CTRL+ALT+E
Hi all.
Anyone knows how to disable the above keyboard shortcut ? I'm trying to use it for a different purpose but the "Customize" window doesn't work. Typing in CTRL+ALT+E in the "New keyboard shortcut" apparently takes me out of Word so the changes aren't registered. Any help in this regard would be appreciated. Yours sincerely. |

I suspect you have some other program or Windows feature configured to respond to that shortcut. By default, Word uses Ctrl+Alt+E to insert the euro symbol.

Thxs for that swift answer.
I remember changing the euro symbol recently to ALT + S, and I customized CTRL+ALT+E so that it inserts a special character. But now it no longer works. I tried to reset all my keyboard shortcuts, but it didn't change anything. Do you know how I can trace the use of this combination of keys on my computer ? Yours sincerely |

I'd start by trying the Ctrl+Alt+E shortcut in other programs, such as Notepad (which doesn't have any shortcuts of its own, only what's assigned in Windows). What happens, if anything? -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

CTRL+ALT+E
Silly me !
I used that combination to start a specific program and utterly forgot about it. Well, in my defense I must say the program doesn't really start; using the shortcut just gets me out of any application I'm using at the time. Thxs for your help and best regards. |

ALT+F4 will close any application.
