Really enjoyed the course and had time to ask specifics that will help with the tasks we need to undertake. Great course very useful, excellent day and well delivered.
Fantastic course very knowledgeable trainer, very well presented and tailored to our specific requirements and working environment – thanks!
I have been on many courses and I have to say I have never been on a course like the one today. It was informative and hands on and I learnt a great deal. Your offices are in a perfect location, well kept and the course content far exceeded my expectations.
The training was very well received yesterday and Daniel did a great job. The participants are going to use what they have learnt over the next month and then we hope to go on to Intermediate level. Would we be able to request that its Daniel that returns as everyone felt he was very easy to understand and taught it well?
The course was great. Could you please pass on our thanks to Stuart who is a brilliant trainer and very entertaining! We are all hoping to attend the next level, thanks again.
For myself I found it really good. The course was taken at a reasonable pace but each module was thoroughly explained with an exercise at the end to put the learning into context. As a basic user of excel I gained a lot of valuable knowledge and would recommend it.
Course was very useful. The general content was very useful and there was time left to address specific applications for our needs as a group and individuals.
I just wanted to thank you for yesterday, the course was excellent and really helped me. It covered everything I wanted to know and I've been singing your praises all morning! Once again thanks
Thank you so much for the training – it was excellent - you put the information over very well, and just at the correct pace. I’m laughing at the poor state of the docs I did, but they’ll be very useful reminders of everything. The handout on Shortcut Keys is what I’ve been waiting years for and the course notes will be a great help.
I enjoyed meeting yourself and Alison and found the course really interesting, I also enjoyed your training style which suited me down the ground. If I get stuck I’ll send out a ‘help mail’.
Please could you pass on my compliments to Terry, who delivered the course today, as he did so with confidence and humour! He was very helpful and seems like a great personality to have on your team! I very much look forward to attending the other courses that have been booked via yourselves.
A hidden feature of word is the ability to simply remove a word at a time rather than a letter every backspace. You can highlight the word you want to delete and remove it from the document, but this is the commonly known method. If you press and hold Ctrl while using backspace, you will notice that words disappear instead of just letters.
When you have word open, go to File > Options > Quick Access Toolbar, switch to All Commands and click on the Calculate Command to add to the Quick Access Toolbar (You can quickly find the calculate tool by pressing on the list of commands followed by pressing the letter C). After you save, you will see a grey circle at the top of your Word window where Save, Undo & Redo are located.
To use this calculator, highlight an equation in your document and press on that circle, you will notice that an answer to your calculation will appear at the bottom of your window.
If you want to change specific text to bold, you simply select the text you wish to change and either press the B button as shown in the picture or use the shortcut Ctrl + B.
Within word, you can set your page in landscape or portrait orientation. However, it is not known that if you combine two features that word offers, you can have multiple orientations for your document.
Using a section break, you detach the pages from each other so they aren’t following formatting properties. After using a specified section break, press on the page you want to change and simply navigate to Layout and change the page options to suit your preference.
If you wish to highlight text, press the arrow to start the drop-down menu.
Once the colour is selected, press abc and then select your text. To end the highlighting press abc again.
Firstly, strikethrough is commonly used to remove data that you want to be seen. If you wish to perform this task, press the abc icon with a line directly through the middle of the 3 letters. For example, Game of Thrones is the best show on tv a great show.
Subscript will slightly lower the text from the standard line and commonly used in formulas and mathematical expressions. To add a subscript to your work, press the icon with an x2 this will make all the new text in subscript form and will not change the existing text. For example, Water is H2O, with a subscript H2O.
Superscript works in the opposite way to subscript and the text will be slightly above the standard line, this is also commonly used in mathematical expressions and specifications of chemical compounds. Look for the icon that appears as x2, pressing on this icon will raise all new text to the superscript line. The existing text will remain the same. For example, 1st 2nd 3rd.
If you want to increase the indent of your paragraph to move closer to the margin, you will select the left icon which clearly shows that you are indenting the paragraph to the left by showing a small arrow within the icon.
Alternatively, if you want to decrease the indent of your paragraph to be as far away from the margin as possible, you will click on the icon to the right which is represented with an arrow to the right.
Quick parts are a way of storing content that you want to reuse, such as images or lines of text. It may also include document properties such as the author of the document and title for example and AutoText. Primarily these are called building blocks.
To create a new Quick Part, you select the information you wish to keep and navigate to the Insert tab. Open Quick Parts and save the selection to the quick part gallery. Your selection is then stored in the gallery.
Auto-correct is a simple process that looks at what you type and corrects the word to what the computer thought you was trying to spell. You can delete the rules, edit the rules and create new rules that the auto-correct will look at while you are typing away.
1. Go to File and Options
2. Click onto the proofing section
3. Now press on AutoCorrect Options.
4. On the left side, type the letters/words that you want to be replaced with whatever you wish by typing the correction in the right-hand side.
When you are wanting to change fonts in Word, you can type in the font you want to use or select from a drop-down menu.
If you want to change the specific text that you have already written, select the text and type/use the drop-down menu for the desired font. Alternatively, if you start a new line/paragraph and change the font before you start typing, the text will be using the new font until you repeat the process of starting a new line and changing the text.
If you want to create a border around your text, you have a decision to make. Do you want a border that will go all the way around your text or a border that will cover one specific area of your text? For example, bottom border. You add a border to your text under the paragraph section on the home tab, pressing on the drop-down menu will give you the options you can select from.
