Trying to use #MicrosoftOffice on Windows recently after many years on macOS was frustrating.

I still know a few of the classic Word menu-based #shortcuts like alt-F-V for file print preview, and alt-E for the edit menu etc. I was one of the holdouts who kept the underlining in the menus ('KeyTips') when they became hidden by default. But with the 'new' ribbons, the older menus are gone (unless on macOS).

However, their shortcuts live on - there must be a nice list somewhere, maybe via archive.org? Help!

"In newer versions of Office, most of the old Alt key menu shortcuts still work, too. However, you need to know the full shortcut. For example, press Alt, and then press one of the old menu keys E (Edit), V (View), I (Insert), and so on. A notification pops up saying you're using an access key from an earlier version. If you know the entire key sequence, you can still use it."

This new open-source office suite wants to replace #GoogleDocs and #MicrosoftOffice

» There are many open-source alternatives to Microsoft Office and Google Docs, but most of them don’t have web-based collaborative editing. The new #EuroOffice project aims to fix that with a “truly open, transparent, and sovereign solution for collaborative document editing,” using #OnlyOffice as a starting point. «

Ein Grund, weshalb ich in meinem „Betrieb“ keine Microsoft-Abos habe, CoPilot auf allen Arbeitsstationen/Notebooks komplett deaktiviert ist und nichts in die Cloud geht.

Die Zuger Regierung muss da definitiv nachbessern!

Are you still using older versions of Microsoft Office? Be aware that support for Office 2021 will officially end this year. Upgrading now ensures you won't be left vulnerable to new security threats later on. Don't wait until it's too late!
