Under what circumstances would you want the "spiked words" REMOVED or CUT from the doc? I would want to spike a sentence or two from different areas of a doc to COPY them to another area. Is that possible instead of just "moving them? If so how? Thank you Allen.

Thanks!!

Thank you, Allen, for this quick tip. I assume, but do not know, that more than one word at a time can be added to the spike, i.e., instead of selecting “embed,” you could have selected the entire sentence in which the word was located, and add the sentence to spike for later “pasting”? Also, can you add text to spike and then “paste” the text in another document? Thanks again for this helpful, much lesser known, Word utility.😊

Thank you too! Good explanation.

Thanks!!

Thanks, Allen, for the keyboard shortcuts of CTRL E, CTRL Q, CTRL R, and CTRL L. All the years I’ve been using Word, and a I never knew about these keyboard shortcuts, which save much time, especially when working with large tables in a document!🙏🏼

Thanks!!

Thanks, Allen, for this video about Dates and the ways in which one can insert them in a Word document. Keep up the good work, sir! Jay Creighton

another day, another great tip!! really appreciate this 👍👍

A good keyboard way for selecting a row, if you are in the first cell (no matter where within), is to hold Shift and repeatedly hit End.

Thanks, Alan, for another helpful, informative video. I usually select information in a table, or a row or column, by using my mouse. I hadn’t paid attention to the Ribbon method of selecting table information, or a row or column. I appreciate knowing of this second method. Thanks, again. Jay Creighton🙏🏼

Thanks!!

Hello Allen: Thanks for another helpful video about Word, specifically, how to print multiple pages on one sheet of paper. I wonder if, when one sets the print dialogue to print 4 pages per sheet, does that particular setting become the default until you change it back? In other words, the next time I go to print a document, must I change the 4 pages per sheet back to 1 page per sheet? There are times when I’ve set the print dialogue a certain way with regard to a specific document but forgot to “set it back” to what it was before I made the change. And when I went to print another document, my prior change was applied to the next document. Would this also be the case with this setting: number of document pages per printed page? Thanks again, sir. Jay

Thanks!! 👍🏻

Why do you pronounce it aitalic? Not italic? Is Italy or aitaly?

The two paragraphs look the same - what's the difference?

When i double click on header area, header is getting blank, and unable to select any content in header

Super useful video. I was looking online for document creation software that uses building blocks. Little did I know my old and trusted Word has this function built in already! This is amazing, thank you for sharing!

Thanks again, Allen, for another very helpful “tips” video. By the way, what is the demonstration software you use to zoom into and highlight sections of the monitor’s screen you wish to focus the viewer’s attention? Snagit or Screenflow or some other screen assist utility? Thanks again.

In principle, I think that it's a better practice to create character styles for character formatting, especially when you are trying to have consistent formatting for the same type of text. For example, you want all dates to be bold. Create a "Date" character style and assign all of your dates to that character style. The reason why I do this is if I have to change all dates to bold *and* italic, all I have to do is edit the date character style. Otherwise, I have to manually update all of the dates.

very helpful thank youu

Allen: What a nifty tip to know about! Thank you, sir. Hope the weather in Montana is beautiful for you and your wife.

Lovely explanation about WordTips

Thanks for the video. How can this be done on a Mac?

Hello Allen: Thanks again for a very useful video about Building Blocks. I have a question: What is the purpose of the “Edit Properties” button within the Building Blocks Organizer dialog box? I recall you saying during the video that Word doesn’t really allow one to modify a building block; one simply needs insert the building block one wishes to edit into a document and then edit it as one wishes, then save it as a building block with the same name. But, near the end of the video, you opened the building block organizer a final time and that’s when I noticed the “edit properties” button. What is the purpose of that button? Thanks again.

What a useful tip, Allen. Thank you for this interesting video.🙏🏼

I'm definitely going to use this. Thank you.

Thank you, sir, for this very helpful nugget of knowledge. I appreciate it!🙏🏼

didn't know there is such a feature in Word 👍 thanks a bunch!! 👍

Dear Mr.WordTips please provide any solution or suggestion on an issue am faced with in my word 2016 the text i'll sample stand like this. Employee X Work Place Y Tasks Z This text is only portion of the complete text that i must add went in the middle of the page on it own ( because every other part that need to be aligned to the left of the page is normally aligned but this one is not and i need it to be on the left so that X,Y and Z can nicely have their bulletins and descriptions? Thank you very much for your kind and unselfish help on this matter at hand,wish you all the best ,warmest regards !

How do you create a non-breaking En dash?

First time I'm seeing your videos. Love the way you present it, we can't miss anything. I'm using styles all the time for almost everything in my documents. I've learned not to base my styles on normal style, but use "no style" in the "style based on" block.

Been getting the newsletter for years and really appreciate your efforts Allen. Didn't know about this channel and now see many more tips to explore. I also found your travel videos well made and a good watch. As a couch surfer listening to many many home brew videos, may I suggest an improvement for you? get a mic closer to your mouth, some sort of clip on. Are you using the computer's built in mic? Gives an empty room kind of echo, instead of a more desirable and warm close up voice. Thanks for your generous offerings.

I have a short, horizontal gray line in the left margin next to some, but not all numbered paragraphs. The line prints with the page. I can't figure out how to get rid of it; it is not the vertical line associated with edited text in track changes. When I hover over the line the small font/formatting menu appears with the drop down paragraph numbering icon highlighted, but it's not clear why that line appears next to some but not all of the numbered paragraphs. Help. None of these videos seems to address this, and I can't find any help with the Word help info for characters or lines in the margin.

great tip! 👍

How do you center a single image in a blank document, and then add text below?

Hi! I have a footer that contains three drawn text boxes, two of which contains images. Ctrl+A and copy paste does not work with this design. Neither am I manging to select all of the footer content and copy paste. Do you have any recommendations for my situation? Thank you :)

It was great - clear and - well, wonderful. Thanks!

This is first time 😅I am hearing Allen Though iam following his ideas for a long time now 😂🎉

Thank you

There is another challenge for me in the header & footer. My document has many sections and I need to populate header/footer in other sections by just the header/footer in *section 1* . FYI the Header/footer set to 'diff odd even pages' and has a table of 3 columns, so that this sample header/footer moves from 1st column of table in odd page to last column of even page. I tried using field styleRef but was not successful. 🙄🙄

Thanks for the tip. Now I can finish the rets of my assignment 🙏

When i tried this, it did not keep the same spacing and formatting.

Boy howdy thanks a ton

Thank you

if you don't have a numeric keypad and use shift = for +, this does not work.

Thank you ❤

How come when you are editing a document with only one column, when you go to add column, the column option is not there under layouts?

I don’t understand what a leader is. I will look to see if you addressed it in another video.

I needed this video, thank you!
