CONTROL OVER A TO Z

One of the keys whose importance may have gone unnoticed by most of us is the Control key (Ctrl). The Control key in combination with the 26 alphabet keys can make a lot of our work easier than we think.

36. CTRL+ L Justify Left
37. CTRL+ M Indent
38. CTRL+ Q Remove paragraph Formatting
39. CTRL+ R Justify right
40. CTRL+ T Margin release
41. CTRL+ U Underline


These keys combos can be used to do other operations:-

42. CTRL+ D Opens Font Dialog Box
43. CTRL+ F Find
44. CTRL+ G Go to page, section, line, heading etc
45. CTRL+ H Find and replace
46. CTRL+ K Insert Hyperlink
47. CTRL+ N Open a new document
48. CTRL+ O Open an existing document
49. CTRL+ S Save
50 CTRL+ W Close an existing document
51. CTRL+ Y Redo
