Default Keyboard shortcut to close or toggle Thesaurus/Research

Which Word version?
Word 2007:
Create the following macro to intercept the command

Sub ToolsThesaurusRR()
With CommandBars("Research")
.Visible = Not .Visible
End With
End Sub

The same command is used in Word 2003, but works in a different manner

Sub ToolsThesaurusRR()
With CommandBars("Task Pane")
.Visible = Not .Visible
End With
End Sub

Hi,
I know the keyboard shortcut to open thesaurus/research is shift + F7.
Every time I open it, I want to close it with a keyboard shortcut.
It would be great if shift + F7 was a toggle switch that opened AND
closed it. Does anyone know of a keyboard shortcut to close
thesaurus/research?
The shortcut alt + shift + c is supposed to close panes but it
doesn't close thesaurus/research.
Thanks,
Martin Gifford.
