I can't reproduce this - which shortcut exactly are you referring to?
When I change the "Move focus to next window in active application"
shortcut, it works in both Word08 and XL08.

Yup - works straight out of the box for me. I'm on a MacBook Pro, and
IIRC, it works find on my desktop too.

Are you sure you didn't have previous customizations (e.g., in Office

That's interesting - as you can see from these newsgroups, there's been
a number of keyboard issues - and it's hard to tell what might be
Apple's responsibility and what might be MS's.

With the Geman keyboard you can cycle through the workbooks using the
Cmd + Shift + ' (found to the left of the backspace button) keyboard
combination.
