Once I have edited the keyboard, how to I save the result?

I have several times tried to edit the keyboard (mapping keys differently
than in the default). Even though the dialogue box seems to say the result
will be saved in 'normal', if I shut my system down, the default keyboard
always results. How can I save my preferred keyboard for regular use?

Thanks

From the FAQ:

28. I can't save my customizations - AutoText, menus, etc.
Can't save normal.dot...
If you have Adobe Acrobat 7 installed see the last section of
http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adobe_acrobat_toolbar.htm.
Otherwise, hold down the Shift key when selecting the File
menu and select Save All.
