Welcome to the
Inaugural Edition of LawTech'Niques In case you don't know me, or remember me, my name is Adriana
Linares, I’ve been training and helping lawyers with their computers and
technology for many years and decided to start a newsletter as another way to
reach out to the legal community. The goal of this newsletter is to help
improve your technology relationship one tip at a time. We'll cover common
desktop tools and application as well as those that are specific to the legal
profession. This issue comes loaded with a
Word Keyboard Shortcuts
Cheat Sheet.
Outlook
- Get A Quick Look If you're like most, you might feel like you spend too much
time in Outlook and not enough being "productive". Speed up your
Inbox review process by turning on AutoPreview - which shows you the first 3
lines of an email message. In Outlook, go to View > AutoPreview to turn on.
You can now use your up and down arrows to quickly look at and
move through emails tapping the delete key as you go. Word
- AutoCorrect for More Than Corrections You know how Word automatically corrects certain words you
misspell or mistype? That feature is called AutoCorrect (very creative). It's
a nice tool, yes, but can be SO MUCH NICER if you learn to use it to your
advantage. Use the feature to help you quickly insert phrases or strings of
text that you type every day. For example, my name is Adriana Linares, I can
"program" AutoCorrect to spell out "Adriana Linares" when
I type "al". If your firm has a long name, you can create a quick
shortcut for it. Say, your firm is named, "Clued, Inn and Able,
PLLC" - you can create an entry that results in that when you type
"cxa" (the space bar after the last letter of your entry executes
the macro). Regarding the shortcuts: use 2 or more characters, do not use
real words, you don't need to use caps and you can use numbers. Here's how: In Word 2003:
