PPT97: Keyboard Shortcuts Don't Appear on Slide Popup Menu

ID: Q157620

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft PowerPoint 97 For Windows

SYMPTOMS

When you run a Slide Show in Microsoft PowerPoint 97, and click the pop-up menu button or right-click the slide, the menu that appears does not display the keyboard equivalents for the following commands:


   Command            Windows Shortcut
   -----------------------------------

   Pen                CTRL+P
   Arrow              CTRL+A

These keyboard commands work; they just don't appear on the menu.

CAUSE

In the Office 97 programs, the keyboard equivalents for menu commands do not appear on popup menus. For example, if you click the Edit menu in Word 97, the keyboard command CTRL+C appears next to the Copy command. If you right-click a drawn rectangle, the Copy command appears on the popup menu without the CTRL+C next to it.

This functionality is different from earlier versions of Office.
