sharing shortcuts
I have several users that open files I've created, and I'd like to create
keyboard shortcuts for symbols, so that everyone uses the same symbol when they make changes and save the file. Is the shortcut saved with the file, or saved with my computer? How can I 'send and share' my shortcuts? Thanks.... |

Keyboard shortcuts *can* be saved in individual documents, but by default they're saved in the Normal.dot template which stays on your computer. To control where the shortcuts are saved, set the "Save changes in" dropdown in the Customize Keyboard dialog to the name of the current document *before* you assign a shortcut. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
