7 Microsoft Word Shortcuts You Probably Don’t Know

Microsoft Word : Love it or hate it, practically everyone uses it. I stumbled across some super helpful shortcuts hidden tricks and timesavers that make Microsoft Word easier and faster.Different versions of Word may have different commands, so some of these may not work in your version.

1. Double Click And Drag
If you're like most people, when you want to move a section of text from one place to another, you use Control-C to cut and Control-V to paste. That's fine. It works. But there's a faster way: Double click or highlight what you want to move, then simply drag what you've highlighted to where you want it to land.

2. Double Underline
You know you can affect text by hitting Control-B to make it bold or Control-U to underline. But if one line of underlining just isn't emphatic enough, Control-Shift-D will double underline. (On a Mac, use Command-Shift-D.) If that doesn't make your point, you may have to go to ALL CAPS, and I've got a shortcut for that too…

3. Change Case
Instead of retyping everything to change from lower case to Title Case or to UPPERCASE, just highlight the text you want to change, click the case button, and then choose which case you want.



4. Add the Date
How many times a day do you type the date? If you do it even once, that's too much. Next time, just hit Alt-Shift-D (or Control-Shift -D on a Mac) to add the date automatically.

5. Quick Parts
This next tip builds on what the Autotext function did in older versions of Word: If you have a certain paragraph of text you regularly need to add to a document like a boilerplate disclaimer, or maybe directions to your office turn it into a Quick Part. Here's how:

1. Highlight the text you regularly use
2. Click the insert tab
3. Hit Quick Parts, and choose "Save Selection To The Quick Part Gallery"

Now any time you want to insert that chunk of text into a document, either a new one or and old one you're editing, just hit that Quick Parts button. Just one more click will select which saved Quick Part to insert. This trick will even work as a shortcut for adding a logo or letterhead.

6. Conform Fonts
This one used to drive me crazy: I'd copy and paste some bit of text from another document or from the Web, and then I'd have to click all over the place to get the font size and style to match the surrounding text of my existing document. No longer. Here's all you need to do: Highlight the non-conforming text, then hit Control-Spacebar. Done.

7. Customize Quick Access Toolbar
There is one way to get your most commonly used commands in the same place- that's to customize the Quick Access Toolbar.  It's like the center drawer in your desk that has all the stuff you use most in one easy-to-access place. No organization, just (as the name implies) quick access. So take the things you like most and add them to the Quick Access toolbar. Click the little down arrow tab to get to the Customize Quick Access Toolbar drop down menu:
Hit "more commands" and add whatever you use most. You can also position this toolbar below the ribbon if you prefer it to be closer to your document text.

Outlook 2007 RPC over HTTP Exchange Access

This document details how to set up your Outlook 2007 account to access the Exchange Server from off-campus using RPC/HTTP. Using this method will allow you to access Exchange without using the VPN.

Once the "Microsoft Exchange" window appears, go to the Connection tab and check the box that says Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP.  Next, click Exchange Proxy Settings...

After the "Microsoft Exchange Proxy Settings" window appears, enter exweb.domain.com, (Ask from your system administrator) into the first field.  You then want to make sure that Connect using SSL only is CHECKED, and that Only connect to proxy servers that have this principal name in their certificate is UNCHECKED.  Lastly, CHECK both the On fast networks and On slow networks checkboxes and then his OK.  Hit Apply and OK on the "Microsoft Exchange" window, then click Next when you get to the "Add New E-mail Account" window.

Once you hit Next, an box will appear saying "Connecting to exmail.domain.com " Type in domain\username into the username field, then enter your password where requested.  Hit OK when you're done.







Open up Outlook, and you should be prompted for your username and password again.  Enter the same information as before, and check the box that says Remember my password if you don't want this to pop up every time you open Outlook.  Once your information is entered, click OK.  The login box should disappear, and you will see an indicator in your system tray similar to the one below.  Your e-mails should then start appearing.  It may take several minutes before all your mail shows up, depending on how many e-mails you have.

Manually Check for Windows 7 Updates

This article illustrates how to manually check for system updates in Windows 7.

Open Windows Update from the Control Panel
Click on the start button in the lower-left corner of the screen, then click on Control Panel.
Next, click on System and Security, then Windows Update and Check for Updates.

Check For Updates
Windows will check for updates, then display its findings.

Select Updates
If there are updates pending for the system, Windows will show a prompt to install all available high-priority updates. The prompt will look something like this:

   

Install Updates

Save any open documents, and close all other applications.  Click on Install Updates to install any pendingWindows updates. This can take some time depending on the capabilities of the system, and the speed of the Internet connection.

Restart Computer

When prompted to restart the machine, click Restart Now. 

Check If Someone Is Using Your Wi-Fi

It may be that you're experiencing a slower than normal Internet connection or you simply don't want anyone getting a free ride while you pay the bill. Of course, there are also security implications if this person can somehow access files on your network, and even legal implications if he uses your connection for piracy or other illicit activities. Whatever the case it's better

to stay on the safe side. Many of you may have already taken some basic precautions when setting up your wireless network and know your way around troubleshooting these issues. This brief guide is aimed mostly at novice users in need a hand to find out if, indeed, their Wi-Fi is being stolen.

Check the devices associated with your router

The first thing you need to do is login to your router's administrative console by typing its IP address directly into the browser address bar -- typically 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 or simply go to the command prompt (Start > Run/Search for cmd) and enter "ipconfig". The address you need should be next to Default Gateway under your Local Area Connection.

Next, point your browser to that IP address and enter your login details. Once inside your router's administrative console look for a section related to connected devices or wireless status.

This should provide a table with the IP, MAC address and other details of every device currently
connected to the router. Check that list against your gear to find any intruders. You can find out
MAC/IP address of your computers by going to the Command Prompt again and entering 'ipconfig /all'.
The MAC address will be shown as the physical address. I'll let you figure it out for mobile devices
like smartphones and media players since I can't possibly list all options.

Taking action

The best and simplest solution is to set up a strong password using WPA2 or WPA -- WEP is very easy to crack so avoid that if possible. There are some other methods you can use to beef up security, like switching off the SSID broadcast (which prevents it from advertising the name of your network to nearby Wi-Fi devices) or setup a filter for allowed or blocked devices by MAC address. It won't stop the most determined intruder but it will slow him down.

Needless to say, we're not suggesting you take matters into your own hands, but it might come in handy if someone is getting you in trouble with authorities using your network for illegal purposes -- or simply to have a cool story to tell.

Add RSS Feeds to the Windows 7 Sidebar

What is RSS?

RSS (Rich Site Summary) is a format for delivering regularly changing web content. Many news-related sites, weblogs and other online publishers syndicate their content as an RSS Feed to whoever wants it.

Why RSS?  Benefits and Reasons for using RSS....

RSS solves a problem for people who regularly use the web. It allows you to easily stay informed by retrieving the latest content from the sites you are interested in. You save time by not needing to visit each site individually. You ensure your privacy, by not needing to join each site's email newsletter. The number of sites offering RSS feeds is growing rapidly and includes big names like Yahoo News.

If you subscribe to a lot of RSS feeds and want quick access to them on your Windows 7 desktop, you can add a Feed Reader gadget to the desktop to do this.

First let’s bring the gadget to the visible desktop.  To do this Right-Click any open space on the Desktop.  Then Click Gadgets.

The Gadgets window will appear, Right-Click Feed Headlines and then Click Add.

Subscribe to an RSS Feed

The first step is to subscribe to an RSS feed in Internet Explorer. The RSS button in Internet Explorer is grey unless you are on a site for which an RSS feed is available. Then, the button turns orange.
Open Internet Explorer and go to the site to which you want to subscribe. Click the orange RSS button on the toolbar.

The RSS feed displays in the browser window. Click the Subscribe to this feed link in the yellow box.

The Subscribe to this Feed dialog box. You can change the name of the feed and also specify which folder in which to save the feed. This allows you to organize your feeds, if you have a lot of them. Click the Subscribe button.

A message displays saying you have been successfully subscribed to the feed. A link is provided allowing you access to your list of feeds. Click the View my feeds link.

A sidebar displays with the Feeds tab active, displaying a list of the feeds to which you are subscribed.

 Done....

 There are many major weblog software packages contain RSS generators which are fairly easy to use, too.

Blocking Windows 7 Account Automatically

There are many ways for a crackers to break your account, such as a brute force method. In this method , a cracker tries to combine characters, letter and numbers to break your user account, or guessing various words in dictionary, or breaking your account directly through the weakness of system.

In Windows 7, There is a way to reduce an account breaking by locking the account. A locking is done automatically after user gives incorrect password for several times.

These are the steps to activate this feature:

1. Start_then type "secpol.msc" in Searching box

2. Local Security Policy Editor will be opened, go to Account Policies and choose Account Lockout Policy

3. Right click Account lockout thereshold and choose properties

4. Add amount of "invalid logon" from default 0 to higher number. If you enter "3" then the user account will be blocked after the user give a wrong password 3 times

5. OK to save change

32-Bit and 64-Bit Versions of Windows 7

Windows 7 Home Premium is available in both a 32-bit model and a 64-bit model. Although both types of Windows 7 look and act the same on the surface, the way they work is quite different. How do you choose between the 32-bit and 64-bit versions? It really boils down to your needs and capabilities.
The 32-bit flavor of Windows has a limit on the amount of memory that Windows can use. It really can only see 3.4 or 3.5 gigabytes (GB) of memory. Even if you put 8GB of memory into your computer, the 32-bit version of Windows can only use about 3.5GB. The rest just sits there, wasted.
On the other hand, the 64-bit flavor of Windows 7 can use much more than 8GB of RAM. Whether you need that much additional memory is debatable, but some power users will definitely want the extra memory.

If you're thinking about going the 64-bit route, you first need to find out whether your computer can even handle it. On a Vista computer, you can find that information by following these steps.

1. Click Start→Control Panel→System and Maintenance→Performance Information and Tools.
2. Click View.
3. Under System type, see what version of Windows you're currently running.
4. Under 64-bit capable, see whether you can run a 64-bit version of Windows.

The 64-bit capable listing won’t appear if you’re already running a 64-bit version of Windows.
If you’re starting out with completely new hardware and you plan to run your PC for a long, long time, 64-bit Windows 7 makes a lot of sense. In the long run, you’ll be better prepared for the future.

 

How to Use Flip 3D in Windows 7

To use the Flip 3D feature, hold down the Windows logo key on the keyboard and then press the Tab key. All the open windows will cascade across your desktop in 3-D. Flip through the cascading thumbnails by continuing to the press the Tab key. When the thumbnail of the window you want appears at the front of the stack, release the Windows logo key. Your windows will all lay back down with the window you want on top. If your mouse has a center wheel, you can then flip through the 3-D stack by turning the wheel. (Turn the wheel forward to flip backward through the stack and backward to flip forward.)

Create PST On Outlook 2003 or 2007

1:   From Outlook, Click File, New, Outlook Data File…

 2:   Keep Default Setting – Office Outlook Personal Folders File (.pst) and Click OK

 Note: In Step 3, you need to decide where to SAVE the new .PST file.  By default, new PST files are saved:
Windows Vista & Windows Server 2008 : C:\Users\MrGroove\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\MrGroove\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\

 3:  Verify location to save PST file, Type File Name for PST file (I organize by Mailbox Name and Year), Click OK


4:   In the Name Field, Type Display Name.  This is the name which will be displayed in Outlook.  Click OK

Note: Optionally, you can also enter a Password here to improve Security.  Prior to Outlook 2007, adding a Password to a .PST file was worthless due to a flaw which allowed the Security to be defeated instantly using a number of Security Password Cracking Products no matter how long or complex the password was.  I’ve not tested to see if Microsoft fixed this Issue in Outlook 2007 but once I do, I’ll update the article.







 5:   Once Step 4 is completed, new .PST or Local Personal Data Folder will display in your Navigation Pane as shown in the Screen Snip Below.  Expand the Personal Data File you created and Right Click on Personal Data File (MrGroove – 2008 in my example) to begin Creating additional folders, Calendars etc…  Drag and Drop also works OR, you can Cut and Paste Emails or Folders of Emails from your Server Mailbox to your new .PST Personal Data Folder.  It’s pretty simple.

How to archive your email on Outlook 2007





Use Auto Archive to automatically move important but infrequently used items to an archive file. This is to manage .PST file size or to prevent “mailbox full” message disturb you every day. The following is the default location and name for the archive file:

C:\Documents and Settings\[your user name]\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Archive.pst

You may want to backup the archive file the same way as you backup the PST file. Recovering a PST file alone won't recover your archived file. Consider backing up both files at the same time.

You can turn off Auto Archive to prevent it from running on all folders. Return to Auto Archives options and uncheck the box next to "Run AutoArchive every n days."

Speed Up Computer

Speed Up Computer
The following tasks are going to be the highest impact tasks that you can try to speed up a computer. Hopefully your PC will be brought back up to a normal speed after finishing these steps. Also, there are many more computer tips in our guides and tips section that can help to further speed up your PC.

 1) Clean Your Registry (Recommended - CCleaner)
Cleaning Your Registry is a top way to speed up your computer. You've probably noticed that your computer gets slower and slower as time passes. More often than not, this is caused by Registry problems, accumulated as a result of installing and uninstalling programs. This ultimately has a negative effect on the operation of Windows.

2) Defragment To Boost Hard Drive Speed
This will help your hard drive run much more efficiently. If you haven't defragmented in awhile, we would recommend running the windows defrag multiple times. To Defragment your hard drive, open up "My Computer", Right Click on C:, Click properties, Click the "Tools" Tab, Click "Defragment Now", Click Defragment, click OK.

 3) Scan For and Remove Viruses
One of the most common reasons for a slow computer is a virus. You will want to scan for and remove any viruses that may be infecting your computer. This may be a difficult task if you already have a virus. However, many virus's can be removed by your virus protection software.

 4) Remove Spyware
Another common reason for a slow computer is spyware or malware. You will want to run a spyware check and remove any spyware that the spyware program finds.

5) Free Up Disk Space
If your computer is low on disk space, freeing up disk space can help speed up a PC. Freeing up disk space will also help out with step 3.

 6) Update PC Drivers
Old or ancient drivers may cause a range of problems, from diminished hardware functionality to conflicts and system crashes. As Windows requires specialized drivers to run practically every piece of hardware on your PC, keeping track of what needs to be updated, downloading and then installing the right drivers can be tricky and technically troublesome.

7) Disable Windows Indexing Service
The Windows Indexing Service is always running in the backround on your PC and can slow your PC down a bit. Disabling this can give a small speed boost. To do disable windows indexing, open up "My Computer", Right Click on C:, Click properties, Uncheck "Allow Indexing Service to index this disk for fast file searching", click ok.

8) Optimizing Windows Startup Programs
When Windows starts up it automatically loads a number of programs, many of which you may not need all the time and can be started when needed. One thing that will help computer speed will be cutting down on the number of programs that startup automatically.

Here are simple steps to Disable Programs at Startup in XP.
1. Click on Start->Run
2. Type "msconfig" and click OK. (This will bring up System Configuration Utility.)
3. In the System Configuration Utility, Click the tab called Startup.
4. Now you can uncheck any programs that you do not want running at Windows XP startup.
5. Once you are done unchecking programs, Click Okay. You will be prompted to restart your computer at this point.

Here are simple steps to Disable Programs at Startup in Windows Vista and 7 with the System Configuration Utility.
1. Open up msconfig (use the Start Menu's Instant Search feature: just press the Windows key and type 'System' and the hit return).
2. Click the Startup tab.
3. Now you can uncheck any programs that you do not want running at Windows 7 or Vista startup and hit OK.

9) Disable Unnecessary Services
Services are programs that are continuously running in the background of Windows and are doing different tasks that Windows needs done. There are a lot of these services and they can use a lot of resources. The good news is that a lot of these services are expendable and can be turned off without any problems. This is an ADVANCED TASK. Managing Services with Services.msc
1. Go to Start -> Programs -> Administrative Tools -> Services. You can also go to START -> Run -> and type services.msc.
2. Left-click on a service.
3. Read the description of the service just to make sure you don't think you will need the service.
4. If you decide you want to disable the service, Right-click -> Properties -> Change the "Startup Type" to "Manual" and then stop the service. The next time you reboot Windows the service will not start.

 10) Clean your Computer
The inside of a computer tower can get dusty over time. This dust will cause the fans will cause the cooling equipment to not work as well as when you first bought the computer. This excess heat can slow a computer. By cleaning out the inside of your computer case, you may be able to regain some speed.

 11) Upgrade Your Memory
If the computer is still slow, then you may have to upgrade or buy a new computer. A memory upgrade is the only upgrade we recommend for the novice to intermediate computer user. It is inexpensive and can make a HUGE difference if your computer is low on memory. The reason we put this at #11 is because it requires you to buy and install hardware.

Hopefully, your computer is running much faster at this point. The guide above contains only a few of the tips on this site. For more FREE Antivirus and Diagnose tools please click IT UPDATE link above or visit :

What Is Cache Memory?

The cache memory is built into the central processing unit, commonly known in short as the CPU, or it can be located on a separate chip next to the CPU.

The purpose of the cache memory is much like that of the human beings brain. As you walk down the street, your brain has to tell your body exactly how to move each leg, this is a repeated task that it does each day. Like this, as programs are running on your computer, the software will often have repeated tasks throughout it. These tasks are then stored on your cache memory in an effort to quickly and easily use them.

As you will have noticed on most computers, a lot of software will take some time to open. However, once it is open, it takes very few resources to actually work in it. It is due to the fact that the resources being used are located in the cache memory, rather than elsewhere in the computer hardware. The cache memory can be so effective, that it is very often seen that system performance benchmarks can vary dependent on how much cache memory you have. For example, a computer with a really fast CPU and very little cache could have a lower score than a computer that has a slower CPU and more cache memory.

Another factor in this is that there are three different levels of cache. These levels are dependent on where the cache is located. Some computers will have the cache memory directly built into the CPU. This is considered to be Level 1 (L1) cache. Level 2 (L2) cache memory is cache that will be placed onto a separate chip next to the CPU. There can be some CPU's that have both L1 and L2 cache memory. When a CPU does this and there is still a separate chip away from the CPU, the separate chip would be considered Level 3 cache memory.

You have to keep in mind that L1 cache is faster than L2 cache in the case where there is a separate chip. As mentioned above, when the L1 cache is directly built into the CPU, the cache will run at the speed of the CPU itself. Otherwise, L2 in this case would default to the capability of the motherboard which is almost always slower than that of the CPU.

In the case that you want to build the fastest computer possible and you are wondering how the cache is going to affect your system, you still need to keep in mind that both L1 and L2 cache memory is faster than that of standard RAM. Therefore, when searching for a CPU or motherboard for your new super computer, you are better served by finding both that have built-in cache keeping mind that the more the better.

Recovering documents after a system crash

Recovering documents after a system crash

When you open Excel 2007 after a system crash, the Document Recovery task pane shows the available versions of the workbook files that were open at the time of the crash. It identifies the original version of the workbook file and when it was saved along with the recovered version of the file and when it was saved.

Excel 2007 asks you to choose which version of the workbook to open.

To open the recovered version of a workbook (to see how much of the work it contains that was unsaved at the time of the crash), follow these steps:

1. Position the mouse pointer over the workbook listed in the Document Recovery task pane.
2. Click the drop-down menu beside the document name and click Open on the pop-up menu.
3. (Optional) After you open the recovered version, you can save the workbook.

To save the recovered version of a workbook without bothering to first open it up, follow these steps:

1. Position the mouse pointer over the workbook listed in the Document Recovery task pane.
2. Click the drop-down menu beside the document name and click Save As on the pop-up menu.
3. Save the workbook.

If you want to permanently abandon the recovered version (leaving you with only the data in the original version), click the Close button at the bottom of the Document Recovery task pane. To retain the files for later viewing, select the Yes button before clicking OK. To retain only the original versions of the files shown in the task pane, click the No button instead.

AutoRecover Excel & Word 2007 Document

MS Office 2007 offers a document recovery feature that can help you if a computer crashes due to a power failure or some sort of operating system freeze or shutdown.

mapping. Example : nslookup example.com

What is CPU & GPU in computers?

GPU (graphics processing unit) CPU, is core of the computer which processes the data as per the instructions given by the user. But when it comes to the heavy graphics processing, it tend to slow down. To combat this situation GPU was designed, whose sole purpose was to process graphics and in return lessen the burden on the CPU making it more faster and deliver better performance.
From the user’s perspective, the application just runs faster because it is using the high-performance of the GPU to boost performance.

Schedule Reboot Windows Server

You can simply put something like this into batch file:
shutdown -r -t 60

-r is for reboot
-t is in how many seconds (60 seconds)

Name the batch file something like "reboot.bat" on notepad. Now set up schedule just
like you would for any other task and call that batch file at convenient
time.Test this command to see if it works on your system.
You can cancel reboot if you enter command shutdown -a.

What is svchost.exe

"Svchost.exe" (Generic Host Process for Win32 Services) is an integral part of Windows OS. It cannot be stopped or restarted manually. This process manages system services that run from dynamic link libraries (files with extension .dll). Examples for such system services are: "Automatic Updates", "Windows Firewall", "Plug and Play", "Fax Service", "Windows Themes" and many more.
At startup, Svchost.exe checks the services portion of the registry and constructs a list of services that it needs to load. Under normal conditions, multiple instances of Svchost.exe will be running simultaneously. Each Svchost.exe session can contain a grouping of services, so that many services can be run depending on how and where Svchost.exe is started. This allows for better control and debugging.
If the process svchost.exe uses high cpu resources, it is mostly due because the service "Automatic Updates" is downloading some new Windows update. But having a 99% or 100% cpu usage could be caused by downloads due of some hidden malware on your computer. Some malware like the Conficker worm changes the Windows Registry so that svchost loads the malware .dll file. In this case you only see the authentic svchost.exe process in the task manager! Use our free Svchost Analyzer to find such malware.

Dual Monitors in Windows 7

Windows 7 has some neat little enhancements, one of them being how it lets you handle dual monitors. If you’re adding a second monitor to your Windows 7 home or office PC, which is a very good idea, it’s a breeze to configure.
There are actually two ways you can currently setup multiple monitors in Windows 7, either by using a keyboard shortcut or via the traditional system properties.
I really like the first method since it’s new and is way easier than having to go into the Control Panel or anything else.
Simply press the Windows key and P (Windows + P) to bring up a quick menu of options.

Pretty neat! You can pick to show only the computer, make the second monitor a duplicate of the first, extend the desktop to the second monitor or turn off the first monitor and activate the second.
The second way is to right-click on the desktop and choose Screen resolution.

Now you’ll see the familiar 1 and 2 to distinguish which monitor is which. There are several options and under Multiple Displays, you can choose from the same options as when you pressed Win + P.

That’s it! You can also change the orientation of the displays and change the resolution of each display. It’s pretty straight-forward in Windows 7 and a lot easier! Enjoy!
