Key quotes:

• hey guys today I'm going to show you how to copy data from protected Google sheets and Doc's so you might have come across documents like this where the owner has disabled the download option and make the copy option and you can't even write this in order to copy but it is not impossible to copy as the browser has to download it somewhere in order to display and even Google doesn't claim this as a security feature but rather it discourages people from copying so I want to make it clear that by using this method you will not be able to straightaway download this document but rather you'll be able to copy and recreate the document so without further ado let's start first open the URL which you need to copy from and now in the URL you have to delete the part after back slash edit and replace it with HTML pee-yew and that's it now you will get this version of the sheet here you will be able to copy data across the sheets and paste it in the new sheet but the thing is the row and column numbers also will be copied along

• If you’re that person who’s constantly annoying your co-workers by frantically clicking on your mouse like a crazy person, it’s time to familiarize yourself with some keyboard shortcuts
• Again, there are tons of different keyboard shortcuts you can use to speed things up in Microsoft Word — this barely scratches the surface! Let’s say that you have a document that you’re creating repeatedly — like a weekly report, for example
• Using Microsoft Word’s “Quick Styles,” you can save all of those formatting preferences so that they’re ready to go next time you need to create a document
