Recently I wrote about some handy computer shortcuts that will save you time on the keyboard. As promised in that post, Handy Computer Shortcuts, here are a few more for you to play with:
- Take you to the start of that line – Home
- Take you to the start of the document – Ctrl (control) + Home
- Take you to the end of that line – End
- Take you to the start of the document – Ctrl + End
- Create a new document – Ctrl + N
- Insert a page break – Ctrl + Enter
- Decrease font size – Ctrl + Shift + <
- Increase font size – Ctrl + Shift + >
- To change lowercase text to ALL CAPS – Ctrl + Shift + A
- To insert a date field – Alt + Shift + D
- Delete the word before the cursor - Ctrl + Backspace
- Delete the word after the cursor - Ctrl + Del
- Double-click to highlight the word the cursor is in
- Triple-click to highlight the paragraph the cursor is in
Have fun playing with those!
Here’s to your success in business,

Hey Donna-Marie, these are fantastic – thanks!
I agree, all I have to do is remember to use them!
After sitting with Tricia this afternoon having a lesson on Excel, I was so excited to see this post. Thanks
As always, really helpful information that I have ALWAYS wanted to know but never stopped to find out. Thanks!
Great information again!!!! And because you ALWAYS provide such relevant and useful info, I’ve given you an award…. http://annettepiperjewellery.blogspot.com/2008/09/quirindi-last-week-merriwa-this-week.html
These are handy tips – the kind I can never find when I need them. Now I can copy them & keep them handy until I learn them by heart. Thank you.
Ciao,
Elena
