Hello everyone. Wow, it seems like we have gone straight from winter to summer where I live. The temps have been close to ninety for the last several days. I like summer as much as the next person but this is too soon! The temps should be a bit more seasonal starting tomorrow but it will also be rainy - I guess that's the tradeoff - April showers bring May flowers right?
I have been busier than a one-armed paper hanger with the itch lately! What with newsletters, articles and technology expos, I barely have time to breathe! Luckily I like to be busy and really enjoy what I do. It's always crunch time when I am preparing our newsletter but once it's finished I can always sit back and relax and feel good about helping someone resolve a problem or two.
Wherever you are I hope that you are enjoying the nice weather and that you are staying healthy! Don't forget to give back and help your neighbor too.
Let's get to the tips now!

Jump to Previous Work in MS Word
When you reopen an MS Word document, very often you just want to start working where you left off, but it can be tedius and time consuming to scroll through a large document finding exactly where your work left off. I have heard it said that you cannot go back, but guess what - you can! And quickly too!
Follow this quick step to learn how:
- Click Shift + F5.
That's it! You're finished.
You will immediately be taken back to the last spot you were working on!
Change the Default Font in MS Word 2007
The default font in Word 2007, Calibri, is great but if you do not care for it you can change it permanently.
Follow the steps below to learn how:
- Click CTRL + D.
- Select the font you would like to use.
- Click the Default button.
This will change the default font in the template called Normal, which will be applied to all documents that use the Normal style.
Show the Ruler in MS PowerPoint 2007
To adjust indents for individual paragraphs on a PowerPoint slide, first make the rulers visible. Follow the steps below to learn how:
