Keyboard Shortcuts

Word 2003 shortcuts — Microsoft has released an interactive application to locate the Word 2003 commands in the new Word 2007 interface. The same application can be used to find back the usual Word 2003 keyboard shortcuts, since these still work in Word 2007.

Shortcut Description Custom
A-F9 Toggle view/hide field code
C-F9 Create a new field
C-S-e Toggle track changes mode
A-F11 Show Visual Basic
A-im Insert comment
A-inn Insert reference - footnote

Tips

  • Creating cross-references in Word (See [1])
  • When using bookmarks (as in tip above), better make the bookmarks visible (Menu ToolsViewShow Bookmarks).
    This will avoid to inadvertently insert text inside some predefined bookmarks (particularly relevant when cross-referecing the bookmark with field { REF } )

Fields and Switches

Fields

  • The Seq field ([2])
Field code Result
{ SEQ MySeq \# 000 \* MERGEFORMAT } 000
001
002
  • The = (formula) field
  • The Ref field
    • Example: { REF myBookmark \h } (\h indicates that cross-reference is also an hyper-link)

Field switches

  • The format (\*) field switch ([3])
  • The Numeric Picture (\#) field switch ([4])
    • Examples: { = 4 + 5 \# 00.00 } displays "09.00", { = 9 + 6 \# $### } displays "$ 15", { = 111053 + 111439 \# x## } displays "492", { = 1/8 \# 0.00x } displays "0.125".

Troubleshoot

  • Invalid character setting error when using the = (formula) field
This is due to incorrect regional setting, when both list separator and decimal separator are the same (see [5] and [6])
