Add A Manual Page Break In Word 2007
Page breaks mark the end of one page and the beginning of another. There are two different types of page breaks: automatic page breaks (also called soft page breaks) and manual page breaks (also called hard page breaks). As you move onto another page in a document, Word automatically inserts a page break. If you [...]
Restart Page Numbering In Word 2007
In a previous article, I outlined how you can add page numbers to your document. By default, Word will use continuous page numbering. However, if your document contains multiple sections or chapters, you may want to restart numbering for each one. Before you can accomplish this, you need to insert page breaks where you want [...]
Social Networks: We Need Bridges, Not Silos
Every day, I seem to receive at least one email or invitation to a new “social network” of sorts – and just about every one of these networks are networks unto themselves. That is to say: they’re community silos, not community expanders. This is frustrating – and I don’t see the trend changing anytime soon. [...]
The GodFather v0.70
When it comes to MP3 management, there are a lot of programs out there that will do a lot of things. It is often hard to find a good power tool that will let you organize and rename your files, and going through each one – one by one – is torture. If you find [...]
Zookoda
As a blogger, you want people to stay in tune with any new content that you post, and they usually do this by either visiting the actual blog or subscribing to its associated RSS feed. Although these two methods may be at the top of the pile, you shouldn’t forget about e-mail because there’s a [...]
The IM Client Formerly Known As GAIM
Inveterate IM-ers know about GAIM, the cross-platform, Open Source IM client. Many years ago, when the project was begun, GAIM was known as GTK+AOL, the GTK referring to the library used to produce the graphical user interface (GUI). Relax, we’re mostly done with the letters. AOL, of course, took exception to the use of its [...]
Enable Track Changes On Word 2007
If multiple users are working on the same document, you may be required to track your changes. This means that any changes you make to a document are visible to other users. This fits into the editing process where your changes to a document are accepted or rejected. To enable the Track Changes feature in [...]
Create A Table Of Contents In Word 2007
A table of contents (TOC) is always a good tool for making your way through a long document. Adding a TOC to your document is simple if you have included styles (this can be built-in styles such as Heading 1 and Heading 2 or custom styles). To add a table of contents to your Word [...]
Out Of Context
I should compose all of my blog entries full screen like this, eh? Then you can see how fast I type and how many typos I make in real-time. If I stop winging it? Move to the left? Maybe if I sit back a bit, it’ll work better. Wow. This isn’t perfect, but I can [...]
Colr.org
As I’ve lamented before, I have no real design skills, and this shows through in my choice of colors and color schemes. I know what I like, but I have no idea if my color combinations are technically correct, and to be honest, I don’t really care. However, with such a large rainbow of colors [...]
