You have added a lot of websites into your favorites list. Do you know you can also add local folder and/or files as well to your favorites menu?
Start word. Choose File/Open. Now navigate to a folder that you'd like to access quickly in the future. Choose Tools - Add to Favorites. Note that you can add folders and individual files.
To quickly open a folder that you've added, Choose File/Open and then click Look in Favorites. Your favorite selections will appear in the dialog box.

The search feature built into the latest versions of Microsoft Word is too cumbersome. In order to search a single folder for all files containing a particular word requires a minimum of ten mouse clicks. Well, there is a better way. This should help with any word processor or text editor, not just in Word.

1. Close all open programs and click once on your desktop. Press F3 and, in the Look In box, type in the full path to the directory in which you save all your text and Word files (the default is usually C:\My Documents).
2. Now, in the Containing Text box, type in a short series of characters that would not be found in any of your existing text files. Something like QWT or the like. Start the search for which you should find no matches in the subject directory (C:\My Documents or whatever).
3. Once the search is complete, save it by going to File/Save Search. Once you finished the save you'll notice a new icon on your desktop.
4. Now the trick is to make this saved search easy to access while working with any text editor or word processor (or combination thereof). Right click the new icon, drag it across the Desktop a short way and select Create Shortcut Here from the menu that appears when you release the button.
5. Right click the new shortcut and assign a hot key so that you can launch it quickly without accessing your desktop. One good suggestion would be Ctrl+Shift+F. You could also drag it to your Quick Launch bar.
6. Now, any time you are working in any text editor, or combination of text based programs of any type, and you need to find a specific file in your central text document directory, you can just press the hot key you assigned and substitute QWT (or whatever you typed in) with the word you're looking for.

How do I create a macro that will automatically complete the mailmerge process?

Copy and paste the following code in Notepad.
Save the file as "mailmerge.vbs" (With quotes)
Run the file when you want the master.doc file to pick up the data from a file and output the data to output.doc file. The name and location of the data file should be inbuilt into master.doc file.

All these three files must be present on e: drive. (Or any other location you choose)

Set objWord= CreateObject("Word.Application")
strFilePath ="e:"
strFile="master.doc"
strFileDest="output.doc"
objWord.Application.Visible = True
Set objWordDoc = objWord.Documents.Open(strFilePath & "\" & strFile,,True)
Set objWordDocMailMerge = objWordDoc.MailMerge
objWordDocMailMerge.Execute True
Set docDest = objWord.ActiveDocument
docDest.SaveAs strFilePath & "\" & strFileDest

If you want to close all the files and quit word then add the following lines..
docDest.Close False
objWordDoc.Close False
objWord.Quit
Set objWord= Nothing

I had mentioned a few ways to avoid junk mail in my article http://oksoft.antville.org/stories/140047/
There is a better way of dealing with the junk mail. You can create temporary, use and throw type of e-mail addresses. For e.g. whenever a site ask for my e-mail address and I don't want to disclose my true yahoo e-mail address, What I do is, simply create a new one on the fly! If the site name is freehouse.com, I tell it that my e-mail is, freehouse@shantanuo.cjb.net
Now when they send me an e-mail, I receive it in my yahoo inbox. If I find that it's a junk mail, I simply login to cjb.net and forward my newly created e-mail freehouse@shantanuo.cjb.net to junk@hotmail.com or something like that.
This method is better than blocking the sender's e-mail address, because spammers often change their "from" e-mail address.
Once you register with cjb.net you can create as many e-mail addresses as you want! All e-mail addresses will be forwarded to your true email account. If you don't want one of those addresses, simply forward it to somewhere else!
This site does not only help you to fight spam but it's a great tool to get organized. So what are you waiting for? start today! http://www.cjb.net

There is so much discomfit, pain, anguish in the day to day life, that it's hard to maintain and improve the relationship with other people. I am ready to forget all that anguish and hatred I had to suffer in the past due to spoiled relations provided all of those people and things get out of my life. That's the only way to forget. You can't forgive unless you forget. And you can't forget unless you farther or distance yourself from those objects.

You may need to hide a file to save it from accidentally modified or deleted. Right click on the file and select the hidden check box.

Now if you want to see the file, choose View - Folder Options - View Tab - Hidden files - Show all files. You will now see the hidden file once you refresh the screen. You can now right click again on the file in question and change it's status back to normal.

The CSS code of my weblog http://oksoft.antville.org/ is as follows:

a {text-decoration: none;}
a:link {color: #FF3300;}
a:visited {color: #FF3300;}
a:hover {
background-color: #FF3300;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
a:active {color: #FF0000;}

Well, what does it mean?
There is no text decoration applied to the links.
Link color is red.
Visited color is red again.
Active color is red but in different shade.
Hover color is white with red background.

Remember, LVHA (Link, Visited, Hover, Active). Any other sequence may become problematic.
