looking for a list of shortcut letters that are not already assigned by MS Word or Excel

Post by Beaujolais44 » 22 Apr 2024, 05:47

Hi, I am new here.

I have written two scripts using CTRL Q and CTRL U and they work fine, but I cannot find another letter that isn't already assigned to something.

So, I am looking for a list of Shortcut letters that are not already assigned by MS Word or Excel.

Any help will be appreciated.
Roger

Welcome to the AHK forums!

Seems futile, I would rather look into context-sensitive/window-specific hotkeys:

(imo, if I don't know or already use a specific Excel or Word shortcut, there seems no harm in overwriting them by AHK).

I use alt+shift+... For most of mine. They are mostly available.
