Ctrl+0.
Type the first letter of your variable.
Arrow down, if necessary.
Press Enter.

Smile that entering a variable is really quite easy.

Subject: Keyboard shortcut control for inserting a variable?

All,

 

The name of the application for which I am currently developing a manual is
a hideous mix of upper and  lower case letters and numbers. (Marketing
really outdid themselves on this one.) Obviously, it's a PITA to type this
creature every time I need to use it , so I set it up as a variable and have
been inserting it when needed. Of course, the Special > Variable  option
requires me to scroll through a list of variables to find the one that I
want and that's not that efficient either.

 

Deep in the fuzzy recesses of my  mind,  I remember something about a nifty
little keyboard shortcut to use to insert a variable (compliments of Fred
Ridder or John Posada or Richard Combs - one of you FM gurus out there!) I
remember something about the list appearing in the bottom tray of the FM
window and you used this keyboard command to scroll through the list
onscreen and select the one that you want - does this even sound close or
right to what I remember?

 

Anyway, if y'all have the answer, it would be much appreciated.
