Hi :)
Just out of curiosity 
1.  could the <Ctrl><Alt>F key be re-assigned to jump into the toolbar?  Swapping the defaults 
around might be good as a feature-request for the longer-term too.  
2.  does anyone know which sub-folder in the config those key settings are stored?  Could it be 
copied to a network folder that everyone could copy to their system (or carry the folder on 
usb-stick or is there a more sophisticated way of pushing out configurations like this?
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi William,

The assignment of the key to bring up search and replace.

Basically they hate the change.

Now instead of a<CTRL>F they have to hit<CTRL><ALT>F instead, and
while from my background as a programmer that seems a trivial change, I
have had over 70 complaints about this in the last week alone (and 13
more today). Secretaries, admin. assistants, and managers DON'T like
change.

<Ctrl>F now sets the Cursor into the input-field of the toolbar Find. 
The setting is for all LibO not only for Writer.


So I have gone through the documentation and tried the various
"options" available, but I don't see any way to give them what they
want (<CTRL>F = find/search and replace), without editing the code,
changing it there, and recompiling it myself.  I have to find a
solution soon as one of the complaints is from a 'management' type who
is 4 levels higher than I am.  He says to have it for him on Monday
(PERIOD).

Is there a simpler solution? (replacing the users is NOT an option,
however desirable...)

You can assign <Ctrl>F to "find&replace" via dialog "Customize" as it 
has been since the beginning. But this will hide the feature of setting 
the cursor into the input field of the toolbar Find.

Kind regards
Regina
