Short commandas: bigger or smaller fonts

[hege]

I used to make my text bigger or smaller by using a short commando:
Ctrl-Alt-Y - and smaller by using Ctrl-Alt-Y

In the newest version of Word it is not possible to do it this way.
Irritating, because I am used to do it like that. How can I find a new short
commando for this?

I don't see how the same shortcut key could be used for both increasing and
reducing font size, but there are built-in command that will do this:

Ctrl+> = GrowFont
Ctrl+< = ShrinkFont
Ctrl+] = GrowFontOnePoint
Ctrl+[ = ShrinkFontOnePoint

The first pair change the font size based on the sizes listed in the Font
Size dropdown. The second pair increase/decrease the size by one point.
Sometimes these will do the same thing (in the case of 10, 11, 12 points,
for example), but a difference can be seen when using Ctrl+> and Ctrl+] on
12-point type. The former will increase it to 14-point, the latter to
13-point.
