Jump to TOC in 2003 vs 2007
In Word 2003 there was an option when working with the table of contents to temporarily place a quick "jump to" command on the toolbar. I cannot find out how to get back to the TOC when I am deep in a large document in 2007. Home does not work and paging up and down takes forever. Does anyone remember that option, does it exist in 2007? I sure cannot find it. -- Thanks for your he...

Correcting Words Mis-spelled Because of Numb4ers
I have discovered that my Word doesn't recognize words like: Imme4diately, Sei9zure, and Idio5t (long story) Clearly they are mis-spelled words because of the type-o numbers included in them but Word doesn't see them as errors or catch them on spell check. How can I fix this? Do I have to add each example to the dictionary or is there an en-masse solution to recognize number-spelling...

Jag använde detta exvis för konceptpunkter, dispositionstankar, ledord oc...
