Discover the Secret to Finding Where Any Movie or Show is Streaming Online

With so many streaming sites now available, how can you find where your favorite movie or TV shows are available? And how much will it cost to watch?

Online streaming is here to stay. Popular sites such as Disney+, Hulu, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, HBO Max, YouTube and Paramount+ all have content to view.

Maybe you subscribe to one or more of these sites.

But how can you find which site has the movie or show you are looking to watch?

There are a few cool tips for finding your shows:

When using a Roku, AppleTV or FireTV device, use the built-in search function to see if your show is listed
Use Google to search. For example, enter watch <name of show>.
In this case, Captain America: The First Avenger

The Google results show that the movie is available on Disney+ if you have a subscription, and several other sites to rent to view.
You can also select the Edit Services link to select only the streaming services you want to search.
Finally, use JustWatch.com to search for the show. In this case, I again searched for Captain America.

JustWatch also shows that the movie is available at Disney+ along with AppleTV. But it's missing several other viewing options.
In this case, Google is a clear winner in finding Captain America to watch.

Enjoy!

How to Open a New Window View in Microsoft Excel

Are your Microsoft Excel documents so large that you can't see what happens when you change data?

Opening a new window view in Microsoft Excel can be a great way to organize and compare different parts of your spreadsheet.

This can be useful when your Excel document is large and you want to see how changes in one part of the document affects another part.

Here's how to do it:

Open Microsoft Excel
Open the spreadsheet you want to work with.
Click the View tab on the ribbon at the top of the screen.
In the Window group, click the New Window button. This will open a new window with the same spreadsheet.

You can now move and resize the windows as needed.
To switch between the windows, click the View tab again and select the window you want to work with from the Switch Window.
Now you can make changes in one window and compare it with the other window side by side.

Tips:
-This works best when using more than one monitor.

-You can also use the Arrange All button in the Window group to automatically arrange all open windows on your screen.
-If you have multiple windows open, you can use the Switch Windows button to quickly switch between them.

By using this feature you can easily work with multiple parts of your spreadsheet at the same time, which can save you time and make your work more efficient.
