Hi,
  I have this spreadsheet that has a single macro in it. On my main
machine the macro is assigned to Ctrl-Shift-A and functions correctly.
However when I copied the spreadsheet over to my laptop the macro
doesn't work. The macro is in the spreadsheet but the key assignment
doesn't do anything.

Questions:

1) Does the key assignment have to redone for every machine the
spreadsheet is copied to or have I done something wrong in the way I
assigned it on the first machine?
I need to check, but usually, a key assignment is specific to the machine on which it is made (meaning I do not remember if you can assign a key for a specific document). You should know how the key is assigned when you make the assignment.
2) I'm not finding any instructions in the help system on the right
way to assign a keyboard combination to a macro. I did this once a
long time ago but am sort of lost. what is the right way to assign a
key combination so that it works on any machine I put the spreadsheet
on?
I discussed this somewhat in the getting started guide for the macro chapter.

See Chapter 17 of the getting started guide.

I make a quick reference to the correct chapter for this. I do not remember which chapter this is (it might be in the appendix) but I do reference it. The trick is that while assigning keys, macros are shown in the lower left corner, you must scroll all the way to the bottom if I remember correctly. Take a look and post back if you do not find what you need.

thanks,
Mark
