Most Unique Method of Editing a Word Doc

Word incorporates many different tools you can use to edit your document. Perhaps one of the least used, but most unique methods of editing your document uses the mouse entirely. You can use your mouse to move text, the same way you would move another element, such as a graphic. To move text with your mouse, you need to first ensure that the feature is enabled.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Click the Office button and then click Word Options. Word displays the Word Options dialog box.

2. At the left side of the dialog box click Advanced.

3. Make sure the check box beside the Allow Text to Be Dragged and Dropped option is selected. (The option is in the Editing section.)

4. Click OK to close the dialog box.
