Making new friends with Microsoft shortcuts
Keyboard shortcuts are such a simple time saver and an ergonomic perk for your wrist when spending a lot of time on your computer. Use the following shortcuts and see how easily a friendship emerges with your Alt and Ctrl keys:
Alt + Tab = Cycles you through all open documents/programs
Ctrl + a = Selects absolutely everything in a document
Ctrl + c = Copies whatever you have selected
Ctrl + x = Cuts whatever you have selected
Ctrl + v = Pastes whatever you have on your clipboard
Ctrl + s = Saves your file
Also, no matter which Microsoft Office program you’re working in, right-clicking is one of the greatest shortcuts available. Right-click any Microsoft Office program to display a shortcut menu that gives you quick access to many of the most commonly used features – what a wonderful quality to save time!
