One of my favorites in the new Operating System. In Windows 7, there are sticky notes that are native to the operating system. You can use them to set notes and reminders for yourself, to write a to-do list or jot down anything else that you\u2019d use a pad of paper for. Just open Sticky Notes by tapping the Start button . In the search box, type Sticky Notes, and then tap Sticky Notes in the list of results. To create additional notes, click the New Note button. You can also open a new note by pressing Ctrl+N.<\/p>\n

To create a Sticky Note, click Start\u2192All Programs\u2192Accessories\u2192Sticky Notes.
\nWindows opens a new blank note on the desktop, positioning the cursor at the beginning of the note.<\/p>\n

Type the text of the note.<\/p>\n

You can also format the note text if you want.\u00a0Just select the desired text and then press the appropriate\u00a0shortcut key: Ctrl+B for bold text, Ctrl+I for italics, and Ctrl+U for underlining.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll notice that the text automatically wraps to a new line, and if your text doesn\u2019t fit on the note, Windows automatically expands the height of the note to accommodate the length of your note.<\/p>\n

When you finish entering the note text, simply click somewhere on the desktop outside the sticky note itself. \u00a0Alternatively, you can click the New Note button (the one with the plus sign) to start a new sticky note. The note you create will stay on the desktop.\u00a0If you use sticky notes, you\u2019ll want to get acquainted with the Sticky Notes Quick Launch button on the taskbar. Click it once to temporarily hide all the sticky notes on your desktop. To bring all of your sticky notes back to the desktop or to the top of the windows on the desktop, click it again.<\/p>\n

To color-code a sticky note, right-click the note and then click the color you want.\u00a0Your choices here are Blue, Green, Pink, Purple, White, or Yellow.
\nTo delete a note that you no longer need, click its Delete button in the upper-right corner.\u00a0The first time you delete a note, Windows asks you to confirm the deletion. If you don\u2019t want to see this alert again, select the Don\u2019t Display This Message Again check box before you click Yes.<\/p>\n
