How do I disable an Office shortcut key?

L

I want to disable or reassign the Open Research Pane function which is set as
Alt+click for all Office applications. Because it is an Office-wide
function, the shortcut does not appear in the customization dialog for
individual programs -- I can add another shortcut for it but I can't get rid
of Alt+click. This is a problem for me because it is overriding the key
assignment in another program. I never, ever use this shortcut in Office and
I use this particular one for my other program all the time.

The documentation for the Group Policy Editor has links to shortcuts for the
different applications but nothing about the Office-wide shortcuts. Even if
it did though, the whole group policy idea seems like overkill for my
purposes. I have no idea how to even get started and most of the article is
unintelligible to me.

Is there a registry key that I can add/change to disable this one shortcut
in Office 2007?
