I tend to do a lot of clicking and dragging the cursor to select text in Word. But these two tips are very useful for saving time and effort when it comes to grabbing sentences and paragraphs.
If you want to select an entire paragraph in Word, just quickly click three times anywhere in the paragraph. Voilà! Your paragraph is selected!
