Thank you for correcting my lingo. I did mean heading, and I am going to keep these instructions. Thank you very much.

Hello Judy, If you actually mean a header then the following doesn't apply. I am thinking you likely mean that you want to make the first sentence of a paragraph a heading. The following applies in Word: You can select a sentence by pressing function key 8 three times. If using a mouse in Word you can hold down CTRL and do a single left click on a word to select the entire sentence. You can use a Word built-in heading style or one you have created. To use heading 1 style use Alt with CTRL and 1. This makes the selection a heading 1 style having a 16-point size of the Calibri Lite font and the font color is blue. If you use CTRL with Alt and 2 you get a heading 2 style, which is the same font and font color but the size is 13 point. Using CTRL with Alt and 3 will use a heading 3 style, which is the same font but size 12 point. If by chance you mean you want the first line of a paragraph to be a heading then just select the line by moving focus on to it and using shift key with down arrow to select it. You can then use shortcut keys for the appropriate heading. There are of course many styles to choose from but the first three levels of headings are quite often used in Word documents. If you actually mean you want to create a header where text goes above the document in the empty white space of the top margin then of course steps are different. Take care.

Hello again, I understand how to manually format for font, underline and bold with the control key keystrokes, but was wondering how to make the first sentence in a paragraph a header. Thanks again.
