MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

The Word speed formatting keys used to activate a feature such as underline formatting (CTRL+U) cannot be used if a macro key combination begins with the same key (for example, CTRL+UR).

Example
If a macro is assigned a CTRL+LZ key combination, the speed key for left justification (CTRL+L) will not left justify; however, if you press the speed key twice (for example, CTRL+LL), the selected text will left justify.

If a macro is assigned CTRL+LL as a speed key combination, you can’t use the speed key for left justification. In this case, the CTRL+LL macro key combination will supersede the speed key.

= MORE INFORMATION =

Key combinations assigned to macros will also override any style sheet key codes that use the same letters.
