Microsoft Office Professional 2010 Tip of the Week

Have you ever wanted to make some text in your document look like other text in your document? Or maybe you made a picture look just right in last week's status report and really don't want to start from scratch on the picture in this week's status report. Either way, this week's tip will save you some time. How to Make "That" Look Like "This" Option 1: Select "this" Click Format Painter on the Clipboard group on the far left of the Home tab Select "that" They will look the same Option 2: Select "this" Hold down CTRL+SHIFT while you press "C" Select "that" Hold down CTRL+SHIFT while you press "V" They will look the same For an example of option 2,Windows 7 64 Bit, let's say you have a document: …and you want to make that: …look like this: So you… Select "Monday" Hold down CTRL+SHIFT while you press "C" Select Tuesday Hold down CTRL+SHIFT while you press "V" …and now "Tuesday" looks like "Monday" and you proceed to… Select the list under "Monday" Hold down CTRL+SHIFT while you press "C" Select the list under "Tuesday" Hold down CTRL+SHIFT while you press "V" …and now Tuesday's list looks like Monday's list and finally you… Select the picture under "Monday" Hold down CTRL+SHIFT while you press "C" Select the picture under "Tuesday" Hold down CTRL+SHIFT while you press "V" …and now Tuesday's picture looks like Monday's picture and you are left with… Once you get the hang of either option,Microsoft Office 2007 Professional, you will make that look like this all over your document and between documents in a matter of seconds. I prefer option 2 and remember it by reminding myself that I can copy and paste the look of something by shifting how I would copy and paste the thing itself. -Jonathan PS If you want to make multiple things look like "this,Microsoft Office Professional 2010," Option 2 just works and Option 1 works if you double click Format Painter. PSS If you like the way a picture is styled,Office 2010 Activation, but want to change the picture itself,Microsoft Office 2007, you don't need to create anything from scratch. Just right click on the picture and select Change Picture. [Update: "this" and "that" were backwards in the steps under the options and have been corrected] <div
