Change existing text's line spacing in Word 2000!
You can use the Format | Paragraph menu in Word to change the line
spacing of existing text in a Word document, but for simple
changes, using the line-spacing shortcut keys is much quicker. You
can quickly change the line spacing of existing text in a Word
document using shortcut keys.
For example, to change from single to double spacing, select the
text you wish to change and press [Ctrl]2. To revert to single
spacing, press [Ctrl]1. Pressing [Ctrl]5 changes the selected text
to 1.5 line spacing.
The Formatting toolbar in Word 2002 now has a Line Spacing button.
To double-space selected text, click the Line Spacing button's
drop-down arrow, and click 2 for double spacing.
In addition to double spacing, you can also use the Line Spacing
button for setting single (default), 1.5, 2.5, or triple spacing.
If none of these are sufficient, you can always go to the
Paragraph dialog box by selecting More. This takes you directly to
the Paragraph dialog box's Indents And Spacing tab, where you can
choose from the At Least, Exactly, or Multiple line-spacing
options.
OPENING MULTIPLE WINDOWS IN EXCEL 2000!
One of the most frustrating problems for Excel users is viewing
all the information they need, especially because it often lives
in multiple notebooks. Let your users know about this simple way
to view multiple worksheets, and they'll love you forever.
1. Click on the tab of the worksheet you want.
2. Choose New Window from the Window menu.
3. Repeat this process for each of the worksheets you want to
display. (Excel opens each sheet in a window that sits on top of
the previous one.)
4. To see them all at one time, choose Arrange from the Window
menu.
5. Select Tiled, Horizontal, or Vertical.
6. Select the Windows Of Active Workbook check box.
Click OK.
Create a new table from a query in Access 2000!
Access' Make-Table Query command lets you build a database table
from existing data. For example, suppose you want to create a
Preferred Customer table from existing data in an Orders database.
First, query the Orders database for customers that match your
"preferred" criteria. After you've previewed the records in
Datasheet view and are satisfied with the results of that query,
follow these steps to create a new table from that query:
1. Open the query in Design view, click the Query Type drop-down
arrow on the toolbar, and select Make-Table Query.
2. In the Table Name text box, enter a new name for the table,
designate a database (Current Database or Another Database), and
click OK.
3. On the Toolbar, click Run and click Yes in response to the
warning message.
The query results now exist as a new table in the specified
database. Close the Make-Table query. Click Save only if you need
to make another table from it.
