Hi, I'm Joel Levy owner of PC Applications. I have been providing quality Windows and MS Office Training and Consulting services to Central Colorado for over 16 Years. I have been specifically teaching computer classes since 1993 and bring incredible enthusiasm in a relaxed, laid back style that makes the learning fun and enjoyable. My personable teaching style makes it easy to understand concepts of how the software works, not just what buttons to click. My experience in working with Windows and ALL of the MS Office Applications at ALL levels allows me to explain things from a broad perspective comparing and contrasting MS Office features.

Even more about keyboard shortcuts

So far in the first 2 blogs about keyboard shortcuts, I provided information about specific shortcuts such as cut, copy and paste. Now some generic information about shortcuts.

Have you ever noticed that in many dropdown list in a menu, to the right of the command such as Edit>Cut there is Ctrl+X in this case? Yep, that's the keyboard shortcut for that command. I was teaching a class yesterday and mentioned this to the 2 attendees and they both were surprised that they had "never seen that before".

If you tend to do the same thing over and over again like Edit>Find you may just remember Ctrl+F. You may also find the command you learn in one application is really more generic and works in many applications such as Ctrl+F for Find...

Happy Shortcutting
