Disabling Word Shortcut Keys:
The way to disable shortcut keys varies depending on which version of Office you have.
:Instructions for Office 2010 or earlier:
- In Word, open the Tools menu > Customize
- Click on the button at the bottom that says Keyboard
- Highlight the Category and Command that you want to disable
- Under the Current Keys box, highlight the conflicting shortcut key and then click the Remove button at the bottom of the screen.
- Close all windows when you are finished

3) To type ø, disabling the ListBullet does not work. The work around that I found was to assign the appropriate keystroke to the ø character. You can do this by going to the Insert menu > Symbol, then highlight the ø character in the table and click on the Shortcut Key button. Here you can assign a shortcut key combination much the same way you removed it from the other locations.
For Office 2013:
- In Word, right-click anywhere on the Ribbon and choose Customize Ribbon
- Find Keyboard Shortcuts at the bottom of the window that appears and click Customize
- In the Categories menu on the left, scroll down and select All Commands
- Highlight the command you want to disable in the left column (hit the first letter of the command to jump to that part of the list)
- In the Current Keys box, highlight the conflicting shortcut key and click the Remove button at the bottom of the window.
- Close all windows when finished.
- To type ß, disable the command called DocSplit
- To type ¡, disable the command called ApplyHeading1
