Microsoft Office 2007 Applications such as Word and Excel last action can be repeated using F4 Key. For example if you have formatted a Word with specific style and you want to repeat/apply the same format for other words then you can press F4. This can be used for copying drawings or formatting excel cells etc.

Hello, what if I already assigned Cut, Copy, Paste to F2, F3, & F4… how do I get Repeat Last Action back? I want to assign it to F5 which is where I had it in Word 2003, but I cannot find the command to reassign it in Word 2007. I DID find the Redo or Repeat (last action) icon and was able to place that in my Quick Access Toolbar, but I find pressing F5 to be much faster than going to the toolbar each and every time I need to repeat the last action (which by the way, is a lot…) Thanks for the help.

Kevin,

F5 can be assigned Redo or Repeat last action using Word Options -> Cutomize menu.

The command name is EditRedoorRepeat, remove the shortcut that is already assigned and assign F5 as shortcut.
