Office 2010 Key Beyond basic Latin characters - Wo

I firmly believe that if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right. But I am always looking for ways to make doing it right, easier. So I fully employ AutoCorrect whenever I can to help me get it right with a minimum of effort. Just like we discussed last time, AutoCorrect is a handy feature to help you correct your frequent mistakes while your fingers are flying across the keyboard. It can even come in handy when you aren't making a mistake. Take Ay&ccedil;a,Office Standard 2010 Key, she's the OneNote product manager on my team, is originally from Turkey, and is blessed with a cedilla and a diaeresis in the spelling of her name. Now just as my name isn't Cris or Kris or Criss her name isn't Ayca or Eyecha, it's Ay&ccedil;a. Of course it isn't exactly efficient for me to type <A> <y> <Ctrl>+<,Office Pro Plus,> <c> <a> every time I need to type her name in email. So I use AutoCorrect to help me do it right with a simplicity factor of 10. (As an aside,Office 2010 Key, this is a place where text boxes in the browser - including your favorite web-based document editor - really fall down. They just can't get as close to the keyboard messages as your favorite desktop-based document editor can. So maybe they put up a clunky dialog where the scroll bar doesn't even work properly,Microsoft Office 2007, or worse yet they don't even give you a way to properly spell your colleague's name. You can't argue with 25 years of evolution, man. There's a reason this stuff works so well.) Another good use of AutoCorrect is to have it insert frequently-needed symbols for your particular job or role. I received email from a law student who was looking to save himself the headache of inserting the section symbol &sect; in his documents. It's a non-trivial effort to remember that it's Unicode 0167. It's not easy to force your keyboard into Num Lock just to type <Alt>+0167 and get that character. So you can use AutoCorrect to do it for you. I chose the shorthand ".s." for the section symbol and set up my AutoCorrect to tackle it for me. I can't imagine typing a legal document in a web browser window. I think I'd rather yank out the bottom can from that nice pyramid display of clam chowder at the market and let it all come crashing down on me. Certainly that would be easier to fix than section marks in an online text editor. One other thing you should note is that your AutoCorrect list files (*.ACL) are typically stored in your <userprofile>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Office directory. If you make a bunch of customizations to one machine,Office 2010 Professional Plus Key, and you want to move them to other machines (and you aren't already enjoying the benefits of a domain-joined roaming user profile) then you will need to copy these files from machine to machine to save yourself the trouble of rebuilding them by hand each time. The one thing I am still searching for is an appropriate AutoCorrect entry for ".writeannualreview." Every time I use that one my manager says I'm not self-critical enough. Chris Bryant
