Once you are finished, go to the area in the document you’d like the list to be created and press Ctrl + SHIFT + F3 to paste all of the highlighted areas you’ve just copied. You can do this multiple times until you have found each word/phrase. Instead of going back and forth, writing each item onto the list each time you see a word, you can simply highlight each word and press CTRL + F3. Let’s say you need to go through a document and pick out certain words/phrases and create a list from them. After, type the contents you’d like it be replaced by. Next, click on Replace, then type in the word or phrase you want to replace.
Have you just finished a lengthy document and just noticed you made a small mistake for a word, for example, writing land mark, instead of landmark? You can fix this within a few seconds by using find and replace.įirst, press Ctrl+F and the find and replace tool will open. Instead of clicking and dragging to highlight an area of text in Microsoft Word, you can instead click once to place the text cursor at the start of the area you’d like to highlight, hold shift, then click at the end of the area you’d like to highlight.
If you would like to clear the formatting on everything in your document, press Ctrl+A to highlight everything in the document and then click the clear formatting icon. The icon will look like a small eraser next to the letter A. If you want to clear the formatting of a specific part of your document, simply highlight that area and click the Clear Formatting icon.
Doing this will ensure that the contents get pasted but any formatting, such as text color, size, and font, will not be included. If you need to copy something from elsewhere but don’t want the font to change from what you’re currently using in your Word document, copy it like usual, but then press Ctrl+Shift+V.
