Still an office prank victim

[Scott C]

Somebody has reprogrammed all of my hot keys (ctrl+v, c,
u, b, i,etc.) to display really annoying pop-up messages.
Does anyone know how to fix this? One person said to try
entering the following into immediate window in Visual
Basic, but I got runtime error 1004 messages when i
tried.

Application.OnKey "^(C)", ""

Also, I feel like this would erase the hotkey, where I'm
trying to restore default.

Thanks

try it without the brackets:

Application.OnKey "^C", ""

This gets rid of the shortcut. Is there a way to restore
defaults?

 

[Scott C]

I set the key to the "" like it says below, then left out
the second part of the expression, which VB help says
should restore the default. The message still comes up,
which makes me think it's something else.

Go to Tools-Addins and see if there is anything suspicious there.

Turns out he edited my registry to open up a VBA project
that did it, but the project was password protected and
looked just like the three password projects my company
put in there. Tricky.

So, Now we know who did it.

 

[Dave Peterson]

Hmmmm. But it does sound like a nice idea!
