Q. How can I insert a copyright symbol into the text I'm writing in WordPad?
 

A. To get the copyright symbol in WordPad, with the NumLock key on, press and hold the Alt key and in the number key pad type 0169. When you release the Alt key, you'll have your copyright symbol. This works as well in NotePad and MS Word and perhaps other word processors.

If you're using MS Word, you can also click on Insert > Symbol >Special Characters. Click on copyright symbol and then the Insert button. A keyboard shortcut is also available: press and hold keys Alt + Ctrl + C. Other copyright symbols are shown on the Symbols tab under different fonts.

 

Q. How is a group set up in Outlook Express? I want to send email to a group without having to send a whole bunch of individual emails.

A. A group name can be created when sending a message to several people at once. When you want to send a message, just type in the name of the group in the To box. In Outlook Express, click on the Address Book, click on New, select New Group and type in a name for the Group.

Names can be added to the group by several methods:

1) click on the Select Members button, hold down the Ctrl key and click on the names of the people in your existing address book that you want, then click the Add button and click OK.

2) Click on the New Contact button to type the new name and email address, click Add and then OK. This adds the new name to both your main contact list and the group.

3) To add someone to the group but not to your main contact list, click on the name of the group, then File and Properties and type in the name and email at the bottom of the Group box. Click Add and OK.

Clicking on the Group Details tab gives you a place to add a street address, etc. With that information filled in and a connection to the Internet, clicking on View Map takes you to Expedia and shows a detail map of where the address is located.




*If left or right mouse click is not designated, left click.
