Hi Gordon
Quoting Gordon Smith <[email protected]>:
OK, are you saying just open the word file in DBT as in from Windows
Explorer? I seem to remember there used to be something under the
file menu if the templates were installed in order to have the file
you were working on in Word sent to DBT. I am basically trying to
add paragraphs and other styles to this file which was originally
just a plain text file. But I cannot find out h=how on earth you're
supposed to do things like centre text, put text into a heading,
etc., in Word 2010. These ribbons really are a pain in the neck, I
really do not like them.
Yes, you can open them in DBT, and if there are paragraphs, etc.
present, DBT will add the styles automatically.
If you are creating headings in a Word document, do the following:
1. Select the line or lines of text for which there should be a heading.
2. Press alt+h, and then tab twice. Select the level heading you want
by tabbing to it and pressing enter.
To center text n Word:
1. Select the text you want centered.
2. Press Ctrl+e.
Tip: If you are tabbing through the ribbons, listen to the accesskeys
that JAWS announces. This will help you not have to navigate ribbons so
much.
On a different subject, I simply can't get Outlook 2010 to play nice
at all. I cannot get around these ribbons there either to be honest.
I think Microsoft has really made their product worse by the
implementation of this new layout.
It took me a while to get used to the ribbons, but I like them allright
now. You might try JAWS Virtual ribbons mode. See if that decreases
your woes.
