Hi. It's a great 'puter; I'd buy one.

AZGman wrote:Hi. It's a great 'puter; I'd buy one.

I'd buy it again! plus I got a good deal.

I keep my eyes open for them in case I want to buy one for niece or nephew.

How is everyone doing? I worked 1/2 day and then went to salon for color, highlight & cut. YAY!

Then to HEB & WalMart.

now home. I'll be working this weekend from home.

I miss Forensic Fridays on Court (Tru) TV.

Now it's "Let's see how many ways we can show Jatravartid people" Fridays.

I wonder if I can grow cocoa beans in the basement?

Having the cocoa beans does not mean you have chocolate!

First question (I think) on Word 2010. How do you center a word? Word 2000 was Ctrl-E and then Ctrl-L to get out of it. But I can't figure it out in 2010. I tried Help, but it wasn't any.

I've been dismissed.

G'night.

Center across a page?

Did Ctrl-E bring up the edit menu?

Edit: The home ribbon has most of the formatting stuff, I think.

Well, just wasted 10 minutes of my life. Must not have been holding the ctrl down long enough. All I got before was an E. Checked to see if I got what you said, and it was centered. Hope I didn't waste too much of your life. Thank you.

You didn't waste my time. I just glanced at the ribbon at the top.

That will teach us to believe anything coming out of her mouth, um, keyboard!

Edit: It is also a prime example of the need for a sarcasm font!

I'd probably wear it out.

I'm assuming the "ribbon" is all the stuff at the top of the page. Tell me which one points me to center, because I thought I went over all of them.

This getting up to be at work before 7 am business has me pooped.

night!

PS: When you said there wasn't any help... do you mean you just couldn't find that topic?

Technically, you can't center just a word... you center the entire paragraph. A paragraph is any section of text that ends with you pressing ENTER.

Okay, I missed that.

Re Help, I just clicked on File>help>Microsoft Office help. One time I typed in "center" and another time "center a word."

Help files really aren't helpful to people who need basic help and they're no good for people who need advanced help, you pretty much have to be in the middle and then you probably don't need the help they offer.

You can't get much more basic than the help I usually need.
