You first highlight the entire paragraph, then you use the mouse to grab and hold the paragraph and while still using the mouse, you run the pointer up and down the document to find the &quot;right place&quot; to drop the paragraph.<\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><font>Then when you need to move something else, you start the process all over again.

Don&#39;t blink or you&#39;ll miss it!) <\/font><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<div align=\"left\"><font><strong>Press the up or down arrow<\/strong> in whichever direction you need to move your paragraph. That&#39;s it!<\/font><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<p><font>Each time you press an arrow key (while still holding <strong>Alt + Shift<\/strong>), your text is moved one paragraph up or down. <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>To move something a long way, simply hold down the arrow key and let it go! <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>For those of you who are already asking what makes this so different from the recent F2 trick I showed you, the answer lies within the highlighting and in the amount of text it moves. First, the F2 trick only moved the highlighted text. That tip never even instructed you to highlight! Word automatically grabs the whole paragraph and takes it along for the ride. On the other hand, if you have a couple of consecutive paragraphs to move together, you can highlight part of each one and use this trick, which will move both of them at the same time. <\/font><\/p>\n<p><font>It&#39;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.neighborhoodrealtyonline.com\/\">viagra online<\/a>  way easier than any other paragraph moving trick I&#39;ve ever used! <\/font><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<!-- Social Bookmarks BEGIN -->\n<div class=\"social_bookmark\">\n<a title=\"Click me to see the sites.\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"$$('div.d375').each( function(e) { e.visualEffect('slide_down',{duration:2.5}) }); return false;\"><strong><em>Bookmark to:<\/em><\/strong><\/a>\n<br \/>\n<div class=\"d375\" style=\"overflow:hidden\">\n<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a style=\"font-size:90%;text-align: right; \" title=\"Click me to hide the sites.\" href=\"#\" onclick=\"$$('div.d375').each( function(e) { e.visualEffect('slide_up',{duration:0.5}) }); return false;\">Hide Sites<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- Social Bookmarks END -->\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">$$('div.d375').each( function(e) { e.visualEffect('slide_up',{duration:0.5}) }); <\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you sometimes find yourself highlighting entire paragraphs in an MS Word document for relocation?
