Are keyboard shortcuts in Word now limited for Vista users?
In MS Word, when you want to insert a symbol into your document (i.e. a fraction or accented letter) you can do so from a drop down menu. In the box that comes up, keyboard shortcuts are provided, usually Alt+numbers. The shortcuts are usable in other programs if you know what they are, however, it seems that the use of these keyboard shortcuts is no longer available in Windows Vista. Is there a way to change this?

3 AnswersOther - Science1 decade agoWhat makes the new Speedo suit for swimmers so great?
Okay for the last two nights I've watched the Olympic trials in swimming on the USA Network. Last night, for the first time, I really took notice of the suits the guys and girls were wearing. I don't see anything extra-ordinary about these new suits Speedo has made. They can't be ALL that fabulous if one of the guys last night broke a World Record and all he was wearing was the pants-like swim suit; nothing covering his chest.

7 AnswersCivic Participation1 decade agoWill anyone share the names of mixed (non-alcoholic) drinks they enjoy?
For instance, when I went to a neighbourhood theatre last Saturday to see "300", I arrived before the theatre technically opened so I hung out inside. While I waited, there were three college students preparing for the day's business. When one of the guys wanted a drink, he couldn't decide what to have so the other guy told him to get a 'Darth Vader' which is apparently a mixture of Dr. Pepper and root beer. Has anyone heard of that? Are there others?
