Computer Shortcuts
Using the Auto Correct feature in Outlook can be a great time saving tool. It will allow you to create text shortcuts for phrases you use frequently when composing e-email messages.
If you have created shortcuts on your desktop more than likely some of them use the same icon. For example: a shortcut to ANY folder (no matter the name of the folder) will always use the same folder icon. You can change the icon to easily differentiate between the shortcuts.
The Quick Access Toolbar can be a great tool for users upgrading to the newest versions of Microsoft Office. This will work in Word 2007, Word 2010, PowerPoint 2007, PowerPoint 2010, Excel 2007, and Excel 2010.
The Quick Access Toolbar is a customizable toolbar located at the top left corner of Microsoft Outlook 2010. You can select the commands you use the most to add to this toolbar. It is a great time saving tool! The Quick Access Toolbar you see when you are in your Inbox, a Folder, Calendar or Contacts is DIFFERENT from the Quick Access Toolbar available when viewing e-mail messages.
Most browsers have a toolbar you can add your favorite websites to. You can access them with just one click of the mouse as opposed to opening up your favorites list.
