‘How to,List Current Keyboard Shortcuts’
Use this procedure to create a macro that generates a list of all the commands in the integrated development environment (IDE) and any shortcut keys mapped to those commands according to the current keyboard mapping scheme.
Several keyboard mapping schemes are available in the IDE. You can change keyboard mapping schemes on the Keyboard page, under the Environment folder of theOptions dialog box. For more information, see How to: Work with Keyboard Shortcuts.

To list current keyboard shortcut mappings
On the Tools menu, point to Macros, and then click Macros IDE.
In Project Explorer, double-click MyMacros.
Right-click Module1 and then click Rename.
Type KeyboardShortcuts as the new name for the module.
Double-click KeyboardShortcuts to open the file in the editor.
Paste the following code in the file after Public Module KeyboardShortcuts:
Sub GetAllCommands()
Dim cmd As Command
Dim ow As OutputWindow = DTE.Windows.Item(Constants.vsWindowKindOutput).Object
Dim owp As OutputWindowPane
Dim exists As Boolean
Dim i As Integer
Dim sArray() As String
sArray = New String() {}
i = 1
exists = False
For Each owp In ow.OutputWindowPanes
If owp.Name = "Macro Output" Then
exists = True
Exit For
End If
i = i + 1
Next
If exists Then
owp = ow.OutputWindowPanes.Item(i)
Else
owp = ow.OutputWindowPanes.Add("Macro Output")
End If
owp.Clear()
' Output 1 line per command
For Each cmd In DTE.Commands
Dim binding As Object
Dim shortcuts As String
shortcuts = ""
For Each binding In cmd.Bindings
Dim b As String
b = binding
If Not shortcuts = "" Then
shortcuts += "--OR-- "
End If
shortcuts = shortcuts + b + " "
Next
shortcuts = shortcuts.Trim()
If Not cmd.Name.Trim().Equals("") And Not shortcuts.Equals("") Then
sArray.Resize(sArray, sArray.Length + 1)
sArray(sArray.Length - 1) = cmd.Name + vbTab + shortcuts
End If
Next
Array.Sort(sArray)
owp.OutputString(String.Join(vbCrLf, sArray))
End Sub
On the File menu, click Save MyMacros.
Switch back to Visual Studio.
On the Tools menu, point to Macros and then click Macro Explorer.
Expand MyMacros and then expand KeyboardShortcuts.
Right-click GetAllCommands and then click Run.
The macro generates a list of all possible commands in the IDE and any keyboard shortcut mappings these commands have in the current keyboard mapping scheme.
On the View menu, click Output.
Commands and their shortcut key combinations appear in the Output window. You can copy this information and paste it into another application, such as Microsoft Office Excel, for additional formatting and printing options.
