If you don’t use tables all that often then you can also use the same techniques for moving small paragraphs of text. If you are working with bigger passages of text however, it might be a better idea to use the normal cut and paste option.

Now to begin moving your table row, select which row you would like to move by clicking in it and then hold down the Alt and Shift keys and then depending where you would like to move the row to, press either the up or down button to move the row to your desired location.

There are a couple of simple solutions to combat this. The easiest solution is to use the SHIFT key to input upper-case letters. Holding down the SHIFT key whilst you type will change the letters into uppercase and then once you release the SHIFT key, the letters go back to lowercase so you can continue typing without worrying about an overload of uppercase text.

The second solution involves receiving a notification in the form of a beep that CAPS LOCK is still on. This notification doesn’t come from Microsoft Office but from Windows itself and alerts you with a beep each time the CAPS LOCK, NUM LOCK or SCROLL LOCK keys are pressed.

In order to activate this beep, following these steps:

Access the Control Panel and select Accessibility.

Then select the Keyboard tab and click the ‘Use Toggle Keys’ check box.

Make sure the ‘Turn off Accessibility Features after idle’ check box is not selected and then click OK and close the Control Panel.
