PC Tips for today

Google has released another new version of their popular Google Earth application and it is now available for download. Now, if you're not sure what Google Earth is, you'll want to read here and learn all about it before you continue on with this tip. Otherwise, make sure you keep reading to hear all about the new and exciting features that have come along with Google Earth 4.2

The theme behind this new version is "Explore the Sky in Google Earth 4.2" and let me tell you, that's the perfect way to put it. To top it off, v4.2 has come with a new program called Google Sky. With Google Sky, you can simply fly into the universe to view approximately 100 million galaxies and 200 million stars. Basically, it allows you to see the sky at a very high resolution and trust me, you won't be disappointed. Some of the images you'll see will just blow your mind!

Along with all of that, there have also been some changes made to other parts of the planet you have already explored in earlier versions of Google Earth. Google Earth 4.2 just makes them ten times better! More satellite images and facts have been added to it as well. There are some new features for any local spots you may want to check out too. Everything has been covered with this new release and I think you'll be amazed with everything you can do with it. So, if you're ready to explore the earth like never before, you can download Google Earth 4.2 for yourself right here. And don't worry, the Google Sky addition will come along with that download as well.

Table Headers

Do you make extra rows at the top of every page and manually put the titles on each page?

I suppose you could, but I wouldn't recommend it. That could make for some messy editing later on, should you need to remove or add any rows.

So, if that's not the answer, then what is?

The solution you seek can be found in one simple word: Headings.

Basically, what you need to do is tell Word which row contains your column headings and it will then automatically put that row at the top of each new page in the table.

Since this is automatically done for you, it won't require you to manually move the titles every time you add or delete some data. It's a huge timesaver that makes the table so much easier to handle.

So, how do you get to these little timesaving wonders?

Well, believe it or not, you can have table headings with just two steps.

First, you need to highlight your column headings.

The second, and final step, is to go to the Table menu, Heading Rows Repeat choice. (On older versions of Word, it will say Headings instead).

That's it! You've now got your headings set for the entire table, regardless of how many pages you may print.

Here's a side note about table headings: I found that you will only see the headings on every page in the Print Preview screen or in the Print Layout view. (Go to View menu, Print Layout choice for that).

The headings will print anyway, you just may not see them if you choose to view the document in another format.
