Here are quite a few keyboard shortcuts. They are specially useful to those of us that are ‘mouse challenged’ 
Ctrl B, Ctrl I, or Ctrl U apply bold, italics, or underline to highlighted text, respectively.
Ctrl P prints whatever is in an active window.
Ctrl Backspace erases an entire word at a time, instead of a letter. Ctrl up or down arrows let you scroll an entire paragraph at a time, instead of one line, and Ctrl Shift up or down arrow will select an entire paragraph.
Ctrl Enter inserts a page break in Word.
Alt Ctrl C inserts the copyright symbol (Alt Ctrl R inserts the registered trademark symbol, and Alt Ctrl T makes the trademark symbol).
In Outlook, you can jump to the section you want: Ctrl 1 switches to the Mail window, Ctrl 2 switches to the Calender, Ctrl 3 to Contacts, Ctrl 4 to Tasks, and Ctrl 5 to Notes.
Ctrl Shift M starts a new message in Outlook. (Use Ctrl Shift C for a new contact.)
In Outlook e-mail, hit Ctrl N to compose a new message, Ctrl R to reply to a message.
The only Excel shortcut I’ve ever known, Ctrl , enters the date. (If you live in Excel, you should have the Excel Keyboard Shortcuts page in your Favorites (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel/HP052037811033.aspx)!
