Hacking the Hover Info
I'm using Word 2000 on XP Home SP 1. When I mouse to a toolbar
button, I get a little hover description of what the button does. I want the hover description to show the keyboard shortcut for the command. Can I set Word or XP to show the keyboard shortcuts? Can I hack the registry to make it do that? *(((({ |

At the bottom, check the box for "Show shortcut keys in ScreenTips". -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |

From the Word 2003 help file:
Show or hide shortcut keys in ScreenTips 1.. On the Tools menu, click Customize. 2.. Click the Options tab. 3.. Under Other, select or clear the Show ScreenTips on toolbars and Show shortcut keys in ScreenTips check boxes. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Hallelujia! I got the customize option set now to show the keyboard
shortcuts. Great! Unfortunately, it won't show any keyboard shortcuts that I have added myself to various commands or macros. Oh well, I can usually remember those ones. PS: What's a VBA? ?? Verb in active voice? *(((({ In the last exciting episode on Tue, 24 May 2005 09:10:58 -0500, "Charles Kenyon" wrote: |From the Word 2003 help file: | Show or hide shortcut keys in ScreenTips | 1..

I posted in LongDocs because it's the best group, for me, to get
answers to Word questions. It has less traffic, and fewer truly basic quesitons than the other Word groups do. Plus, I always get a good, quick reply. :-) In the last exciting episode on Tue, 24 May 2005 18:35:23 +0200, "Robert M. Franz (RMF)" wrote: |*((({ wrote: | PS: What's a VBA? ??
