Making A Micro

I was wondering it was possible to create a Micro in Vista Ultimate (running
w/Office 2007 if it means anything) so that with a keystroke it would enter
my email address>

You mean a Macro?

In Microsoft Word 2007 (or Excel 2007), click the "Developer" tab on
the Ribbon, then click "Record Macro".

If you don't see the "Developer" tab on the Ribbon, click the
application orb, then "Options". Make sure there is a checkmark in the
"Show Developer tab in the Ribbon", then click OK.

Ok...but I was serious though... thought I missed something. Anyway...how
to create a macro is a long story, particularly when you haven't said where.
In Excel? in an application program? or someplace else? Let us know and we
might be able to point you to a help page. If it's in Excel, the Excel help
feature has a pretty good section and there are some good books on the
market.

I want to be able to insert it where needed, either on the Web or in Windows
if possible.

You might want to be looking at CGI or Script Writing or even Batching.
Sorry to ask for more details but just trying to answer your question. What
is it that you are trying to do? When you say "running w/Office 2007" and
now you ask about "Web or in Windows", I don't equate the two.

In the first post I said"(running w/Office 2007 if it means anything)"
I want to be able to hit a key or keys and have it insert my email address
both within windows and also on the internet. I am in the process of
changing my email address on many sites and it would really help to be able
to do this.
Does that explain it better?
Thanks

Not since Windows 3.x has there been the facility to globally record
macros that are universal to all applications. Even then, the feature
was so prone to errors and inconsistencies, that very few people used
it, and was thus dropped altogether from the Windows 95 featureset, and
has never been re-introduced.

Your only other alternative is to learn how to use "Windows Script
Host" (a command-line utility included with windows - CSCRIPT.EXE).
Additional information about Windows Scripting, and sample downloads,
can be found on the MSDN website - 'Scripting'
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms950396.aspx)

But seriously, is it worth going through that much trouble just to
enter an e-mail address when it's likely easier (and quicker) to just
simply type out the e-mail address whenever you need it?

Now I understand. Scripting can help but it's a little complex and
overkill. I have a similar need for account names, passwords, URL's, and
other "one liners". I just keep them on the postit notes. I used to just
keep them in a .txt file on my desktop and whenever I needed one, I'd open
the file, go down the list and cut/paste. Another trick is to create and
empty folder with the name you want on the desktop and copy/paste the name
when you need it. Other then scripting, I can't tell you how to create a
user definable hotkey. Good idea though.
