Tech Tip - Word 2007: 2 Views that make all the difference
Word 2007, while a vast improvement over other versions, still can be difficult without the proper training to create and edit documents. When creating documents in Word, most users keep the print layout view on the entire time. The print layout view is great for showing what your final document will look like on paper, but not the best view for actually drafting documents. Outline View: Lets say you are creating a document that has a lot of number sections, paragraph headers and bullets. For some reason Word is skipping between paragraph #6 and paragraph #7. If you switch to the Outline View, it is usually very easy to spot your problem. Draft View: Documents in Word that are fifty pages or longer can be a real pain to edit. The longer the document, the more memory and processor your computer will use to display it. If you change the view to Draft, Word no longer displays headers, footers, and other features. This means that computer needs a lot less memory to run the program and will speed it up. This tip is courtesy of Craig Bayer, Law Office Technology http://www.lawot.com/
