Word 101 for Dan

Did you know that if you are working on a Word document and you want to be able to see one part of the document while editing a completely different section, you can freeze a portion of the document on the screen?  You can accomplish this dual view by dragging the little divider bar down from above the scroll bar.

Looking in 2 places at once

 

FYI - this trick works in Excel as well.  This way you can keep you column headings on the screen while editing detail cells way down the page.

Now you know, and knowing is half the battle

I would classify that as a 200 level feature.  Could it be any more inconspicuous?
