Displaying System Information

Summary: Want to find out all sorts of information about your computer system? Word makes it easy with the simple press of a shortcut key. (This tip works with Microsoft Word 97, Word 2000, Word 2002, Word 2003, and Word 2007.)

As you might imagine, Word keeps track of quite a bit of information about your system. You can see a bit of this information by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1. This displays the Microsoft System Information dialog box. You select different categories by using the tree display at the left side of the dialog box. You can also choose from quite a few more categories, including Proofing, Graphic Filters, Text Converters, Display, Audio, Video, CD-ROM, and OLE Registration. The actual number of options at your disposal depends on how your system is configured.

Spend a little time exploring the information displayed in the Microsoft System Information dialog box. You may be surprised at the tidbits you find.

Tip #1864 applies to Microsoft Word versions: 97 | 2000 | 2002 | 2003 | 2007


Great Idea! Word is a tool to get what you really want—printed output. This means you need to make sure that Word works as well as possible with your printer, whether it is sitting on your desk or in a room down the hall.
