MS Word Time Saving Tip

By JC Kadii, Mortgage Virtual Assistant^SM

This Microsoft Word tip is for those of you who have to type long, difficult to spell words. Some examples include: long unwieldy urls, hard to spell names, names with a list of titles or credentials.

Microsoft® Word’s Autocorrect feature allows you to create a nickname or shortcut for long text.

The great part about this is, once you set up an Autocorrect option, it works with most Microsoft Office applications (Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher, etc.).

Here is how it works.

Click on the Insert menu, click Autotext, and Autotext again. When the dialog box pops up, select the Autocorrect tab.

Under the Replace box, enter your nickname or short cut (ex., mva). Under the With box, type the long text (ex.,Jackie, Mortgage Virtual Assistant, TheMortgageVA.com).

Click OK.

Here’s an example of a shortcut that I created.

Whenever I type “mva,” “Jackie, Mortgage Virtual Assistant, TheMortgageVA.com” is automatically inserted.
