Highlights of “Cheat Sheet: 10 Tips and Tricks for Microsoft Word”

After read of “Cheat Sheet: 10 Tips and Tricks for Microsoft Word” from Lifehacker.com, these content I found are pretty useful!

1. Be Selective with How You Select

(1) To select a single sentence, hold down Ctrl and click on any word.

(2) To select an entire table, hold down Alt and double-click.

2. Use the Built-In Thesaurus
To use it, highlight an entry and press Shift+F7.

3. Extend Word's Trial Period
Microsoft allows you to test drive Office 2010 free for 30 days; after that, you have to pony up for a license and activate. Or you can ‘rearm' Office for another 30-day trial, up to 5 times for a total of 180 days. To rearm, open an elevated command prompt and go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform and run OSPPREARM.exe. If you installed the 32-bit edition of Office on a 64-bit OS, replace Program Files with Program Files (x86).

4. Select Text Vertically
To use it,
holding down the Alt key and using your mouse cursor.
