I use the menu key and almost every keyboard shortcut I can find, all the time. Unfortunately some of the tasks in some of the software I use either can't be done without a mouse or it takes many times. For example, Word 2007 it's difficult to add words to custom spellchecking dictionaries. I work as a translator, and I keep a Custom dictionary for words that are always correct, such as names and titles; English.dic for English only, and Spanish.dic for Spanish only. In older versions this could all be done without a mouse, but not in Word 2007. Can you point me to the AutoHotKey mouse emulator? Steven
