Tip #92 - Rolling Through Office Ribbons

Because the Ribbons of options first introduced in Office 2007 were continued in Office 2010,  it’s safe to say that Microsoft will probably keep them around. As you probably know, clicking once on one of the tabs changes the ribbon you are viewing. While this is not difficult you might be interested in trying another way to roll through the ribbons

With your mouse on the ribbon area of the screen, roll the wheel on the mouse. Rolling the mouse toward you moves you through the ribbons from left to right, rolling the wheel away from you activates the ribbons from right to left. This is a particularly helpful tip if you don’t quite know which tab an option is on. 

Happy Computing!
