Tech Tip

Did you know you can highlight without using the mouse?  Just use the arrow key on the keyboard to move the cursor to the beginning of what you want to highlight.

Hold the shift key while you move the arrow to the end of what you want to highlight.

Remember the END key can move you to places faster.

	Smart Morph - A free program.  Check it out and see what it can do.
	PhotoPlus -
	If you are creating a power point that is using a high number of pictures, considering using the photo album feature.
	Brainy Betty has some templates you can download when making your Power Point albums.
