Assign shortcut to an existing macro in MS Word Pro 2003 - How to?

R

Richard Lionheart

Hi All,

I think I've had a brain seizure :)

Microsoft Office Assistant under the topic "Run a Macro" at
Assistance > Project 2003 > Programmability > Using Macros
in the paragraph Set up a macro to run from a shortcut key says:

a.. If necessary, open the project that contains the macro.
I didn't open anything since I've already got my Word document open.
a.. On the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Macros.
Did that! The "Macros" dialog opened.
a.. Select the macro you want to assign to a shortcut key from the Macro
name list.
Did that!
a.. Click Options.
There is no Options menu item of button to click. What's up?

TIA,
Richard

P.S. In case it helps, here's the background for my problem:

I've got a couple of shortcuts I've assigned to previous bookmarks, e.g.
Ctrl-F12 takes me to a place in my Word doc to which I previously assigned a
particular bookmark.

I just created a new bookmark and then created a new macro intending to be
able to assign a shortcut to the macro and have the macro invoke the new
bookmark. I populated the macro with code copied from one of its sister
macros that does the same kind of thing and modified it to point to the
newly added bookmark.

The new macro works fine if I click Tools | Macro | Macros, select the name
of the new macro and click Run.
