Keyboard shortcut for highlighting

Post by jmt356 »

Can I assign a keyboard shortcut combination for highlighting selections in my Word document in the same way that I assigned alt + shift + Z as a shortcut to my zoom window?
Regards,

I notice that, in Word 2007, the built-in shortcut for highlighting selections isn't too cumbersome. It’s Alt-H-I (and enter).

It’s always a little risky assigning new keystrokes, because Word has so many of them already assigned to a function, and that function loses its keystroke when you assign it to some other task. For instance, Alt-Shift-H selects the Home tab, in 2007.
