Default Fix Thesaurus Macro in Word 2013

I have a Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga, and I am new to Word 2013. In all other versions of Word, the shortcut for the thesaurus was shift + F7. On my Lenovo, the shortcut is Fn + Shift + F7. If I simply hit shift + F7, it opens the computer's projector. I wanted to create a macro that would toggle the thesaurus, so I could close it without using the mouse. I found the following code and instructions in another forum:

Sub ThesaurusToggle()
On Error GoTo OpenT
CommandBars("Thesaurus").Visible = Not (CommandBars("Thesaurus").Visible)
GoTo EndIt
OpenT:
Application.Run MacroName:="Thesaurus"
EndIt:
End Sub

I followed the instructions, and now the thesaurus toggles/closes when it's open when I hit Fn + Shift +F7. However, something is wrong because now when I hit Fn + Shift +F7, the thesaurus opens, but it only displays synonyms for the last word I used BEFORE I created the macro. It will not give synonyms for any new words no matter how many different words I click with the mouse. Additionally, I still have to hit Fn before the Shift + F7 command or else that silly projector screen opens.

How do I fix the thesaurus to work again while still keeping the toggle feature in use? Please advise.

Many thanks!
