    1. I 'think' it came out with the 2013 version of Office, so I didn't know about it until recently either. I'm going to be hunting for other cool tips to share, so be sure to check back in. Thanks for stopping by!

  7. Amy! Amy Amy! I loved this! Seems a lot easier than I thought--at least while I'm watching you. I don't usually do the "reorder part"--what a great strategy! You've inspired me! Can't wait to see what we learn next...

    1. Sorry, just seeing this. Do you want to add a border that is clip art or just create one in PPT?
