WORD SHORTCUT KEYS

Click here to go to:

Microsoft Word Function Key Combinations

Here's a quick way to find spelling or grammar errors in your Word document (as long as the "Check spelling as you type" option is selected.  To do so, go through: "Tools -> Options -> Spelling & Grammar" so you get the red and green squiggly lines under the offending items.)

Press ALT+F7.  Not only will you jump to the next error, but the right mouse menu will open up to show any suggested fixes
