EGG ON FACE NOTE TO EMDASH.DOC MACROS:

Yes. I uploaded these "simple" macros and left one out of the template
attached to EmDash.Doc.

If you have already tried to install the keyboard macro which reassigns the
minus key on your keypad to an em dash (Chr$ 151) and received an error 
message this new EmDash.doc will fix things.

The error was a "Macro Not Found" message because "MyAuntEm" macro was not 
included in the template. It's there now, but it's been renamed to
"AuntEm" (this is because of some mysterious problems when trying to
correct things after the aborted install--had I included that macro in
the first place, all would be well).

The install macro looks at your AutoExec macro and if it finds the line
to call AuntEm it will report that the macro has already been installed 
(and so it won't add that line twice). This only means, it's been installed 
in your AutoExec macro.  If you tried and failed to install this before, that line 
will probably be present. Delete that line (Tools, Macro, Global button,
"AutoExec" macroname, Edit button).

Note: There is a bug in the ToolsOptionsKeyboard command which makes
it difficult to delete the assigned key, once its been assigned.
A one line macro like:
        ToolsOptionsKeyboard "MyAuntEm", 109 .Delete
only works if it is run TWICE. [Another mystery solved due to the
"Hackers Guide to Word for Windows."]  If you still have a problem that this
may solve, try it. (There were times when I had to run install TWICE
to get it to "stick".)

My apologies. Yes, you can learn from my bad example, one beginner to another.
