How do I get shortcuts for symbols to "stick" and not reset?
I use en and em dashes A LOT in Word documents. In the past, I have assigned
shortcuts to frequently used symbols. However, my brand new computer resets them every time I reboot! I have to reassign them on a daily basis. The computer help guys at Dell weren't able to figure it out either, but Microsoft wants to charge me $35. Help! Has anyone else run into this? ... And been able to fix it??? |

How do I get shortcuts for symbols to "stick" and not reset?
Is Adobe Acrobat 7.0 installed on the computer? If yes, then the
Acrobat 7.0 Create Adobe PDF toolbar add-in for Word prevents Word from automatically saving changes to the Normal.dot global template (which is where keyboard shortcuts are stored unless you tell Word otherwise). See http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/331259.html for several solutions to the problem. DSW Editor wrote: I use en and em dashes A LOT in Word documents.
