Finding It the Easy Way


Today's tip is extremely simple, and something I can't believe I didn't know until recently. I am quite computer proficient, but I honestly did not know this trick until our son Austin pointed it out to me. Have you ever tried hitting Ctrl F on your keyboard? (Hold down the Ctrl key while you also hit the F key.) No matter what page you're on -- a website or just one of your own documents -- it pulls up a "Find" tool. You can type in any word and it will search the document or web page for it. I have found this very useful just in the short time I've been using it. I think you will find lots of uses for it, too.

It pays to hang out with young people. They know stuff.
