How to Use Track Changes
Переглядів 1045 місяців тому
I demonstrate how to use the feature "Track Changes" in Microsoft Word 365. This feature provides ways to track/record/display any changes (editing, modifying) you or others make to the text in a document. It shows the name of the person who made changes and what they did. There are multiple ways to view the tracked changes, including not seeing the details at all, all the way to seeing everyth...
How to Create Dummy Text in Word 365
Переглядів 18010 місяців тому
I'll show you how to instantly create paragraphs of dummy (fake) text in Word 365. This is a handy trick whenever you want to just play around with or practice using Word buttons and menus, but you don't want to mess around with a real document.
How to Apply a Design Theme, Style Sets, and Styles in Word 365
Переглядів 1,8 тис.Рік тому
Here, I demonstrate the differences between a Theme, a Style Set, and individual Styles, and how to apply them to a document. It can be confusing. The clearest way I know of to explain it is that you start out with a document (like a business report) that you have finished typing up, but doesn't have any formatting yet. It might be easier to think of an analogy, like a brand new house. The Them...

How to Generate Lorem Ipsum in Word 365 without the Internet
Переглядів 166Рік тому
This is a really cool little trick that can come in handy for anyone needing to work with a Word document that has no meaning, just a whole lot of instant text. Sure, you can use the Lorem Ipsum generator online, and that works fine. But if you want a terrific shortcut, and I mean FAST, try this trick. You don't do any long typing, no copying and pasting, and no need to be online. As far as I k...
How to Change Placeholder Text in a Content Control in Word 365
Переглядів 18 тис.Рік тому
I demonstrate how to insert a Content Control (such as a digital text box, or a drop-down menu) into a Word document, and how to customize the placeholder text that a user would see. Placeholder text generally instructs the user on what to do. An example might be "Click or tap here to type your name." This is for a Word document intended to be seen and interacted with online, such as having peo...
Display the Developer Tab in Word 365 to Create Content Controls like Drop-Down Lists

You need to use the Developer Tab if you want to insert interactive Content Controls into a Word document intended for users to access and fill in online. Content Controls are things like drop-down menus, check-boxes, combo boxes, and digital text boxes. I have another video that shows how to c...

A Very Easy, Basic Introduction to Excel 365

How to Record a Macro in Microsoft Word 365
Переглядів 6 тис.2 роки тому
Here, I demonstrate how to create a basic macro, look at it in Visual Basic, and assign a Quick Access Toolbar button to it. By clicking on that button, the macro will run, which instantly adds a large business signature to a Word document (typically used at the end of a business letter). The signature block includes name, title, company, location, website URL.

      Easy. Just delete any text and paste your picture right into the rectangle.

    • @DebraSaybleTutorials
      @DebraSaybleTutorials 7 днів тому

      There are different things that can cause this to happen. You will have to try them to see which one works. Try these: 1) If your document was originally created in an older version of Word, and you are now using Word 365, it could be in Compatibility Mode. With the document open, click FILE --> SAVE AS and be sure to save it as the newest version of Word in the File Type near the bottom of the SAVE AS window. 2) Delete the cache files from the hard drive. (You can find UA-cam videos on how to do this). Cache files can sometimes cause such issues. 3) Make sure that the checkbox content control is set up properly. Do this by clicking on the checkbox content control feature, and selecting "Properties". In the dialog box that opens, click on the "Check Box" tab and make sure that the "Checked" and "Unchecked" values are set up. If none of the above solutions work, you might need to go to the Microsoft Community online and search for an answer there. Good luck!

      Yes, you should be able to do a "save as" and change the file type to a PDF. That being done, the PDF version of the doc should have the same clickable working links that the origiWird doc has.

    Thank you. If you select plain text you can use the tab button to go to the next fillable field. But if you use the Rich Text you can not tab to the next field. Is there a way to use the Rich text, so the person filling out the form can change color or manipulate the text, and still maintain the tab to the next fillable field? Does this make sense? Thanks!

    • @DebraSaybleTutorials
      @DebraSaybleTutorials 3 місяці тому

      If you mean you want to place a Content Control inside of a text box, then yes, you can do it easily. Just create a text box. Click inside it, and be sure to press the Spacebar at least once or twice. Then use your Left Arrow key on the keyboard to move the flashing cursor back over to the farthest left-hand space. Then insert whatever Content Control you want, such as a drop-down list, combo-box list, checkbox, or rich text entry box. Then, if you intend to include any regular text, use the Right Arrow key on the keyboard to move the flashing cursor to the right of the Content Control item you inserted. Then start typing.

    I've watched this 10 times and followed directions to a T - and the text will not turn or stay gray? Is there a setting somewhere keeping it from going gray?

    • @chloesebastianvideos9935
      @chloesebastianvideos9935 5 місяців тому

      Hmm. There might be a couple of reasons why yours doesn't turn gray. Are you using the full version of Microsoft Word 365 or 2019 for PC's? Because if you are using any other version that might be the trouble. A "wrong" version might be if you're using Word for a Mac computer. Or another "wrong" one could be the free version of Office or Word online. Those software versions might not work the same as Word 365 or 2019 for PC's. Another possibility is that someone altered one or more Word settings on your computer. You can resolve that by entering the Background and exploring things there (click File and in the very bottom left corner click Options).

      I simply type, using the video's example, the letter "F" before the period. Then, I delete/backspace everything before the "F" and then proceed to type "First Name." It works for me, hopefully it does for you too. 🙂

    I had the same issues, my local MS Word 365 kept loading files as compatability mode and I needed to convert. I am not sure why I deeded to convert as I was saving them as .docx. Went into Trust Centre enabled all macros and Active X, still cluld not insert a check box even after I shut dowmn and rebooted the machine. I went to the online verions,. and again no menu for the developer tab, ...then a second thought, I created a blank document from Word Online 365, saved it to my desktop and then used my desktop version to load the same blank word doc, and now the checkbox options work....wow..three hours later and ten videos ...what is the big deal about developer tab, why does Microsoft have to make it a big deal, just have the MS Word package fully optimised out of the box...I hope this helps cheers
