Maybe LEFT Alt+a is shortcut for Table=>Autofit, I don't know because I don't
use it, but RIGHT Alt+a is shortcut for Polish "a" letter.

Yes indeed, both works perfectly.

There are the same for MS Office and OpenOffice. In every program when I want
to write Polish "a" letter I have to use RIGHT Alt+a. It's universal.

It doesn't help when I use pl_PL. I can add that my keyboard layout both in
en_US and pl_PL is:
Country:Poland
Variants:Poland

It allows me to type Polish letter "a" in both locales by doing RIGHT Alt+a in
every program but not in MS Word 2003 and MS Word 2007.
