Thank you for your hard work, your answer didn't quite solve the problem
but
it pointed the way to a resolution.
Actually, I was trying to print key assignments from Normal.dotm. What I
had done originally was created a new Normal.dotm in 2007, then imported
the
NewMacros.bas file from my old 2003 Normal.dot and reassigned all the
shortcut keys in Normal.dotm. I also created one new macro in 2007 but
had
the same printing key assignment issue. After reading your response, I
tried
creating a new macro with shortcut key, but saving it to a new .docm file
instead of Normal.dotm, and it printed key assignment properly. So
obviously
the problem was with my Normal.dotm and that imported .bas file.
So, first I removed all the macros from my Normal.dotm, and resaved it
specifying save as 2007 format. Then I reimported the 2003 .bas file and
recompiled. Then I recreated each macro with a shortcut key by cutting
the
old macro, typing the Sub MacroName() and pasting in the code from the old
macro, and recompiled Normal.dotm. Then (still in Normal.dotm) I went to
Word Options: Customize: Customize Keyboard and reassigned each macro
shortcut key. After that, I could print the key assignments just fine.
It was a bit odd, especially because I had already reassigned all the
shortcut keys when I originally imported the .bas file, and they were
working
properly, but recreating them and reassigning the shortcut keys did the
trick
to enable printing.
Thanks, Beth, and thanks to anyone else who may have spent time pondering
this strange little issue.

I'm not encountering the same thing. If I assign a keyboard shortcut to a
macro and print the Key Assignments I get the key board shortcut along
with
the macro name in the Template.Module.MacroName format.
I've tried this with macros in Normal.dotm, and a Word document and the
results were the same.
Ah! Hold that thought. I DO encounter the behavior you describe if the
macros are stored in document/template saved in the Word 97-2003 format.
I'd
say you found a bug. If you convert your *.doc to a *.dotm or *.docm
(click
the Microsoft Office Button and then click Convert) then they'll print
correctly. Note that if you need to retain the Word 97-2003 format then
convert a copy of the file just in case.
Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for

Am I missing something? Or is this a bug? When I print my Key
Assignments
in Word 2007, the list does not include any macro names. It either
just
lists the shortcut key with no other info, or it lists "Macro recorded
[date]
by [name]" when it was a recorded macro as opposed to a written macro.
So
I
can't tell what macro the shortcut key is used for, which is the whole
point
of printing the key assignments in the first place. By contrast, when
I
used
a key assignment to apply a style or to reassign a command shortcut, it
does
list that info. It is only macros that lack any further info. Anyone
experiencing the same thing? FYI, I am testing Office 2007 for
deployment
in
my company, so I am the only one using it here. Thanks in advance for
any
insight you can offer.
