"I have used Macro Express and Shortkeys *every* day the last many years. I think it speeds up my work writing maybe 20% in efficency. Macro Express is great because it is a lot easier to make macros for MS Word in Macro Express than inside Word itself. I also save the macros outside Words templates, which sometimes disappear or otherwise get mixed up. Using Macro Express I have the macros available instantly and independantly of Office versions and installations. I also use Macro Express for my graphical work, since it enables me to have the *same* shortcuts for daily tasks like Close, Close All, Crop etc. in the different programs I use."
