I never used Control D, always used the Delete key, so had no idea in the world that it served any purpose except Delete.

Do you mean a document list, containing all your Word documents? There was an old DOS command, a variation of the DIR" command but I haven't used it in years. I think it was dir > filename.

Cc: Carolyn Arnold Subject: RE: Just switched to WORD 2013, any more hot keys suggestions? Peter, here are some I have in a document file. I still hope we can find out how to get a document directory from a word document. In Microsoft Word, for count, like Word Count, line count, etc, hit Alt T, W, then arrow up for information. For font, hit Alt H, f, N For Mailing, Alt M, E for envelopes and Alt M L for labeling. For margins, hit Alt P, M, A. For tabs, Alt O, T. For word definitions: Shift F7, then F6. It will tell you to put in your word. Then tab to Thesarus English US. Enter, tab until you start getting the definitions. This one is a little tricky and requires maneuvering, but is worth it to find out what stuff means.

Thanks Ann, I'm making headwaywith WORD 2013. Your suggestion to get to save-as by using the old: alt+F then a only gets me to the save-as tab. Inow know that I have to select a button for the folder and that brings up the edit box. The F12 gets me directly into the edit box where I can type thepath/fileName. I still don't know how to open a file from inside WORD. The ctrl+o gets me the open tab. Only recent documents are shown. I need an edit box to type the path/file so I can open a text file from within WORD. Existing WORD files can be opened by selecting them from the directory tree. The large WORD hot keys file is a problem, maybe the "protected view". I used F12 to save it as a RTF and text file. It will take time to go through it. Thanks again.
