Sometimes You Have To Use Add Tab Stop..,

  Sometimes You Have To Use Add Tab Stop..,

Once In A While You Have To Use Add Tab Stop..,

So, what is going on in this scenario? Example:

Heading 1.
Part 1.Termination Provisions(Hard Return)

In the scenario above, we have a Heading 1, whereby the word "Part" and the automated "1" represent the Numbering aspect of the Heading 1 in the Multilevel Outline.  The Textual Aspect of the Heading 1 is the words "Termination Provisions" which is controlled by Modifying Heading 1 itself and adding your Font and Paragraph related attributes,

Note:  In the Heading 1 sample above, note that the word "Termination" is very close to the auto number 1 and can use some space.

1.  Normally, in your Multilevel Dialog Box, we choose "Follow Number With Tab Character" which usually gives us a complimentary 0.5 spacing between the Numbering and Textual Aspect of the Heading,  in the case above, it did not, so we have to use "Add Tab Stop" which is right underneath "Follow Number With",

2.  To determine the Tab Stop position, go back to your screen and on the Termination Provision line look at your ruler and see what the ruler location would be in order to make the spacing look better.  Let us say that we decided that 0.8 on the ruler was the location that would create some space and fix the problem.

3.  Go back into your Multilevel Outline Dialog Box for Heading 1, and Add Tab Stop at 0.8 which should now solve the tightness issue.  Too much distance or too little distance go back and adjust your "Add Tab Stop" until it looks good.

   Extracting All Hyperlinks From A Document: Scenario :  The attorney has submitted to the WP Center a large file for editing.  This file contains many hyperlinks as well.  The attorney asked us to (besides editing the document), to extract all hyperlinks to a separate document.  They want to have handy, a listing of all of the hyperlinks that were used in one easy place to go through them so that they do not have to go throughout the document looking for them.

   MS Word Legal:  The Strategy Session Volume 2 Getting Ready and Structure First:  Clearing up those Issues From The Very Start That Tend To Hold Us Back… Authored by Louis Ellman  Clearing up the very thing that confuses most new MS Word users that is of course  Page Numbering and Section Breaks!   I wrote this book only a few years ago but it holds up fine and our students use these methods every day! We teach for the public, top-tier legal firms, outsource legal staff, large corporations and we consistently see one thing that they all have in common: They do not have a routine that they use before they ever start editing a document.  Also, they do not have a routine that they use to properly segment, page number and title all items relating to structure.  This is across the board.  This book goes over these routines piece by piece and this is the same vital and unique info that we personally share with our students including ma...
