All of a sudden I cannot remove documents from the Work pulldown menu.
Just as the Help file describes, this used to be a simple matter of
hitting Option/Command and the Minus Sign at which time the cursor
changed to a large Minus Sign itself. Then any document clicked on in
the Work menu would be taken off the list. Now, my Word 2004 on a new
Intel iMac G5 won't change the cursor at all, and therefore nothing
can be deleted from the Work menu. "Add to Work Menu", on the other
hand, functions fine.
Any idea what happened or a way to fix it?

Guys,

I thank you for your responses, but none of them have solved my
problem posted 8/21/07 of not being able to remove individual items
from my Work menu.

It turns out that Zoom had indeed been turned on in the Universal
Access pane and I understand that would have intercepted the Option/
Command/- keystroke combination. So I have turned it off.

Still cannot delete individual items from the Work menu. Option/
Command/- does not do anything now, much less give me the desired bold
minus sign.

I have disabled Universal Access from the Keyboards pane of System
Preferences.

Still can't remove specific items (or any items for that matter) from
the Work menu. And, yes, I have tried quitting Word and restarting my
Intel iMac G5.

Please understand,

We did.

I am not trying to remove the whole Work menu,

We know that.

which seems to have been the suggestion about
"ToolsCustomizeRemoveMenuShortcut" from CyberTaz.

No, it wasn't.

And if I am reading the suggestion from Clive Huggan correctly, he
seemed to have lost the command he was looking for.

Yes, but it was supplied by CyberTaz.

So does anyone else have any suggestions for removing specific items
from the Work menu?

You had it at that stage. But I wanted to ensure that what I had done
(because I had exactly the same experience as you, but had not documents it)
was reproducible. Then I was going to report to you and to others who, now
or in future, have the same problem. But I'm handicapped by being in the
southern hemisphere with a very different time zone; and your not reading
the other posts carefully enough, and perhaps having the patience of a newt,
are additional impediments. However, later in this thread I am posting the
full story.
