Default Quick Print in Word 2007

It lists only "commands," not characters. You can see the keyboard shortcut
for any character by selecting it in the Symbol dialog.

Got it, Tony! Thank you again! It's a great list, and it does include
multiple keystroke shortcuts; what it does is list the same command twice,
each with one of the shortcuts. A little strange but easy to follow
anyway. At a quick glance, though, I don't see some keystroke shortcuts
that I know exist, such as the en and em dashes. Perhaps they're not
considered commands?

If you press Alt+F8 (or the Macros button on the Developer tab) and then
under "Macros in" (at the bottom) select "Word commands", then select
"ListCommands" for macro name (at the top), and choose "All Word
commands" in the next dialogue, you will get a new document with a table
of all the commands showing built-in keyboard shortcuts (but only a
maximum of one per command so not Ctrl+W). You could sort that table to
get an alphabetic list.

Both work great, Tony! Thank you! I still couldn't get PasteSpecial,
though. I suspect once I did the pasting, the code no longer appeared in
the document and hence didn't show up when I printed the key
assignments.

Also, I printed out the keyboard shortcuts I found in the Help file and
discovered that you can also close a document with CTRL-W. I wish there
were a complete list of these shortcuts in straight alphabetical order
rather than in categories.

Ctrl+F4 should close the current document.

If you print (Ctrl+P), you can select "Key assignments" from the "Print
what" dropdown to see what you have set. What could be set is almost
anything but the command names are not always obvious.

Forgot to ask a couple more questions:

* Is there a printable list of commands that either have or could be
given keystroke shortcuts? For example, another keystroke command I've
been trying to find (or create) is for closing the last open document
but leaving Word open. I can do this by clicking on the "close" icon
that I added to the Quick Access Toolbar, but I can't find a keystroke
shortcut for it or even the command so I can create one. ALT-F4 closes
Word as well as the document.

* Will I need to create a macro to do PasteSpecial with unformatted
text? Right now, that command simply opens the dialog box in which to
choose what form the pasted text should be in.

Thank you again!

Thank you, Terry! I could have sworn I'd looked at All Commands, but
apparently I missed that one. I'm so pleased that I'll be able to set
up keystrokes to match those I've been using in WordPerfect. It'll
make switching between the two programs much easier.

Use almost the same procedure as Jay outline but instead select All
Commands from the Categories and then scroll down to the
InsertDateField command. It will show that shift+alt+D is assigned,
but you can assign any key combo that you prefer: I suggest Alt+D
which is normally unassigned.

Thank you, Tony! It works beautifully! I wonder if you could also
help with a keystroke combo I'd like to change. I want to insert
the date without having to use the dialog box. In my Word 2007
Bible, the keystroke combo for DateField is ALT-SHIFT-D, which I
find difficult to do. I'd like to change it to something else, but
I can't find the entry in the keyboard shortcuts list under any
category. I'm guessing it should be in the Insert category, but all
I see there is InsertDateTime, which opens the box where you still
have to click OK.

You can make one of your own.

Office Button Word Options Customize tab (Keyboard
shortcuts) Customize button. The command you want (in the
OfficeMenu category) is FilePrintDefault.

I've been able to customize my Word 2007 Quick Access Toolbar to
include
Quick Print, but I can't find a keystroke combination that will
do the same.
Is there one? I know that CTRL-P will bring up the Print dialog
box, but
that's not what I want.

Thanks much!
