SHORT, BUT VERY SWEET!

JAR YOUR MEMORY

Office 97 or Office 2000 users who suffer occasional amnesia (Where's that file? What did I name that file?) should check out the Journal in Outlook. There's a cheat sheet listing all of the Office applications and files you've worked on and when.

AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

For easy access to a document you are currently working on, drag the file from Windows Explorer onto your desktop to create a handy shortcut.

FASTER FREQUENT FINDS

Save time on frequently run searches using Explorer's Find File or Folders option. Before a search, select Options/Save Results. After the search, select File/Save Search to put a shortcut to the saved search results on your desktop. To run the search again, select Find Now.

IT'S AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE

You accidently saved a file to the wrong folder. Which one? In Windows Explorer, select Tools/Find/Folders. Type the filename (or a wildcard such as *.DOC) in the Named area and click Find Now; then drag the discovered file to the correct folder.

GO, FONTS, GO!

Too many installed fonts slows your system. More than 700 can cause Registry problems. Take a font count by selecting Start/Settings/Control Panel, and then Fonts...the font count is on the Status bar. View a font by double-clicking its name; remove it by selecting File/Delete. An even better approach to handling your fonts is to purchase or download one of the many available font handlers.

WINDOWS EXPLORER

Did you know that when viewing the contents of a folder, you can click on the heading in the right side of the window and the contents will be visually rearranged according to that heading. For example, click on Name at the top of the window, and the contents will be placed in alphabetical order. Click Modified, and the contents will be placed in date order, with the most recent dates at the top of the window.
