It is absolutely beautiful outside as I write this. The temps are in the 80’s and the sun is shining. Definitely my kind of weather! There are some really good tutorials in this months’s articles. Even if you are an advanced user, I think you could still glean something useful. And if you feel I
So, if you have been reading the three previous tutorials you can see how we have been moving on to fancier and a tad bit more complicated looking tab options to use in your documents. I think once you learn to use these you will wonder what you did without them! I hate it when
Named ranges can be great when you are writing formulas. Suppose if you assign the name WidgetPrice to cell A5, you can then use the name WidgetPrice in your formulas instead of A5.

Merging cells means that the adjacent cells are thereafter treated as a single cell, even though they did not start as one. If your cells are on the same row
This is a very helpful tip to anyone in the legal field or academia. I suppose there are many other fields that this tip would also be very helpful to, but those are the only two I could come up with at the moment. A Legal Assistant/Paralegal contacted me recently with an inquiry that will
One would think that it would be pretty straightforward wouldn’t one? I mean Microsoft has already by default set the left tab indents to 0.5 inches. Seems pretty simple does it not? But, what if you sometimes require different tab spacing? Ah…there’s the rub. Heaven forbid, sometimes you may even require different tabs in different
Happy St. Patrick’s day! Well, it’s just a couple of days early. I am Irish and English and I love to celebrate this holiday. I always make the traditional meal of either corned beef or ham and cabbage and potatoes. Of course a good Irish meal is not complete without Irish Soda Bread. I usually
