Can this be used to insert the current time and date in office apps?

Seemed like a great program, but couldn’t get it to insert signature text into an email (my main reason for using it), so had to uninstall. Seemed to invoke some kind of search/replace function instead. Email=Outlook2003

I could do some complicated stuff with this prog. BUT couldnt get it to open a simple folder. tht is a folder with some shorcuts to programmes in it. Tried all sorts of things. It would throw up the Coloured text so that it seemed it was going to work but then it didnt. In the end i uninstalled the app

There is a way to get to the Shut Down Windows dialog by keyboard only. Press Win+D then follow it right up with Alt+F4. Provided you haven’t disabled Win+D, it minimizes all windows and shifts focus to the desktop.

This is a good key combination to know when the system is running, but the display is blank or unreadable. Shutting down blind seems to be a speciality of mine.

Downloading and installing now

But will this app let me turn that annoying calculator shortcut button at the top of my keyboard into something else? Maybe to open my media player?

If you know of an app, or anyone knows please email me.
Or comment here XD

Now this is something I could use. I really like that it can turn off the windows help key.
