A little slice of heaven

Posted on 08:46 by Unknown
You know when you're writing something in Word and all of a sudden there's this weird formatting going on? And you have no clue how to fix it, because even copying-and-pasting text that is formatted correctly somewhere else jumps into weird format when you put it in that specific spot? Today I accidentally moused over the button that changed all of this. Word has a "Clear Formatting" button!! This may literally save years of my life from frustration and time to fix weird formatting. The picture on the right shows where it is in my version (Word 2007). Like @TellDrTell called it: "A little slice of heaven".
