    Can you setup a Mapkey (keyboard shortcut) to set your View to Default
    Mode? How is this accomplished? I'm going to Tools – Customize –
    Keyboard…but I see no Default View?

    Can you use your Function OR Number keys for Keyboard Shortcuts?

    I'm trying to create shortcuts to cut down on the time I'm trying to
    search for a menu pick. So if any of you have any advice or know of a
    good website that offers tips and tricks as to what I am trying to do,
    it would be very appreciated!

    Thanks!

    Hey Art,
    If by default you mean fit-to-screen than yes.

    RMB on an empty part of the tool bar and go to custimize. On the Keyboard
    tab look for View in the left pane and Zoom to Fit in the right pane, and
    assian a hot key to it.

    HTH,

  3. Maybe I'm missing something, but what is Default View? Ctrl-1, through
    Ctrl-8 are hotkeys to the various std views.
    I can send you a listing of all the keyboard shortcuts, lots of shortcut
    macros, and my .CUS file that includes the ties into them. Let me know if
    that's what you want to do.

    Art,

    Take my advice and accept Wayne's offer of the shortcut macro. What used to
    be a nice addition is now a "MUST".
