 When you are customizing your keyboard, and "Press a new Keyboard Shortcut", it will tell you if the shortcut you have input has already been assigned to another command. If it has, you can either leave it as is, and choose another key combination, or you can Assign it to the command. If you do this, you may need to navigate to the Command which it was already assigned to, and remove the keyboard shortcut from this command (this depends on your version of Word - some will automatically remove it from the original command when you assign it to a new command). When you are customizing your keyboard, and "Press a new Keyboard Shortcut", it will tell you if the shortcut you have input has already been assigned to another command.

-If you want to assign a shortcut to a style in the NNELS Template, or to one that you have created, then you can access the dialog through the drop-down menu in the Modify Styles dialog box.

-Below is an example list of shortcuts. You may prefer different shortcuts. In Word for Mac, ''Command'' + ''Option'' + ''4/5/6/7/8/9/0'' may be unassigned, and therefore easy to apply. Shortcuts in regular font are built-in to word, while shortcuts in //italics// were created. This list is not inclusive of all of the styles from the NNELS Template; in my experience, the ones not included were not used frequently enough to warrant the creation of Keyboard Shortcuts, but you are of course encouraged to create them for any Style, Function, or Command that you want.
