ExCel and Word
« on: February 14, 2015, 05:28:00 PM »
I'm writing a question sheet for students, and I am trying to write the questions in word using numbers from Excel. Does anyone know how to keep ExCel always on top so I don't spend my time toggling between ExCel and Word.

Duh question I know. I've done this before, but Help isn't really helping, despite various searches.

You could connect a second monitor, and move excel to that screen. You'll soon fall in love with the extended workspace.
Well, it is like this: The truth doesn't need insults. Insults are the refuge of a darkened mind, a mind that refuses to open and see. Foul language can't outcompete knowledge. And knowledge is the result of education. Education is the result of the wish to know more, not less.

Starting with Win7, press and hold the Windows key then press either the right or left arrow key. Word or Excel will use the left or right side of the screen. Do the same for the other program, press and hold the Window Key using the opposite arrow key.

Everyday is a learning day, that helps enormously. Thanks.
