Well, I'm sorry, but ... 1) The Alt-X functionality you describe has never been present by default in any version of Word that I've used. I've used many, probably most, versions of Word from somewhere around v2 or 3 for DOS up to 2000, which latter I've just checked on this PC, nothing happens. 2) "Alt-X" on its own is a little ambiguous, so never having heard of or encountered any other <Alt> key functionality other than the one that has been the predominant subject of discussion in this thread, in particular not the functionality you claim, I naturally presumed you were talking about the <Alt> key functionality that everyone else here was discussing. However, that aside, perhaps there is some configuration setting in Word that turns it on, which you forgot to mention? Having said that, I've checked in Word2000, and can't find anything that appears relevant.
