Word 2002 keyboard shortcut problems
I followed your advice. The two word perfect options were unchecked.
Basically, my problem is: the new keyboard shortcuts work as long as I do not close the document (even when they are aparently saved in the normal template). Once I re-start Word, they no longer appear in the list.

The symptoms you describe are all caused by having the WordPerfect options
enabled. I can't think of any other explanation. But this is the first time you have referred to "new keyboard shortcuts." What new keyboard shortcuts? If anything saved to Normal.dot is not being saved, do you have Acrobat 7 installed? -- Suzanne S.

Hi Suzanne: The WordPect options are not enabled. Sorry for the confusion,
What I meant by new keyboard shorcuts was the "customize keyboard" feature. Nothing is saved to normal.dot and yes I have acrobat 7 "Suzanne S.

Unfortunately, Adobe's "fix" for previous problems of dirtying Normal.dot is
to set the Saved property to True so that it is never saved. sigh We can only hope that Adobe will get their act together soon. Meanwhile, press Shift and then click on the File menu, then Save All to force a save of Normal.dot along with your document. -- Suzanne S.

Suzanne: I guess this is the only choice I have for now. Many thanks for
your help. It worked. "Suzanne S.
