for all programs, I want a keyboard shortcut for the Greek letter delta.

I use a variety of text programs... Word. OpenOffice; CaseMap; electronic mail; and others. I want to be able to type alt + something (for example) to create a symbol - like Greek letters pi delta. It just seems to me that he needs to (or should) be a relatively simple way to do this... rather than having to go into a table "Insert symbol".   I run Vista.

Thank you

The above should help you by using the Alt key + xxxx.

See you soon.

  • Shortcuts to programs, EXE files does not open (you will be asked which program I want to use to open the file)

    My system has developed a strange (and annoying) issue that no longer allows me to double click on the shortcuts of programs or EXE files.  When I do, I give myself a menu asks me what program I want to use to open the file, as if I was trying to open a file with an extension that is not associated with.

    The only way to get all the programs to run more is to right click on the shortcut and select "Run as Administrator".

    Right click on the shortcut also reveals a new 'momentum' (Yes, spelled with one S tiny) option in the menu.  I have not tried it works, in my view, it could be related to some false recently-removed security software that appeared out of nowhere last night.

    Any help to remedy this situation and get back to normal functionality would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

    If program shortcuts are not no longer works, you will need to use a procedure special difficulty fo files .lnk (similar to the one used above with .exe files).

    Go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/ and select the .lnk and run it.  That should fix your shortcuts.  Or you can use the link provided above by Michael Murphy - it does essentially the same thing.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • All programs have an extension .lnk instead of the extension which actually would allow me to open the program itself.

    Original title: Start Menu, all programs

    I don't know how but my Start menu, all programs have an extension .lnk instead of the extension which actually would allow me to open the program itself.  Don't know how it happened but I have been looking for a solution for more than a year now, and I'm not about to find an answer.  Don't know what to short to bring it to Best Buy and watch it with a geek.  Can someone point me in the right direction and tell me how to get the menu start original, all programs back to the way they should be?  Thank you

  • I want a keyboard shortcut for "home". Where is this shortcut key for 'home '?

    See, so far I understand that there is no function of customizable shortcut for Firefox.

    But you couldn't just add a shortcut of the button "home"? CTRL + Space for example. Then one could easily spend for example access to their favorite search engine.

    CTRL + K or CTRL + E

  • Why all my keyboard shortcuts use the 'Alt' key instead of the ' CTRL '? I use Windows 7 and Firefox 5.0.1.

    I recently downloaded Firefox 5 and noticed that all my keyboard shortcuts by default using the 'Alt' key instead of the 'Ctrl' key (so, for example, open a new tab is Alt + T instead of Ctrl + T).

    I noticed that this applies even to copy and paste in Firefox (Alt + C and Alt + P is the only commands that work).

    No idea why this is happening? I am running Windows 7 and Firefox 5.0.1.

    I had this problem. I found that a roaming profile directory has been installed which contained a user.js file in which changed the hotkey of CTRL ALT.
    I deleted the profile folder a name randomly in c:/Users / [myuser] / AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles and then I stuck to that of c:/Users / [myuser] / AppData/Local/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles.

    This bad user.js file was some other parameters, including the definition of the user agent string
    "Mozilla/5.0 (X 11;" U; Linux i686; en-US; RV:1.0.0; (Salut, maman) gecko/20020604 "

    The user.js file is (or similar to) those listed here: https://www-archive.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.html

  • I can't open anything without: "choose which program you want to use to open the file with" and "Application not found".

    I got a used computer and it worked fine for a while. I guess that I did something for her, because now I had a problem with the opening just like files and almost all of the icons in the start menu. I found someone had mentioned this on another post, but it has not been answered and I have the same problem:

    This problem has not helped me with my problems to download iTunes correctly, that's why I set out to solve this problem in the first place. I also get a lot of it popping up every 10 minutes:

  • Lock screen keyboard shortcut disables the key 'l '?

    Whenever I have use the windows key + 'L' to lock the computer. He keeps the key 'L' of work or because of sticking to the bottom and fill the thing entered password with characters 'L '. (good points, but I guess they are 'L'). Even when you use the keyboard on screen, the 'L' key does not work but each another key and I have even done a macro of 'L' key, but it does not work. Would probably not be a problem but my password contained an 'L' and by the looks of things, it would disable the L key regardless of whether I could sign it or not. Whenever I just restarted the computer which is quite annoying because I often use the locking function via the shortcut of privacy when I leave my PC, and I don't want to turn it back on it works when I pop off for 5 minutes or whatever.  I am quite puzzled here, especially since the keyboard of the screen and stuff on do not work. Is there by chance a way to put even a button to close or lock the pc on the home screen as a tile? Because it would be just as quick and easy to use keyboard shortcut

    I have a new SP6 installation on the new computer (Windows 7). Is it possible to move my old machine custom keyboard shortcuts?

    Photoshop CS6 (not 6.0) on both systems?  If so, here's an idea...

    On the old machine, save your workspace as a named workspace and make sure to include keyboard shortcuts.

    Find the file named in the following folder on the old machine and copy it to the same location on the new machine.

    \AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings\WorkSpacesyourusernameC:\Users\

    Then start Photoshop on the new machine.  The named workspace should be available for you allows to load.

  • Keyboard shortcut "Move the focus to the next window in the active application" system ignored

    Hello. Other than, for example, InDesign, Photoshop (12.0.2 x 64, Mac OS X 10.6.6 MacPro 4,1) seems to ignore the keyboard shortcut 'Move focus to the next window in the application active' systemic (in my case, and I think that generally, cmd - <). The key combination is not used by the set of keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop; in fact, Photoshop refuses to accept it as a shortcut, favourable to its use as a shortcut to System. But then why is inoperative in Photoshop and how to make it work?
