I am the author of said FKEY and after I receive both a copy of Inside
Mac VI and System 7 (both are ordered) I will see whether I can find
out what's wrong with the key, but I surely won't spend lots of time
doing that. 

flame on

Microsoft Word 4.0 has been upgraded at least 4 times
since lot's of us voiced their disappointment with this missing
feature (which I would call a bug). Microsoft didn't care enough to
include it and it would probably take only half an hour to include it.
I wrote this FKEY within one day and it was my first FKEY and I had to
figure out the picComments (that can be obtained from Prescience free
of charge).

flame off

I suggest you switch to Nisus and tell Microsoft about it.
