Final answer:

To copy the same formatting multiple times, use the Format Painter by selecting the formatted text, double-clicking the Format Painter button, applying it to other text, and then deactivating the Format Painter.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to copy the same formatting many times, the best tool to use is the Format Painter. This feature is available in many Microsoft Office programs like Word and Excel. Here's how to use it:

  1. First, select the text or object whose format you want to copy.
  2. Next, go to the Home tab, and in the Clipboard group, double-click the Format Painter button. This will keep the Format Painter active so you can apply that formatting to other parts of your document.
  3. Then, select the text or object to which you want to apply the formatting. The format will be copied to the new selection.
  4. After you've finished applying the formatting, click the Format Painter button again or press ESC on your keyboard to turn off the Format Painter.
