Styles get mixed up in Word when pasting from another document

There are a lot of different explanations showing how to keep source or destination document formatting when pasting text from one document to another. One thing however seems to be missing in all these descriptions and that is when the destination document is completely new. In this case, the source style formatting always seems to override the destination. Like shown below where a .doc text fragemnt with certain styles for headers, is pasted into a .docx default header style document. As can be seen, the Heading 1 formatting has taken the form of the pasted document, whereas Heading 2 is kept in its original form from the .docx document.

The trick is to first enter some text containing all kind of styles that shall be kept, i.e. enter some text with Heading 1, Heading 2 etc. and then paste text from other documents. In this case the buttons on the clipboard dialog can be used to select the wanted formatting.

Subst directories in Windows

Substituting directories in Windows is still needed from time to time, and still awkward to do by hand (subst-command etc.)
So, therefore the small tool VisualSubst comes in handy, and can be found here: http://www.ntwind.com/software/utilities/visual-subst.html

This tool howeve comes with its own small awkwardness:

- Select a free drive letter from the dropdown box.
- Select the catalogue to subst.
- Then, dont forget to press the +-icon.
- Also, dont forget to check 'Apply virtual drives on Windows startup'.

Now, what is the need for substituting catalogues in the age of graphical operating systems? One good reason is to e.g. add p: for program files(x86) when sharing projects that refer to this location on different machines, 32 and 64-bits.
Another reason is to get a shortcut to use in e.g. make files or IDE-environments, when projects are put under personal Documents catalogue or put into Dropbox.

Remote Desktop Connection keyboard shortcuts

Becuase I always forget how to perform actions like ctrl-alt-del in Remote Desktop, in Windows, here is a short list (very short):
- ctrl+alt+end (for ctrl+alt+del)

Programming quick help

This looks like a nice way of getting quick help: http://www.gotapi.com/widgets/index.html However, it does not seem possible to add another search box, for a different language, on the same page. So, I first I tried to make another post for trying out C, but since Blogger put the posts on the same page, that does not work. Go to the link above and try out their previews. To try it out, enter a search phrase (Python):
