Treasure: Hi everybody! In case you don't recognise me, this is the (possibly blurred) avatar I used during October-November, and I won't try to change it until I'm certain the avatar issue has been fixed.
On an unrelated note, do you happen to know how I can
completely deactivate the keyboard shortcuts on Word 2007?
I'm trying to write a paper and I'm taking notes on the pc but when I try to write stuff in English (mostly to remember the English version of a word I'm going to write in Greek on the paper-this paper uses quite some English bibliography), Word does random stuff that occasionally screw up whatever I was trying to do and cause Word to do a "Not Responding" session (I have quite a lot of those, as Word 2007 is too heavy/bloated for my pc, but I still haven't found a lightweight word processor good for writing university papers...). As an example, I was trying to write the word string (abbots) -the way I just wrote it- and after changing language from Greek (shift-alt) and writing the abb part, the abb part not only didn't register but also Word went to its start menu then said "Publishing TitleofPaper.xps" (I haven't named my paper thusly, but it's name doesn't matter in this context) and then went to not responding. A while later, it stopped this s*** and went back to normal. This might seem like a minor problem (especially as it mostly just changes to another tab-this occurence I just mentioned was just the one that drove me to the point of asking for help) but I have at least 10 occurences of this stuff per hour and it has started driving me mad! I tried to search the issue on Google but haven't managed to find anything so I thought you people might know something.
tl;dr What I said in the 2nd sentence aka: How can I
completely deactivate the keyboard shortcuts on Word 2007?
these days. Not sure if it's any more light weight though...
There's nothing more annoying then random things happening when you're trying to do something.
