F11 and F12 unavailable for macros in Word 2003?
On the weekend I was playing with getting dictation to work in Word 2003,
and I don't know if I screwed something up, but now I find that I can no longer use F11 or F12 as macro hotkeys. Some of you will remember me posting here a while ago about not being able to use F1 in macros... :-) When I go to record a new macro assigned to a hotkey, neither F11 nor F12 are accepted. Can anyone suggest what could be causing this? AFAIK, there are no other programs running concurrently that use F11 as their hotkey. I'm reminded of a utility I had a long time ago in Win98 that would basically tell you every key combination in Windows that was assigned to something else. This wouldn't include hotkeys within programs but it was useful to see what hotkey was assigned to which program. Does anyone know of any such utility for XP SP2?

Turning off advanced text services, speech recognition and dictation in Word 2003 restored the F11 and F12 keys. I don't remember reading anywhere that they were reserved in Word when advanced text services are turned on. I'd still like to find that utility for spitting out all the various function keys assigned in Windows. Tom -- remove .spoo to reply by email |
