I’m sure everyone’s been on a Microsoft Teams meeting that is running longer than expected, and they need to leave for an appointment or errand. Unfortunately, hanging up on the call may not always be an option. Now, you have the option to transfer the meeting to another device, such as your iPhone. Here’s how it works…
Creating a new list from an existing list in SharePoint Online
This is a feature I haven’t used as much as I should, as it would save me a ton of time. Even better, I can create new lists from lists in *other* sites, too! Here’s how it works…
Sending a Microsoft Teams conversation item to Outlook
In a perfect world, everyone you need to involve in a chat or channel conversation in Microsoft Teams will be present in that particular Teams workspace (or even in Teams in general). But the world is not perfect, and many people still live in their inbox. If you need to inform someone of a Teams chat or conversation, you can email them a copy of it so that they will know what’s going on. Here’s how you do that…
Cortana Daily Briefing emails
If you have a ton of items on your calendar and in your inbox each morning, it can be a bit overwhelming to sort through things and figure out what needs attention right away. There’s a new feature in Microsoft 365 called the Cortana Daily Briefing email. Here’s what’s going on there…

Printing a blank copy of your Microsoft Forms
While Microsoft Forms is best used when your recipients are online, there are times when you need to provide a copy of the form to someone who doesn’t have access to your environment. Microsoft Forms accommodates that with the Print Form feature. Here’s how it works…
Using the Responder Progress Bar in Microsoft Forms
There’s nothing quite as frustrating in surveys when you answer a series of questions and click Next… and more Next… and more Next… and you have no idea when it’s all going to end. Now in Microsoft Forms, you have the ability to add a Responder Progress Bar so that your responders have hope that it’ll all end soon… Here’s how it works..
Expand/Collapse button in SharePoint lists
If you’re fortunate enough to work with a large-screen monitor, you may not have much of a problem with how much data displays in a SharePoint list.
