a quick way to create a timeline in WORD,

 Like PPT, WORD also has a SmartArt function which can be used to quickly create a timeline. 

Two ways to go: 

WAY 1

1. In WORD, type out a list. 

2. Copy the list. 

3. Click on SmartArt, and then choose Process, and then choose one of the process templates. 

4. then, in the left-hand text box, paste in the copied list. 

WAY 2

1. As in WAY 1, but start with Step 3. Type in the list items. 

========

Either way, if there are sub-steps in each main step, in using Way 1, just press TAB, and type out each substep 

===========

Final Reminder: USE Horizontal as the Page Orientation.
