Burn Baby, Burn!

Do you have a CD writer in your computer? Ever wish you had some really great software to burn with? Hmm, how about some software to create CD really cool lables? (I hate those lable-less "mystery disks")

Well, that's what we were thinking when we came up with this offer!

We have created what could be the ultimate CD burning bundle for you. We have NERO Express and The PrintShop CD Label Creator for only $19.97! (FREE US Shipping) Both are current titles and have a combined retail of nearly $95.00!! How's that for a deal?

NERO Express:

First off, let's look at my new favorite CD burning software, NERO Express. This program makes burning CDs incredibly easy - but at the same time it's extremely powerful. It's fast becoming the burning software of choice for thousands across the globe. After using it, I can see why. My only regret is not switching sooner!

To say this is program is full featured is an understatement (take a look at the page on our site). Naturally, it can do all the basics - create CDs (or DVDs if your drive supports it), make copies of CDs, do backups, etc. One of the really great features is the way it allows you to use a CD-RW like a floppy drive. Just drag a file to it and it will write it to CD! Incredibly easy!

It also includes a utility to edit wav files, a fantastic media player, an MPEG video encoder, test utilities, video menu creators, and more! It even lets you drag and drop JPEGs and create a slide show on video CD! Just pop it into a DVD player and you can show friends and family your trip to the bahamas! Is that cool or what??

I could go on and on, but once you get to the page below, you'll see how powerful this software really is!

The PrintShop CD Label Creator:

The second part of this deal is The PrintShop CD Label Creator. This fantastic program makes creating professional looking CD tables a snap. With 100,000 online images, 10,000 images on the CD, plus over 1000 different layouts, creating that perfect CD label is easy! Oh, and yes - you can use your own photos - it even lets you edit them from within the program!

It uses a handy little Wizard interface, so it's a very fast, step my step procedure. Of course, you can edit whatever the wizard creates or just create a new label from scratch. It even includes tutorials to help answer any questions you may have. Finally, since it's from the makers of The PrintShop, you know it's a quality piece of software.

I wish I could go on, but I don't want to write a book on these two programs! They are both incredibly good, and the bundle price is fantastic. Just think, for $19.97, you can have the ultimate burning kit! Oh, if you only want one of the programs described above, you can buy them individually. Click the link below now!

PS - Don't miss out! This is an incredible deal and we may not see this good of a price again! Remember, if you don't think it's as good as I say it is, just return in within 30 days for a refund! Nothing to lose - unless you wait and miss out!

MS Office 101

An Office Assistant That Delivers

No not pizza delivery - sorry - but something you can really use.

How about a tip delivered to your desktop at program startup everyday?

If you like reading Office tips in little doses then you'll love this. The only question is how do you arrange for this little delivery?

Well, the first thing you need to do is to get the Office Assistant running.

There are many ways to do this, but one of the fastest ways is to hit the F1 key.

When the Assistant opens he should give you a dialog box for you to enter your question. Look at the bottom of this box.

See the Options button?

That's what you're looking for. Click it.

In the Office Assistant window go to the Options tab.

You're looking for the option called Show the Tip of the Day at Startup. Make sure this box is checked. (Its exact location will vary with program version but it should be somewhere toward the bottom.)

Click OK.

There you go. Now you'll have a tip delivered right to your desktop every time you start an Office Suite program. (Of course each tip will pertain to the program you've launched.)


Office Tip of the Day

Creating A Table In MS Word Without A Mouse

What?

You can create a table without a mouse?

Are you sure?

Yes - I am and it's easier than you might think.

All you need to know is how to line up your plus and minuses.

(Yeah - I said plus and minuses.)

To get Word to draw a table, without a mouse, you need to start by going to the place where you want the left side of the table to begin. (You can begin your table at the left margin or tab in some for an indented table.)

Once you're in the right location then type a plus sign (+) followed by a series of minus signs (-). The longer the string of minus signs, the wider the column becomes. Then, when you're ready to start a new column, type a plus sign again (+), followed by more minus signs (-) to create the width of the second column.

Keep repeating the pattern, where a plus sign (+) indicates a new column and the minus signs (-) create the width of the column, until you've created the number of columns needed.

Then, to end your table put one last plus sign.

Then hit the Enter key.

Poof! You should have a 1-row table. (We'll get to adding more rows in a minute.)

For example - this string of signs

***If this isn't working for you then you need to go to the Tools menu, AutoCorrect choice. Then on the AutoFormat As You Type tab make sure the tables option is checked in the As you type section

Now we move on to the issue of additional rows.

Of course you're free to use the mouse in the Table menu, Insert Rows choice.

However, if you want to add a row without the mouse you have a couple of choices.

The first is to press Alt, then A, and then the I key. (Basically the key equivalent to the mouse and the menus.) Then hit the F4 key to continue adding rows.

Another choice would be to go to the last cell in the table (far right cell or, if in a table with many rows, the bottom right cell) and hit the Tab key. (You can use the Tab key to scroll through to the last cell or, if you're in the last row, you can hit Alt + End to get to the last cell in the row.)

And there you have it - quick tables without mice.

Who would have thought that all those plus and minus signs had a use beyond math class and driving you crazy?
