Microsoft Word Hacks

Here are some quick and easy Microsoft Word hacks to help you create, edit, and
format documents more efficiently:
1. Quickly Select Text:
 Triple-click anywhere in a paragraph to select the entire paragraph.
 Ctrl + A to select all the text in the document.
 Shift + Click to select text from one point to another.
2. Use Find and Replace (Ctrl + H):
 Search for specific words or phrases and replace them with new ones.
 You can also use special characters (e.g., replace all double spaces with
single spaces).
3. Keyboard Shortcuts:
 Ctrl + B to bold selected text.
 Ctrl + I to italicize selected text.
 Ctrl + U to underline text.
 Ctrl + Z to undo.
 Ctrl + Y to redo.
4. Paste without Formatting (Ctrl + Shift + V):
 When copying text from a website or another document, use this shortcut to
paste the text without the original formatting.
5. Insert Symbols or Special Characters:
 Go to Insert > Symbol to add special symbols like ©, ™, or accented
characters.
6. Use Styles for Consistent Formatting:
 Apply consistent formatting with Styles (found in the Home tab). Predefined
styles make it easy to apply headings, titles, and subheadings with a single
click.
7. Create Custom Shortcuts:
 Go to File > Options > Customize Ribbon > Customize Shortcuts to
assign keyboard shortcuts for your most-used commands.
8. Smart Lookup:
 Right-click a word and select Smart Lookup to find more information about
it on the web, without leaving the document.
9. Format Painter:
 Use the Format Painter (found in the Home tab) to copy formatting from
one part of the text to another. Double-click it to apply the same formatting
multiple times.
10. Page Breaks and Section Breaks:
 Ctrl + Enter inserts a page break. Use section breaks (Layout > Breaks) to
create distinct sections in a document for different formatting.
11. Create a Table of Contents:
 Use References > Table of Contents to auto-generate a TOC based on
your headings.
12. Remove Unwanted Formatting:
 Select text and press Ctrl + Space to remove any extra formatting, returning
it to the default.
13. Snip & Insert Screenshots:
 Use Insert > Screenshot to directly snip and add screenshots into your
document.
14. Compare Two Documents:
 Go to Review > Compare to see the differences between two versions of a
document.
