A pity you didn't ask for help before you struggled!

o Set one word or whatever to small caps.
o Select that word.
o Go to Format | Styles and Formatting (or click the Styles and 
Formatting button in the Formatting toolbar, or press F11).
o Click the Character Styles button in the Styles and Formatting window.
o Click the down-arrow at the right and select "New Style from Selection".
o Name your new character style.
o Leave the Styles and Formatting window open.
o Either: select text as needed and then double-click the name of 
your style in the window,
o Or: click the Fill Format Mode button and then click required words 
or drag over required text.  (To terminate Fill Format Mode, either 
click the button again or press Esc.)

Oh, and once you have created such a character style, you *can* 
ascribe to it a keyboard shortcut if you prefer - which is exactly 
what you ask for.  Right at the bottom of the Category list you will 
see Styles.  Expand that and select Character and you will see your 
new style in the Function list.

I trust this helps.
