And I can never remember whether the universal shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+8
(regardless of what Shift+8 is) or Ctrl+* (regardless of where the asterisk

Yes, you are right: if the screentip says Ctrl+ that is what you need
to type, of course, no matter which specific keys you have to press to
achieve .
It's a bigger problem that shortcuts are different in different languages
or keyboard layouts; Peter mentions the case of Ctrl+Shift+8 (ShowAll)
which on my system is Ctrl+(. Not surprisingly, Shift+8 inserts ( on my

But presumably Ctrl+ is the correct shortcut regardless of how it is
achieved? I think that's the point. If you have to shift to get , then

They amount to the same thing, as Ctrl+ is actually

Does anyone know if MS takes feedback for correcting errors for its
office
suite?
I found a tiny mistake with Word 2007. When you hover over the Grow
Font
button on the Home ribbon, it shows a shortcut key of Ctrl + . When
the
shortcut key is actually Ctrl + Shift + .
I know it is minor but it may help someone along the way.
