I've got a tip that will ensure you never accidentally hand off an uncompleted Word document again with whatever placeholder text you rely on.

Word has not one, not two... but three different kinds of placeholder text you can insert in your draft project with a few keystrokes.

If you’ve worked with templates on Word, Docs, or any other word processor, you are probably familiar with the arduous task of replacing every bit of placeholder text in the document.

Position the cursor on the Word page and drag to form the size of the box. Click inside the box, automatically erasing the placeholder text. You can now type text inside this box or leave it blank.
