Technology Tip Tuesday

Posting Date(s)

This tip applies to Windows users only, which is most of the campus. The less you use the mouse, the better for your body, and the less likely you are to get aches and pains in your wrist and forearms. To use the keyboard to navigate Word’s interface, tap the Alt key once. Word will display boxes with one or two letters next to everything on the interface that you normally access with the mouse. Type the letter or letters to access the feature. More boxes with letters will appear as you drill down to the exact option that you want. It takes a while to get used to, but it's worth it. 

Happy Halloween!
