Default F12 does not bring up Save As in Word 2003

When I hit F12 in word, a box pops up saying no fuction assigned to this
button. When I tried to go under the Tools menu, then Customize, there is a
Keyboard button. In there, there's a reset button to restore them all to
defaults, but it is grayed out like I'm already set to the defaults.

Does that mean something else is overriding my Function keys and Word is ok?

Seems easier and more efficient to make a toolbar button to do Save As.

TOOLSCUSTOMIZECommand Tab, and scroll down the File selectins to Save As.
Hold the ALT Key and drag Save As to the location on the tool bar that suits
you.

Having said that, F12 is kinda cool. I never used that before.

What's the current key for "FileSaveAs" command in the "Customize Keyboard"?
Does the F12 work before?

Please rename the normal.dot file, and launch the word again, see if the
issue still appears. You can refer to the renaming steps in the KB 826862
