Estelita,
The Customize dialogue has three pages, and it sounds like you've come
in on the Toolbars page. Try pressing Ctrl + Tab to move to the Commands
page. This dialogue is unlike almost any other, in that Word remembers
the page you were last on even if you restart Word. So once you've moved
to the Commands page once, Word will remember for you.

Hi Vicki and Estelita,
Like you, I have a hard time trying to find a replacement word in Word
2003 Thesaurus. I find an alternative way to find replacement word
just
like the way we did it in Word XP (2002). The steps to do so is below:
1. Open Word 2003
2. Go to tools (Alt+T) and arrow down to customize and press enter
3. You will be in the Commands page. Arrow down to the category "all
commands"
4. Tab once. Quickly press the letters t o o to get to the beginning
of
the tools category
5. Page down until you find "tools thesaurus" Note: this is the one
you
want, not tools ThesaurusRR which is the one used for Word 2003
6. Tab to the keyboard button and press enter
7. You will be in the customize keyboard category. Arrow down to tools
and
tab once to "all commands"
8. Again quickly type the letters t o o to get to tools and page down
until you find tools thesaurus
9. Tab once and you should hear "current keys no selected item" .
10. Tab and enter new short-cut key. I have shift+F9 as my keys for
this
command
11. Tab to the close button and press enter. The change will be saved
in
normal.doc
You should be back at the tools thesaurus category where you
previously
press the keyboard button . Tab over to close and press enter.
Now you can press shift+F9 on a word in Word 2003 and you will have
the
familiar Thesaurus that we had in Office XP (2002)
Write me if you have any problems or questions. Since I have made this
change, I have not used Shift+F7 anymore even though that is still
available.

Does anyone know how to change a word while using the thesauruse in

words that I can find as there was in Word 2002. Thanks.
