Daiya,

Thanks for the reply.

If it helps clarify this question--I've always understood that the
keyboard
assignment is different from the macro.

It does help, thank you. I'm afraid I've worked with good old WordPerfect
for too many years. I'm trying, I really am, but Word seems a mass of
unnecessary illogicalities and frustrations.
