Default Blank Word Doc Opens Randomly

I have a user that complains of a blank Word Doc opening randomly. I suspect
he may be accidentally keying a shortcut or something because his computer
has been replaced this year and it continues to happen. Does anyone know
what the keyboard shortcut for opening Word is?
Thanks!!

There is no default shortcut to start Word, but you can assign one.
Right-click the desktop icon for the program and choose Properties,
and fill in the Shortcut Key box in the dialog.

If you don't yet have a desktop icon, go to the folder (a
version-specific folder under C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office) that
contains WinWord.exe; right-click that file and choose Send To
Desktop.
