<b><i>Practice Tip</b></i>Smart Tags Elevate Word Docs IQ and Integration
One of Microsoft's key design goals when developing Office XP was to give users more control over their day-to-day work flow and to make the ever expanding feature sets of the Office applications more readily accessible to the average user. The impetus behind technologies such as Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) and the more recent COM and ActiveX technologies were to allow for individual Office applications such as Word and Excel to share data and to work together more seamlessly.
Smart Tags, a new feature introduced with Office XP, takes this technology to the next level. With Smart Tags, the focus is on the data itself – the text you are inserting into a document – rather than on the mechanics of how you insert that data into the document.
Smart Tags give you one-click access to a variety of Office features as you type. Much like the Office spelling & grammar checker utilities or AutoCorrect feature, a Smart Tag is automatically evoked when a text string you type is recognized by the Office application. Word, for example, automatically recognizes dates, times, addresses, names, telephone numbers and even stock symbols as you type, and then presents you with a menu of options as to what to do with that text.
