    Definitely going to be switching to dark mode for the future because it seriously is overwhelming on my eyes when it’s super bright with the white background. Thanks for that advice Kevin! :)

      Another option is high contrast mode, press alt + shift + print screen to toggle on or off, or find in windows settings.

    @Kevin, I loved this review, but it would be great if there were 2 enhancements: 1. When you introduce tips, please tell us what versions this tip is available in. Some of your Top 15 were available a few years ago. 2. When you chose APA (I wish they had an entire template for dissertations!) you accidentally chose MLA for specifics. In APA the references page is called References. In MLA it's called Works Cited - and these are different. Also, you mentioned that with this tool you don't have to be an expert in the different Citation formats -- but in your example, you placed the in-text citation after the punctuation, which is incorrect -- it goes inside the punctuation "blah blah (Williams, 2005)."
    BUT I love your tutorials better than anyone else's, so please keep going. I'd love to collaborate with you on an academic tutorial.

    If you are setting up a shell or template and want to add placeholder content into the document, you can use the =lorem function which will add generic text into the document. You format it as =lorem(# of paragraphs, # of sentences) As such =lorem(2, 5) will give us two paragraphs of fake text that have 5 sentences each. Please beware that sentences won't make sense to people, but they will provide placeholder text. Additionally, you can use the =rand function, which uses the same format as lorem, but actually adds random tutorial text as a placeholder.

      I learned how to use Microsoft Office on my own when I had my first computer which a Cybernet, all-in-one PC, equipped with Microsoft Office XP Professional, running in Microsoft Windows XP Professional. I had been out of the work force since 1997. Today, I am using Microsoft Word 2019, after I replaced a defective Windows computer with a Dell computer that has Windows 10 Professional. I am doing more work and working better than I would in a typical job.

    Excellent Work Kevin! As always! The only critique that I would say would be that many of the power demonstration features you illustrate can be found only in Word/Office 365 subscriptions. For the clearest communication, when mentioning a function for future videos, it would help to mention if such feature is only offered in Office 365. The section on the Microsoft Editor tool was AWESOME! I jumped to this!!! You could do a whole video just on the power of Microsoft Editor, through both Office and the App!

    Your videos are so good whilst being clear and marked by exactness and accuracy of expression. A real breath of fresh air. Now for the serious staff. I know how to find your channel and then go and look at all the videos you have published in order to find a particular one that I want to watch once again. Is there a way that one could construct a full list of your videos, according to their titles and dates. Alternatively, you could build a similar listing which your readers could consult whenever they want to see, at a glance, what you have published. I am an enthusiastic user of MS Office and Word in particular and I think such a listing would be very useful as a quick reference.
    Keep up the good work.

    One of my favorite tips is taking a document with various fonts/sizes/colors, etc. and just wanting to enlarge or decrease everything by one or 2 points, especially when trying to fit into certain spot. You highlight the text and use the Ctrl-left bracket for decrease and Ctrl-right bracket for increase. Everything enlarges/decreases its size by one point, but keeps the different fonts/colors/style etc.

I'm wondering if you might be able to do a video on how to improve the dictation from the voice recognition option in Word. I've used dragon in the past but it's been very buggy so am moving to the word option - it's good but your videos always enable the ability to use the functions better. Thanks again

    You are my Mentor. I think your Microsoft word is at another level. I'm using Microsoft 2021, the most updated 1 but some features are not available. I've been following you for long now and i have learned a lot from your videos. Actually i find it easy to learn from you then other youtubers. For instance, I always find it difficult to learn how to use OBS for screen recording, i developed a mindset of thinking that OBS is a difficult program to learn until i gave up. When i started following you, I came across your video explain how to use OBS and it was easy to follow therefore because of you, i can use OBS by myself. I wish i could have your email address to contact you to make videos on other programs i will be interested to learn. Thank you.

    Kevin - You provide excellent instruction in your videos! Thank you! Here's one for you which I have been unable to find on the web, we have some very old macros we created in 1998! We now have Office 365. Is there a way to add the templates to a new version of Word without copying over the Normal.dotm file -- let's say when a workstation's hard drive has died and you can't copy over the normal.dotm file? Help with this one would be most appreciated. Thank you, Maria
