How can I add to my existing resume in microsoft word?
The easiest way (but perhaps not the "cleanest" if you're a purist) is to
copy formatting from a paragraph that looks the way you want the new material to look. Type in the new material, ignoring the fact that the format doesn't match right now. Then put your cursor in an old paragraph that looks the way you want the new material to look and hit Ctrl-Shift-C. This will copy the formatting from that paragraph. Then move your cursor into the new paragraph and hit Ctrl-Shift-V. The new paragraph should take on the characteristics of the old paragraph. Then if certain parts need to be bold or italics, make those changes.

Most résumés in Word are set up as tables, using specific styles. It will
help you to see what you're working with if you display the table gridlines (Table | Show Gridlines) and the Styles & Formatting task pane (or at least look at the style box) to see what styles are used for what types of text and apply them accordingly. -- Suzanne S.

How can I add to my existing resume in microsoft word?
My resume used to be in tables. The new version, as of Sunday, has very
little data in tables. I'm just hoping that the content is more effective than it had been. FWIW, I'm going for some testing tomorrow at two places.
