Hi,

Can anyone tell me if its possible to assign a single keyboard button to
Ctrl-C (Copy)and Ctrl-V (Paste)??

For example swap Scroll Lock and Pause/Break.

Thanks alot!

Some keys can be assigned using Tools - Customize - Keyboard. Others can be
assigned using a macro. The following macro, for example, assigns Copy to
the scroll lock key:

'
' AssignScrollLockToCtrlC Macro
'
'
CustomizationContext = NormalTemplate
KeyBindings.Add KeyCode:=BuildKeyCode(wdKeyScrollLock), KeyCategory:= _
wdKeyCategoryCommand, Command:="EditCopy"
End Sub

This macro assigns the Pause/Break key to Paste:

Sub AssignPauseToCtrlV()
'
' AssignPauseToCtrlV Macro
'
'
CustomizationContext = NormalTemplate
KeyBindings.Add KeyCode:=BuildKeyCode(wdKeyPause), KeyCategory:= _
wdKeyCategoryCommand, Command:="EditPaste"
End Sub


You'd need to run each macro only once to make the assignment. By making
some commands accessible only by macro, I imagine, Microsoft hopes to
prevent users from shooting themselves in the foot. ;-)

Enjoy!
