Scrolling up and down a document is probably something you do every day. Did you know you can also scroll sideways? In many versions of Excel, holding down the Shift key while scrolling will take you sideways – this is really helpful with a wide spreadsheet.

Holding Ctrl and scrolling zooms in or out on the page you’re viewing; scroll up to zoom in, down to zoom out. This trick will zoom the whole screen on a MAC, not just the current document.Continue Reading… Click, scroll and MS Word tips for Windows or MAC
