To
assign the macro to a toolbar button, choose Toolbars.
To assign the macro to a keyboard shortcut, choose Keyboard.
For the example we are using, we are assigning the macro to a
keyboard shortcut. That seems to be the preferred choice
for most users. The Customize Keyboard dialog box
appears as shown below.
On
your keyboard, press the shortcut key combination that you would
like to use. For example, Alt+P. Note that you are
pressing the actual shortcut on your keyboard, not typing out
the letters like you see in the graphic below. The
combination is automatically placed in the Press new shortcut
key box, and Word tells you whether or not that shortcut is
already assigned. If the shortcut is already in use, try
pressing a different combination. You can use any number
of combinations of Ctrl, Shift, and/or Alt with a letter or
number. If Alt+P was taken, I might have tried Alt+Shift+P.
Once
you have found a shortcut that is not assigned, the Assign
button becomes active. Choose Assign and Close.
After you choose Close, the recording of your macro
immediately begins.
The
Stop toolbar is displayed while you are recording, and
your mouse has a small cassette icon attached to it. This
lets you know that Word is recording every move and click of the
mouse you make until you choose the Stop Recording button
on the Stop toolbar. You can also choose the Pause
Recording button on the Stop toolbar if you need to
temporarily stop recording. Choose the Pause Recording
button again to continue.
