Word processing is vital to many businesses but it is especially important for law firms. Any firm can increase their bottom line if they can increase the productivity of their word processing. Is your law firm using Microsoft Office? Are partners and employees comfortable and confident in their Word skills? More often than not I get affirmative responses to these questions and yet when I delve more deeply I find the people in question aren't actually taking advantage of all the time saving features that Word has to offer.

Here is a sample of the skills you and your company should be utilizing if you want to use Word efficiently. How many of them are you already using? Perhaps it is time to think about arranging some computer courses in Rawalpindi for your law firm.

Are you using the Show/Hide command?

The command for Show/Hide is on the Home Ribbon and allows the user to see what keystrokes (Enter, Tab, Space, etc.) have been used in the document. This information is invaluable especially when you are editing a document that was created by someone else. Did the author go onto a new page by pressing the Enter key numerous times, or did they add a Page or Section Break? If they pressed the Enter key, you may find a block of white space in the document when you add more text above the keystrokes. If they used a Break and you add text, you may find you suddenly have a completely blank page inserted into your document. Knowledge is power and understanding the Show/Hide command will make you stronger.

By default it put in the top left corner of your screen, just to the right of the blue Word W. It comes with the commands for Save, Undo and Redo. Click the black drop-down arrow to the right of the last command and you can move the toolbar so it shows just below the ribbon, or add or remove commands. Putting the commands you use most often here, can save you a lot of time changing from ribbon to ribbon or hunting for a command because you can't remember where it is.

Do you know where the Clipboard is and how to use it efficiently?

When you copy or cut content, where does it go? Many of us envision it floating around in cyberspace until we are ready to use it. In fact it goes to the clipboard. Launch the clipboard before you start cutting and pasting and you will see up to 24 items get added. From the clipboard you can click to place the content into other documents, spreadsheets, PowerPoint slides, email, or wherever you need it to go. The entire Microsoft Office suite shares the same clipboard so it is easy to move content from one program to another.

When you copy and paste from another document or program, does the formatting look right?

You have several choices when you are pasting content into documents. To access these
