Entourage seems to be so keyboard shortcut deficient. No way, like PHotoshpo now has to assign my own? Any good app can help with this? thanks.

You can do this with System Preferences --> Keyboard & Mouse --> Keyboard
Shortcuts, or with a third party product like Keyboard Maestro.

Customize Entourage with Keyboard Maestro

Use System Preferences to set shortcuts:

Lastly, I tried with System preference, but I only think it can do a top level menu item like Tools, right? I don't see another field to even put tools, rules.

and with keyboard meastro tutorial, it seems they can one more deeper, it tools, rules, but can it hande, tools, link to exisiting, note? ie that far deep?

I don't know. I don't use the web forum.

No, the examples I gave were not top level.

KM is a bit easier to use than System Preferences and is more flexible. A
lot depends on learning how to use either process.

I don't understand the system pref. method. Are you going to make a shortcut for Tools?

And KM, have you used it? Will will it shortcut to Tools, Link To, Note?
