It's always nice to learn a new tip or trick or two. I knew much of the content, but I did learn some useful things.
This was a good presentation and one that I still need further work with to be proficient. The presenter did a great job and I liked how she walked you through it.
I was happy to learn about easier, quicker ways for formatting captions, page numbers, tables of contents and of authorities, and text in general.
I've been working with Word for a long time and think I know it pretty well, but I learned a lot of good formatting tricks by watching and listening to Ms. Johnson and downloading her course materials. Thank you!
Many MS Word mysteries solved, thanks!
Thank you - even though I do not litigate it was very helpful
