Cut and Paste alternatives etc.

If you are handicapped or are fed up with the mouse there is an alternative

i.e. the Keyboard has a number of functions built in

For example

If you move the cursor ( Obviously by the arrow keys ) to the point which you want to highlight

Then press F8 twice ( The first press nothing appears to happen ) it selects the first word and on the next press the Sentence etc. until the whole document is highlighted.

If you want to do it speedier after the first two F8’s use the arrow keys to take the highlighting further.

When you have the text you wish highlighted press F2 (This is the Move key)

Now take the cursor to where you wish to paste and press Enter.

That’s it

Below is a list of other Word Function Keys

F1 Help

F3 Insert Auto Text

F4 Repeats the last thing you did

F5 Opens Find and Replace

F6 Moves you to the next frame or document

F7 Invokes Spell Checker

F8 Extends a selection

F9 Updates selected fields in a document

F10 Instantly Highlights the File Menu

F11 Moves you to the next field in a document

F12 Throws up the Save As Dialog

Now isn’t that going to be useful ?
