Keep That Cartridge Fresh Today's quick tip is just a little friendly reminder for all of you computer users out there! If you use a computer, chances are, you use a printer quite often as well. I know many of you even like to print out some of WorldStart's tips and to do that, you need to make sure you have a sufficient amount of ink. So, this is just me telling you to remember to keep your ink cartridges clean and fresh. If you don't print very often, your cartridges (both black and color) can dry out very quickly. You should always run your printer every so often so that doesn't happen. If you don't keep the ink flowing, it will dry up way before it's supposed to. If that happens, you'll just have to buy a new cartridge and that just wastes your money! You should also remember to clean your print heads every once in awhile. That will help keep the cartridge area clean as well. You can read here for some help with cleaning the print heads. Keeping everything fresh and up to date will benefit you greatly in the long run! ~ Erin It's Friday, it's Friday! Can you feel the excitement? Make sure you keep reading to learn all about what the difference is between Post Reply and Quick Reply on WorldStart's message board, find out how you can always keep your formatting intact in MS Excel and learn all about different buying locations and what you should consider before purchasing new computer equipment.

Q: A: So, let's go over what the differences are so that you'll know exactly which one to use the next time you use the message board. Let's start with Post Reply. That choice basically gives you more options for your reply. You can change the font style, the font size and even the color of your text. You can also add a bold, italic or underline style to your words if you want. With Post Reply, you can add bullets for any listing you want to do, you can add hyperlinks, e-mail links and you can even play around with text wrapping, etc. There are also emoticons (smileys) you can use in your message. If you say something funny, you can insert a happy face or if you're frustrated with something, use the question mark face. You can also choose an icon for the type of message you're sending. There are smiley faces, there's a thumbs up, a thumbs down, arrows, etc. Or, you don't have to use an icon at all. Once you're done, you can also preview your post before you submit it by clicking on the Preview Post button located below your typed message. If you scroll down even further, there are some advanced options you can browse through. Here you can add attachments to your message and do some other things with the threads. So, as you can see, there's quite a bit you can do with the Post Reply option. Now, what can you do with the Quick Reply feature? With Quick Reply, you just basically type in your message and then send it off. You can choose to bold, italicize or underline your text, but you can't change font sizes or anything like that. You can also choose to quote the original message in your reply with this option if you'd like to do that. Other than that, you just type in what you want to say and click on the Post Quick Reply button. That's basically it! There are quite a few differences between the two, but now that you know, you can choose which one bests suits your message board needs. You can use a little of both or stick with one way all the time. It's completely up to you! ~ Erin Have a question for the newsletter? Submit it at the link below: Keep Your Formatting Did you try yesterday's Paste Special trick in MS Excel? If so, did you find that the formatting of the cells, where the paste occurred, was gone? If you did, I'm sure you'd like a way to prevent that transformation while the Paste Special does its thing, right? Assuming that's the case, I'm here to show you a small change you can easily accomplish while making your Paste Special choices. As you choose which operation Excel should perform on the data, go ahead and select Values from the top portion of the dialogue window as well. Then click OK. There you have it. No more formatting changes for you! ~ April

Here's the link you need: http://www.worldstart.com/ Enjoy! Where to Buy Looking to buy some new software for your computer? Not sure where you should go to buy it? Then read here for some great tips on what you should consider before taking the plunge. Check it out! When you're buying new software, hardware or even a new computer, you have a few choices of buying locations to choose from. Of course, you can buy from a local retailer or from the Internet, but an auction is also a choice to consider. A local retailer is probably one of the safest buying locations, but there are still some issues that could arise. Unfortunately, some sales representatives are all about "the sale," so they may tell you incorrect information about the product you're looking at just to seal the deal. Or, even worse, they may not even know any detailed information about the product. Both of those situations hurt only you in the end. If you're talking with a sales rep, ask them to demonstrate what they're explaining to you. That way, you know for sure what the item will do. Another issue with a local retailer is the return policy. Make sure you know how long you have to return something in case it doesn't quite work the way you wanted it to or ends up breaking. You also need to be aware of the warranty that comes along with your purchase. Make sure it's offered by the manufacturer of the product or by the place of purchase itself. Now, we all know there are some concerns when ordering online. Online shopping is becoming more popular each day, but with it, comes some extended problems. When you order something from the Internet, be sure the Web site you're ordering from is secure. When you're entering in your credit card number, look at the bottom of the screen to see if there is a small padlock there, like this: If there is, it means your information will be kept secure and it's okay to continue. You can also look at the Web address for clarification. If there's an "https" at the beginning of the URL, the site is secure. If it just has "http," it's not. If you don't see either of those things, you may want to reconsider your purchase. You should also make sure the company you're ordering from is well known. If the site doesn't contain contact information for the company, be wary of ordering from them. Be aware of piracy issues as well. These days, it's very easy for anyone to copy material to their own CDs and sell them. You need to make sure what you're buying is an authentic copy by looking for documentation of the product as soon as you receive it. You can also tell if a CD is burnt by the color tint. CDs are usually a greenish or goldish tint. A good phrase to go by is "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!" When buying online, you should also check into return policies, warranties and make sure you always keep confirmation e-mails for your records. Now, another popular buying location is from an auction. You can sometimes get computer products a little cheaper from an auction, but keep a look out for scams by the actual auctioneers. Look into their history and profile before buying anything from an unknown seller. Piracy, return policies and warranties are also issues you should check on when dealing with an auction. Another type of auction is an online auction, such as eBay. It's recommended to pay by check in that type of situation, if possible. That will help prevent your credit card number from being stolen. If you have to pay by credit card, use a PayPal account for extra security. When you're buying new computer products, it's better to be safe than sorry. Items may be cheaper at different buying locations, but there are also a lot of different scenarios out there today to look out for. Make sure you do your homework before you make an actual purchase. You'll thank yourself later for doing so. Be safe! ~ Erin If you enjoy our tips, tell your friends. That's what keeps this newsletter growing.
