To make Word stop turning you typed addresses into hyperlinks, simply click on Tools | AutoCorrect (in Word 2002, click Tools | AutoCorrect Options). On the tab marked 'AutoFormat as you Type' look at the bottom of the box called 'Replace as you Type' and uncheck the box marked 'Internet and network paths with hyperlinks.'

Word will never take it upon itself to change your typed Web and email addresses into glitzy, cheap hyperlinks.

If you WANT Word to create a hyperlink, just type the Web or email address, select it, and click the Hyperlink icon on the standard toolbar. It's the icon that looks like a map of the world with a chain at the bottom. Click OK once and you're all linked up.

Hit Alt-PrtSc while in a program window to capture the image to the Clipboard, and then insert the image using Edit | Paste. But if you don't always need the entire image; there is there an easy way to crop the image in Word.

In Word 97 or Word 2000, click on the picture to select it and eight handles should appear; one in each corner of the picture and one halfway between each corner. This also brings up the Picture toolbar. Click on the Crop button in the tool bar and move the mouse pointer over one of the handles. When the mouse pointer turns into a crop symbol—similar to a pound sign—simply click and drag to crop the image.

Word's Bullets And Numbering feature enables you to create numbered lists and outlines by formatting lists for you automatically. You can apply list numbering using the Bullets And Numbering command on the Format menu, the Numbering button on the Formatting toolbar, or the AutoFormat As You Type feature's Automatic Numbered Lists option.

Occasionally, you might wish to include an unnumbered line or paragraph between list items. For example, you might want to follow item number 3 in your list with an unnumbered paragraph offering detailed information about that item. To do so, you'd press [Enter] to begin a new line and
then turn off Word's automatic list formatting temporarily by toggling the Numbering button. At this point, you can type whatever you want and Word will refrain its automatic numbering. When you're ready to continue your list, press [Enter] to begin a new line and then click the Numbering button to resume the previous list's numbering scheme.

Unfortunately, when you interrupt a numbered list with an unnumbered paragraph, Word assumes you're beginning a new list when you turn the Numbering button on again. In other words, it would apply the number 1 (or A, a, I, i, etc.) to the current paragraph when you toggle the Numbering button. If you'd like to continue the previous list rather than begin a new one, choose Format | Bullets And Numbering from the menu bar. Select the Continue Previous List option button and then click OK. When you do, Word resumes the numbering sequence of the previous list, in addition to the same numbering scheme, without affecting your unnumbered paragraph. For example, if your previous list contained items numbered 1, 2 and 3, the continued list would begin with item number 4 instead of 1.
