Darn! Just found out that Aebleskiever should be bolded, italics and red….and it’s all throughout my document.

And I don’t want to deal with styles….so how can I do this quickly and easily?

The answer is Format Painter. 

What’s that?

 It’s the little paint brush that you see on the formatting toolbar or the Home Ribbon.

Okay, I’ve found it….now what?

Format the text the way you want it to look.

Done.  Next?

Highlight the text that is formatted the way you want.  If you are going to just format one thing the same way, then click on Format Painter one time.   If you’re going to use it more than once, double click on Format Painter.  If you double click, it will stay on until you click it off, or do something else in Word.

By the way, that’s how I formatted this blog entry.  And when you’re so excited about this, then go take a peek in the other Office programs and notice that Format Painter is waiting for you.

So what’s an Aebleskeiver?

It’s a Danish pancake.
