phrase and retype it.

Maybe you're the type who only replaces the individual letters that need to be changed. What a headache!

Are you the person who found the Change Case feature on the Format menu? You know, where you get the choices of sentence case, all lowercase letters, all uppercase letters, all title case letters or to toggle all letters between upper and lowercase.

What I have for you today are a few shortcuts for all of this change case stuff. It's something even faster than the Change Case choice on the Format menu.

Let's start with the most versatile choice.

Once you highlight the text to change, use Shift + F3. You'll scroll between sentence case letters, all lowercase letters and all uppercase letters.

That's good! Looks great, but what if you know you want all caps and don't cialis review feel like toggling through your choices?

Is there a quicker way?

Yep, you bet. (Isn't that why I brought it up in the first place)?

If you know you want your text all caps, simply try Ctrl + Shift + A.

And… if that weren't enough, there's another option altogether. You can use small caps. That is all the letters in capital letter formation, but slightly smaller than the usual capital letter.

Ctrl + Shift + K will put you straight to small caps, which is a good "attention getter" without completely shouting at the reader.

That's it! Three keys and you're on your way to the formatting you need.

MS Excel Text Into Columns

Have you ever found yourself wondering what in the world possessed the person who created your MS Excel file to put both first and last name in the same cell?

Now how are you supposed to sort that list alphabetically by last name when first name is listed first?

The answer is that you can't—you have to separate the first and last names—somehow…

But how?

You could spend your time retyping the last name into the next column. It works but it's not a great plan since it could take "forever" if your list is really long.

Or… maybe you have other text / data that really should be separated into different cells for easy sorting and editing.

Would you like a fast way to separate the data? (This works best with data that's pretty consistent and not too complicated.)

Most of us would say "yes". (Even if you don't have an immediate use for this one, it's one of those handy little pieces of information that may just get you out of a jam one day. 🙂

So let's get to that faster way…

The first thing you'll need to do is to highlight the data that needs to be separated.

Now go to the Data menu, Text into Columns choice.

A 3-step wizard will start to guide you through the process.

On step 1 check at the top that the data will be delimited.

Then click Next.

In step 2 you need to check the Space option in the Delimiters section. (Make sure all other choices are unchecked.) Basically what you're doing here is telling Excel what character separates your pieces of data—so that when it find a space it knows to stick the next piece of text in a new column.

Did you notice the preview of your data in the bottom window? See how the names are now divided into different columns?

Click Next.

Step 3 will allow you to do some formatting and placement of your data—but for now, as beginners, just click the Finish button.

Poof!

Just like magic your first and last names are in two separate columns, ready to sort – no retyping necessary.

(Ok—maybe not magic but, if your list was long, you'll feel like it was when you realize how much time you just saved.)
