Keys to using Robert & Collins electronic dictionary 2004
The Robert & Collins electronic dictionary 2004 - 500,000 words and expressions and more than a million translations - is rather tiresome because when you try to link it to Wordfast, the ordinary Robert;{SearchWord}{Enter} keys do not work, for the simple reason that the next time a word is selected and the Wordfast dictionary link is used, it is added on to the previous word. To avoid this the previous word needs to be removed. Here are the keys that you need to do this, making it much more efficient.
Robert;%{Backspace}{Del}{SearchWord}{Enter}
I have tested this, and although a bip sound can be heard, it is fully functional. It only works with the dictionary icon and not the shortcut (never understood why). As far as I know this can be applied to other electronic bilingual dictionaries by Roberts & Collins.
