Tips to unlock the Word file!


Sometimes you might have come across problems in opening and reading a Word Document file. You may have seen squares and other geometrical figures replace the text contents. After all manipulations inside the document you may have become frustrated with your failed efforts - as I was then. But I found out a way to convert these gibberish figures into readable text. Right click on the file icon to get Properties from the drop down list. In the Properties, near 'Opens with:' click on the 'Change.....' tab to get the 'Open With' dialogue box. Now you get the 'Choose the Program to open this file' option. In the list select Microsoft Office Word and click OK, and close the Properties. Now double click on the file icon and see that the file now opens in Word, and rejoice in reading it!

Translate with Google Translate!

Though there is an international language, some nations in the world are self satisfied with their own language as sufficient for their communication needs. But in this age of globalization, international issues and problems like the pandemic diseases (such as Swine Flu) and other disputes have to be dealt with globally. All have to know and understand what is happening in other nations. Here comes an aid for that in the form of Google Translate. With this one foreign language can be converted into his/her own language and read to respond. Simply one can first select a language from the Select Language drop down list found on the Google Translate widget, that is present on the page of the website or blog. Within seconds the whole web page would have been now converted into the selected language! And then go and read the contents in the selected language. Even this blog post can be converted here and read!
