  			  HELPFULL HINTS ON 1-2-3
			      FOR PCs AND MACs


There is a quick way to adjust column widths with 1-2-3 ver. 2.3 and 1-2-3 for Windows.  Place the mouse 
pointer on the right boarder of the colume title.  The cursur will change to a double headed arrow pointing 
left and right, this indicates that you can change the width of the cell by dragging the pointer either left or 
right.  Once the column is set to your width just let the mouse botton go.

To center a heading using 1-2-3 ver. 1.3 or 2.3's WYSIWYG that occupies several columns just load 
WYSIWYG from the add-in options (ALT F10).  From the WYSIWYG menu, select Text, Align, and 
Center or what ever format you perfer.  Highlight the range of the heading and press Enter.  To align the 
heading with the column it corresponds to, choose Text and Clear, highlight the range of cells with the 
headings, then press Enter.   For 1-2-3 for Windows, select the cells that you want centered then click the 
Center SmartIcon.  

To set your 1-2-3 to go into a directory your in by typing the program name provided that 1-2-3 is in your 
PATH statement.  Open 1-2-3 then select Worksheet, Global, Default, Directory.  Delete the current 
directory then press Enter and then select Update.  This will allow you to start up 1-2-3 from any directory 
you in and work with the worksheets saved in that directory.

To move around a large spreadsheet quickly and efficiently you can use the F5 (GOTO) key for the range 
prompt or F3 (NAME) for a short list of range names.  By pressing F3 twice, you can see a full screen 
listing of range names.
