Shortcut Keys Do Not Save
Hi Guys,
My problem is that MS Word will not save the customized Shortcut Keys that I set up for my keyboard. I go to Tools- Customize- Keyboard, and then I assign new shortcut keys and save the changes in: Normal. I then close out of both screens. The shortcut keys work properly until I exit MS Word. When I reopen Word, the shortcut keys that I had previously set up no longer work. The same thing happens when I save Macros. For some reason, all the customized settings disappear when I exit the MS Word Application. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? The PC has just been formatted and is completely clear of errors. I have Norton Internet Security and Norton System Works installed, so everything is well protected and running nicely. The MS Word application is from a newly installed Microsoft 2003 student and teacher edition, which is updated and activated. I cant seem to figure out what is going on, and I would be extremely happy if someone could provide some on this matter!! |

Where is "Elsewhere?" I'd like to see the response. My problem is slightly different. When I assign macros to a shortcut key via Tools/Customize/Keyboard, they show up as assigned but don't work. Assigned styles do. When I delete and recreate the Macro and assign it a shortcut key at that time, it works fine. This problem is fairly new to me, though I can't pinpoint exactly when it began.

I have no idea where "elsewhere" is (possibly even earlier in this same NG),
but the issue here is often that the user is running Adobe Acrobat 7, which prevents Normal.dot from being saved.
