Default Word 2003 - F1 and macros

Hi Tom,

It seems there is no end to the mysteries of Word. Right now I'm trying to
figure out why a macro I just wrote which does nothing but type some
formatted text into a document is triggered with the Shift-F11 key even
when I don't assign the macro to either a key or to a menu. If I add a
hotkey, (e.g. F11), then BOTH F11 and Shift-F11 trigger the macro. If I
delete the macro, Shift-F11 does nothing. If I manually create the macro
from scratch avoiding any key assignment, Shift-F11 will again trigger the
macro.

Strange, indeed. If you go to Tools/Customize/Keyboard, click in the box for
a new keyboard shortcut, then press Shift+F11 what appears in the empty
space below? "[Unassigned]" or something else (a command name)?
