Bracketing
in Word
Have you ever wondered how
"they" do it?
You know, the people
who can create documents with things that look like this:
Of course, I'm referring
to the brackets that allow you to group items. Ever wonder where people
are getting them from?
I mean, there's one
on the keyboard, but you've got to sincerely doubt that it can be manipulated
that way, don't you think?
And you'd be right. It didn't
come from the keyboard.
These brackets come
from the Drawing Tools.
You'll have to open
the Drawing Toolbar to get to this one. (Either click the Drawing
button on the Standard toolbar or right click over any
toolbar and select Drawing from the list).
Any way you get there,
once it's open, you're looking for the AutoShapes menu.
In the list, you'll
need to access the Basics Shapes submenu.
See them at the bottom?
There they are just
waiting for you to get creative and give them a try!
