How to find all ways to initiate a paste command in MS Word?

Question

I'm working on an add-in for MS Word and I'd like to create a custom handler for pasting (EditPaste is the built-in command). I can see that, by default, Ctrl+V and Shift+Insert are bound to EditPaste, and there are buttons which also initiate a paste.

Unfortunately, some keyboards have additional buttons/combinations which result in a paste action. Is there a way to detect these, possibly using VBA?

Answer 1

Not detectable, as far as I know, but here's a list:

1. Paste - from a Cut/Copy.
   • Paste text or an object: CTRL + V
   • Paste special: CTRL + ALT + V
   • Paste formatting only: CTRL + SHIFT + V
   • Paste text or an object: SHIFT + INSERT
2. Paste - from a Cut/Copy. (Note that A) these are for Word 2007/2010 only and B) they are keyboard sequences, not combinations.)
   • Keep Source Formatting: Alt and then H, V, K
   • Merge Formatting: Alt and then H, V, M
   • Keep Text Only: Alt and then H, V, T
3. Paste - from a Spike (Spike is like a secondary clipboard, it doesn't use Windows Clipboard. Cut to the Spike is CTRL + F3)
   • Paste from the Spike once: CTRL + SHIFT + F3
   • Paste from the Spike multiple times: type the word spike and press F3
4. Paste - just once. (Select and cut using F2 and then reposition the cursor anywhere)
   • Paste: ENTER
