Macros in Microsoft Word?

I have a basic understanding of macros and how to use them, i can change colour, fonts, sizes etc by highlighting the text and using a keyboard shortcut button. What i need to be able to do is have an automatic running macro and i want it to take any and all text that i place in between two *. *text to be altered here* and have it change to a specific font on its own. is this possible and how can i do this?Macros in Microsoft Word?
autohotkey is a free macro scripting and has a great and speedy support forum

Try getting a usb keyboard from one of your friends and check if the problem persists. If it does you'll probably have to reinstall your operating system. If it dosn't.. hey its time to change your keyboard.. :)

You can try starting in Safe Mode. When your computer is booting up and it starts listing the Windows Registry (or whatever its called) start tapping F8 repeatedly. In Safe Mode, you should be able to navigate your PC and change the settings back to normal. If you can't change the settings back, then run a System Restore from Safe Mode. It will take your computer back to the way it was last week. Just click the Start Button/ All Programs/ Accessories/ System Tools/ System Restore. I have done it a few times with my computer, and sometimes I had to wait a minute or more after clicking it for it to appear. Or, I'd click a button and have to wait a minute. So be patient.



Sometimes I use the keyboard instead of the mouse to navigate. You can click the Windows button between Ctrl and Alt on the left side, and the menu will pop up. Then, you use the arrow keys to navigate the menu and click Enter on the program you choose. You can use the arrow keys instead of the scroll bar. Also, you can get to Control Panel using the above mentioned method. Then, use the Arrow Keys at the Control Panel to go from icon to icon, and click Enter on the program you choose. I only know a few shortcuts that I use when browsing the web: HomePage (Alt+M), Address Bar (Alt+D), and Favorites Folder (Alt+C). F5 = Refresh. Alt+F4 = Close Program. When you are at a program, you can click Alt+F instead of clicking File, or Alt+E instead of clicking Edit, or Alt+T instead of clicking Tools. Then, you use the arrow keys to choose what you want. If you wanted to print a document on Windows IE web browser, just click Alt+F for File, then the arrow keys down to Print, then Enter. You never have to touch your mouse.COMPUTER FONT IS TOO BIG I NEED HELP?
Just go to the computer properties and you should be able to find it.
Right click on the desktop and click properties. Then there is a option, i think it's appearance or something like that and you can change the settings. Thats for Windows XP. It's simple thing to fix. I think you can restore to default
System Restore. Go back to the most recent restore point.



I can't find where you were. The only options I see are for 200% being the highest setting.

Opera 9 speed dial set as homepage?

Hi, this relates to a question i asked before, i would like to know how i can change the homepage button on the opera 9 toolbar so that when i click on it the speed dial tab opens up, i have managed to get this to work via the keyboard shortcuts but cant seem to get it to work using the homepage button, any ideas please.

PeteOpera 9 speed dial set as homepage?
i'm glad i was successfully able to help you with the mapping of homepage shortcuts ctrl + space and alt+ home to open speed dial! in your earlier question. I'm sorry i didn't mention about homepage button stuff...guess it just slipped my mind at the time. Well no worries, because i'm gonna solve your problem totally right now.



Well, there is no way you can change the existing homepage button on the toolbar of Opera to open speed dial . BUT surely you can drag a homepage button onto your toolbar which when clicked opens the speed dial.



First of all remove that homepage button from your toolbar (right click -%26gt; remove from toolbar)



Now, go here http://www.xs4all.nl/~vangeijt/opera/dnd and scroll down a li'l bit till you see 'Speed dial buttons'



Now all you got to do is drag the button 'speed dial' -- (open Speed Dial in the current tab, ';Homepage'; icon) to your toolbar . It'll ask you whether you want to proceed, Hit yes!



Voila! you got the homepage button onto the toolbar which when clicked opens speed dial in the current tab!



If you want the tile icon which performs the same function , then drag the other speed dial button (open Speed Dial in the current tab, ';Tile'; icon) onto your toolbar.



that's it!Opera 9 speed dial set as homepage?
Speed dial is excellent.You can use 9 homepages in one page.But if you don't like try:tools and after that Preferences and then set your hompage.

Hope you find your answer
Start Opera. Open a new blank tab so that speed dial appears. Go to 'tools -%26gt; preferences'. Where it says 'Homepage' click 'select current'.

How do I change the overall default media player in Windows?

I have a Microsoft Digital Media Pro keyboard with a bunch of buttons along the top for shortcuts. I just recently formatted and reloaded windows, due to some driver issues. Before the format, when I pressed the Play/Pause button and no media player was open, Winamp would open and start playing. Now, after the format, when I press the button, Windows Media Player opens. If I already have Winamp open, the buttons control it properly, and everything is peachy. But usually the first thing I do after my computer boots up is to hit the play button to launch my music. In the keyboard settings, I can choose different settings for that key, but it is already set to the correct one. I just want it to launch Winamp if there is no media player open, and work as it currently does after Winamp is launched. I checked Set Program Access and Defaults, but I can only choose WMP or Zune as the default media player, which are both garbage IMO.How do I change the overall default media player in Windows?
I think there is a thing in control panel that says Default Programs, it might be in there or go to Autoplay and change the default for each multimedia item.

Windows 3.1 - I've accidentally changed my video setting to something wrong. How would I fix it?

So I was playing around in Windows 3.1, video (monitor) was working. I decided to change it from VGA to ';VGA 1MB 1024x768'; in the Windows 3.1 Setup application (I found it under the ';Main'; program group in the Program Manager. Now, these horrible vertical pink bars shoot up and down my monitor across the whole thing, alternating on and off. I am sure I picked an unsupported video driver for my card... Now, here's my question: How would I change it back to the default VGA? Is there a list of keyboard shortcuts I can use (since I can't see Windows at all)? Please, PLEASE, PLEEEASE someone help me out!



P.S. I don't want to re-install Windows 3.1 on that machine, I just finished installing MS Word 6, MS Powepoint 4, VB 3.0, VC++, and my sound card...

PLEASE HELP MEEE I'M ULTIMATELY DESPERATE! :'-(Windows 3.1 - I've accidentally changed my video setting to something wrong. How would I fix it?
Can you boot Windows 3.1 into safe mode? That may be a way into the system where you can change it back because safe mode generally loads the generic type of drivers.
