Windows 10: Creating ALT key Macro combos - Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard 4000

Hello MS Community,


I like that the MS Ergonomic 4000 keyboard has a macro editor.

My confusion is with the "ALT" key and creating combos with it being "pressed".

Is this an actual option for macro editting?

I wanted to exit a module on a program I use by using the keystroke "ALT+O" (directs to OK button) then "Enter" to close out the module.



Can someone tell me if the ALT pressed (+any letter) works under the creating macros menu?


thanks in advance


Ken

How to assign Macros for Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard

Has anyone heard if Microsoft have updated software to be able to map keys to text input macros?

Many users of assistive input tech. require these functions to overcome disabilities and repetitive strain injury. Have we made any progress? The old natural keyboard (with keyboard centre software) used to have much better functionality in this respect. Have
we just gone a step backwards or am I missing a trick?

With hope,

Marc

Creating macros


I know macros are rarely used anymore, but I want to use macro to record and replay email address that I',m sick of typing. So, using small program named TINY TASK, I create the macro but don't know how to assign it to a key on keyboard (generic, as I just spilled coffee in my Microsoft Ergonomic 4000). TINY TASK records the macro, but then how do I make it play back in a form? It defeats the purpose of time saving if If I have to open Tiny Task again to play back the macro. Need to assign to a function key or hot key.
