Hi,

There is no any keyboard shortcut available to open the notepad. But you can assign any user defined shortcut for notepad. for this you will need to adjust the properties of the notepad. When you open the notepad property you will get "Shortcut key" option. You can assign any key combination. For e.g Atl +M+L. Lets try this trick and let me know if you are able to create shortcut key for notepad or not

Hi,

I suggest you that , rather than creating keyboard shortcut to open the notepad please create the desktop shortcut for notepad. If you don't know this then please see below:

1. Right click on the notepad from start > All program> accessories.
   
2. Then select the "Send to" option.
   
3. Then you need to select the option "Desktop(Create shortcut)".
   
4. Then goto the desktop and make sure that desktop shortcut for notepad is created.
