Yes, you have to use Tools >Customise. If your macro is contained in a library document, you may not be able to see it there. I filed an issue about that soon after version 2.0.0 was release because, IIRC, you could see document macros there in 1.1.5. If I'm not mistaken, you could also get the keyboard tab via the macros organiser in 1.1.5. In any case, you will have to add your macro/s to a user library. You can use Standard or create a new library using the organiser. I have several macros on module 2 of Standard. Create a new module by right-clicking the existing module tab, then Insert >Basic module. In the Customise dialogue, expand the category "OOo Macros" then the sub-category "user". You will find your chosen library listed there. Expand it and you find the modules listed. Select one and you see the macros listed in the "Function" panel. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Assign-shortcut-key-to-macro-tf3381763.html#a9414822 Sent from the openoffice - users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
