    Everyone be hating on Arial and TNR, meanwhile I'm here like: There is elegance in simplicity - black and white, standard, non-fancy stuff too...
    On the other hand, good step-by-step guide, very clear and easy to follow. Much appreciated!

    Although I am having LOTS of formatting issues *** using this aspect of Word, this is EASILY the BEST tutorial anywhere on the internet on how to effectively "Write A Report" and how to creating well structured "Lists". You've broken down lots of elements here into easily digestable pieces.
    Thank you for going to the effort of making, editing and publishing this video. Love your work. xx
    *** List 'numbering' won't 'hold' its format all the time, so some times it's 'wrong' + indents for 'numbering' aren't always the same + page breaks appear out of nowhere . . . . . pucking Word does my head in!!!

    Thank you, very helpful! Maybe I missed this, but do you save this document as a Word template, or do you just use it in general for new documents? Also, how to apply these styles to other new or existing documents?

    As an soft soft Mobile producer, tNice tutorials is confusing, The directwave, equalizer, and GMS I am using is different from what he is using.
