Word key assignments
Hey,
This may be a bit of an unusal question, but hopefully someone can help me with it... There are some keys like Ctrl+= which is programmed in word to give you subscript, or Ctrl+Shift+= which is programmed to give you superscript. However, I've changed my keyboard layout so that Ctrl+= is actually a letter in another languages alphabet for when I write to other countries. (Using the ms keyboard editor). This works fine in all programs I've so far tried including ie, ms publisher wordpad and many others.....However in Word this has a special assignment. So I went into (Tools-Customize-Keyboard) and removed these special assignments from the normal.dot file. However, when using word (and only word) I can't use these keys. Works fine if I write an email or anywhere just not word. And since I took it out of the keyboard commands for word I'm not sure why word is not allowing them to work. Just an FYI, now that I removed the sub/superscript setting it just does nothing when I hit that key combo. Any suggestions of other hidden settings I don't know about? |

Word key assignments
I'm not sure why Word does or does not pay attention to your keyboard editor
changes. However, you can make the same assignments in Word as you made in the keyboard editor. You should note, however, that you can specify WHICH TEMPLATE keyboard customizations are stored in. You may not want to store them in Normal.dot, which will make them effective in all Word documents. You might choose to create a template just to hold those customizations, and bring it into and out of effect by storing it in your Startup (Word Startup, not Windows Startup) folder and checking or clearing the corresponding check box in Tools Templates and Add-ins.
