Auto Complete/Auto Text:

If you have something that you type very frequently or a long word that you frequently misspell, create an Auto Text.  This will only work if you are using Word to edit your email messages. 

• Type the word or phrase exactly as you want it (in Word or an open email).
• Select the text.
• Push Ctrl+c (copy)
• Open Word
• Click “Tools”
• Click “Auto Correct Options”
• Click the tab “Auto Text”
• With the cursor in the box, Push Ctrl+v (Paste)

Now, every time you start to type the word or phrase in an email or in Word, a little box will pop up displaying it.  All you have to do is push enter and it will Auto Complete for you.  This is especially helpful for typing “Team Double-Click®” so that you don’t always have to add the registration mark.  ~~ Amanda

How to View Two Time Zones in Your Outlook Calendar

Do you often schedule meetings with people in another time zone?

Here’s how to set up your Microsoft® Outlook® calendar to show two time zones at once:

• Go to your Outlook calendar, click View and select “Day” or “Work Week.”
• Right-click the vertical bar showing the hours of the day.
• Select “Change Time Zone.”
• Select “Show an additional time zone.”
• Pick your desired time zone, give it a name in the Label box, and click OK.

Now you have two parallel time bars next to your appointments, so when you’re thinking about planning a meeting with your colleagues in the Bangkok office, you’ll know when they’ll be most likely to be awake.
