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
04) that got picked up in Office 08?

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.
