Steven, there are a number of shareware products you can use to fill in forms easily -- they let you define custom keyboard shortcuts. Also, certain keyboards you can buy cheaply have programmable keys. Depending on your browser, you may also be able to get a Firefox plugin (or just native Firefox) to do what you want (assuming the form is on a web page). I guess to answer your question properly, I need to know what kind of software that these forms are in -- web page? Thanks Ruth!

For example, if I am filling out a form and I want to enter my name with just a Cntrl-G or something, is that possible? I have a form that I have to fill in several times a day, and while Cntrl-A, C and V are helpful, it would be even quicker if I could just hit Cntrl-whatever and have specific test go in. Any thoughts? is it possible in windows to set up shortcut keys to insert specific text into a data entry box?

'calc' for calculator 'charmap' for character map 'winword' for word 'excel' for excel 'notepad' for notepad 'control' for control-panel For other applications (or most used documents) I use small program, PStart. Assigned a shortcut to open that & then scrolls to find more applications - faster that using 'start' menu.
