2. We have published some useful tips and tricks for getting the most
out of Office 2010 and 2007. This article compiles 10 of the best
tips and tricks we have covered.
3. Create a Customized Tab on the
Office 2010 Ribbon
Office 2007 included the new Ribbon interface which
some people found awkward and confusing to use.
However, Office 2010 added a new feature that allows
you to create your own custom tabs on the Ribbon. You
can group specific commands that you use most often
on your custom tabs for faster and easier document
creation and editing.
4. Save Time by Customizing the
Quick Access Toolbar in Office 2007
The previous tip showed you how to add a custom tab
so you can group often-used commands in one place.
You can further customize the Office interface by
adding commands to the Quick Access Toolbar. This
provides one-click access to your most-used
commands.
5. How to Backup and Restore Your Office 2010 Ribbon
and Quick Access Toolbar Customizations
Now, that you learned how to create custom tabs on the
Office 2010 Ribbon and how to customize the Quick Access
Toolbar, you can backup both the Ribbon and the Quick
Access Toolbar so you can import the same customizations
into Office 2010 on another computer. The following article
shows you how to backup the Ribbon and the Quick Access
Toolbar in Word, but the same method works in the other
Office 2010 programs.
6. How to Find Office 2003 Commands in
Office 2010
Have you just upgraded to Office 2010 from Office 2003? If you skipped
over Office 2007, you may be having trouble locating your favorite
commands from Office 2003 on the new Ribbon interface. Microsoft
created and interactive guide to the new Ribbon interface in Office
2010 to help smooth the transition from Office 2003 to Office 2010. The
following provides a link to the interactive guides and also shows you
how to install them on your computer for offline access.
7. Bring Office 2003 Menus Back to
2010 with UBitMenu
The previous tip showed you how you can make the
transition from Office 2003 to the new Ribbon interface in
Office 2010 and 2007 easier. However, if you really miss the
familiar menus and toolbars from Office 2003, you can get
them back in Office 2010. The following article shows you
how to use a tool, called UBitMenu, to bring back the Office
2003 menus and toolbars in Office 2010, and even how to
hide the extra Ribbon tabs to make Office 2010 more like
Office 2003.
8. Insert Horizontal Lines in Word
Documents Quickly
Generally, when inserting a horizontal line
in Word, you need to access the Borders and
Shading dialog box. However, there is a
quicker way of inserting different styles of
horizontal lines. The following article shows
you the keyboard shortcuts for inserting the
different styles of horizontal lines to save
you time.
9. How to Crop Pictures in Word,
Excel, and PowerPoint 2010
When inserting a picture into your Office
documents, you might need to crop it to
show only a specific part of the picture and
remove other areas. You can do this directly
in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The
following article shows you how to crop
pictures in Word, but the method is the same
in Excel and PowerPoint.
10. Center Pictures and Other Objects
in Office 2007 & 2010
Once you insert your picture and crop it, if
needed, it may be difficult to get your
picture perfectly centered in your
document. The following article shows you
how to center pictures and other objects in
Word and PowerPoint 2010; however, the
method is nearly identical in 2007.
11. How to Take Screenshots with
Word 2010
If you’re working on a document in
Word 2010 that includes screenshots,
you can easily use Word to create the
screenshots, rather than another third-
party tool, thus saving you time. The
following article shows you how to use
Word to take screenshots and paste
them directly into your document.
12. Add Security to Your Important
Documents in Office 2010
If you’re sharing Office 2010 documents with other
employees through your company’s network, you
might want to add security to the documents so only
certain employees can access the documents. The
following article shows you how to restrict editing and
encrypt your documents in Word. You can also apply
encryption to Excel and PowerPoint documents.
However, you can only restrict editing in Word and
Excel.
