I can input © by menu, but can not get it by keyboard shortcuts. And I knew
that the steps should be menu--insert -- symbol -- special characters,
then find it out the shortcut key is "alt + ctrl + c". But I can not get it
after input "alt + ctrl + c"

If that shortcut has been lost somehow, you can reassign it by following the
steps in http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Custom...roToHotkey.htm.
In the Customize dialog, choose the category "Common Symbols" to find the right
command.

There's another way to get a copyright symbol, by typing (c) followed by a
space, which triggers an AutoCorrect entry.

Strangely, I cannot get Alt+Ctrl+C to work either. Word says it is the
assigned shortcut. I've tried removing it and tried to reassign it, but
Ctrl+Alt+C stubbornly refused to let me enter it into the Enter New Shortcut
box.

There's something fishy with that keyboard combination. It just isn't
working.

Are you on 2007?

Right here right now, on word 2003, it works as advertised... ALT-CTRL-C
does insert a © at the cursor location...

I have both 2003 and 2007 running on the same PC (using the NoReReg entry to
avoid clashes), and Ctrl+Alt+C works in both of them.

Terry, do you have some other software such as SnagIt that might be
snatching the shortcut before Word can see it?

No add-ins or other software like SnagIt to do this. Other symbol shortcuts
work, (r) registered for instance. But for the copyright, I can only get it
by using Insert Symbol and choosing the (c) symbol, or using Alt+0164. This
is will good old Arial font, so I am sure it isn't font related.

It is the same in Safe Mode too. I wonder if it a language thing: I'll try
English (US) and report back.

Jean-Guy... I'm using 2007.
