This ability is built into Mac OS X. System Preferences > Keyboard &
Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts. You can modify / create keyboard shortcuts
for any application. It might not work for Entourage (because it's kind
of a weird program) but that's the first thing I'd try. m.

It works for _most_ menu items in Entourage and for most submenu items that
are not more than one level deep. Occasionally you hit a menu item for which
it doesn't work - I don't know why not. Make sure to avoid shortcuts that
are already taken in Entourage or by the system.

PLEASE always state which version of Microsoft Office you are using -
**2004**, X or 2001. It's often impossible to answer your questions
otherwise.

But if you *do* happen to use such a shortcut, yours will take
precedence. That's probably good. m.
