VIEW
IN WORD

Business Computing Tips

The VIEW menu option in Word is often completely forgotten, but can be
quite handy.
Take a large document where you need to look for one bit but you can't
remember a word or phrase that you can do a search on. You can go up to VIEW
and change the view to outline. That shrinks the document to just the
headings.
Then you can do a quick skim and often find things much faster.
Or check the web view, or print view, to see what bits disappear when you
go to publish.
Toolbars are controlled from here too. If you need a toolbar and you can't
see it, go to VIEW => TOOLBARS and make sure it is checked by clicking on
it so a tick appears by the name. If you are not sure which toolbar does what,
then tick them all and just get rid of the ones you don't want by clicking the
small x in the top right hand corner of the toolbar. We covered more on
toolbars in K-tips before in macros and the
basics.
More on VIEW next time.
