If you find yourself consistently manipulating
entire paragraphs at a time, perhaps there's a
quicker way to cut and paste your words in Word.
Position the cursor [I-bar] anywhere in the
paragraph and hold down ALT+SHIFT. Now, use
the Up and Down arrow keys to move that
block of text around within the document.

Good news: the paragraph will never stop in
the middle of another paragraph.
NOTE: hitting the Left and Right arrow keys
will change the style of the selected text.

Google Web search now allows searchers to search for "numerous" non-HTML files, including Corel
documents. Corel documents are not listed as a searchable filetype in Google's advanced search.
However, if you search for filetype:cdr inurl:cdr you will get Corel documents listed, along with links to view them as HTML files. Google apparently also recognizes at least some Microsoft Works files (filetype:wps), Microsoft Write (filetype:wri), Lotus WordPro (filetype:lwp) and SQL files (inurl:sql filetype:sql). Theoretically you can search for ANY filetype using the filetype: syntax; you just won't always be able to read it. (The search inurl:foo filetype:foo , for example, will get you results.)

In Microsoft Word, if you've lost the place where you last made an edit change, Shift+F5 returns you to that point. Subsequent Shift+F5 key combinations will toggle through the last three edit locations.

We can end the tragedy of Repetitive Mistake Syndrome in our lifetimes — and save a few trillion dollars’ worth of dumb decisions — if we can just remember one simple fact: the Net is a world of ends. You're at one end, and everybody and everything else are at the other ends.

• To place a program icon on the Windows XP Start Menu just below Internet Explorer and your email client, right-click it in the Start Menu and choose Pin To Start Menu. It's permanent in its placement, that is, until you again right click on it and choose the Unpin option.
• To restore My Computer icon, just right click on a blank space of the desktop and choose Properties|Desktop|Customize Desktop and select to have all, some, or none of the icons listed there displayed on your desktop like the good old days.

• Block Popup: No need of installing IE 6.0 + Google toolbar to stop annoying pop ups.
• Print: You can now set header, footer, page orientation (Landscape/ portrait), shrink to fit page width option, check print preview and more.
• RSS Reader: Supports In-built RSS reader so you don't need one more software.

If a task takes more than 3 or 4 clicks to accomplish, then the task is not worth computing. Not Vice Versa. Or may be you are not worth the both.

Use one of the Google hacks.
You can also exclude certian domains from your search. For e.g. when I search for Shantanu Oak, I don't want to see results from shantanuoak.com!
