        It works. Not exactly as you've been trying it tho'...

        To make it work, do this:


        Click on the Speedbook button (The square in the lower right corner) 
and all your spells/scrolls should get listed. Place the mouse over one of the 
spells above the INterface and hit F5 to F8. That's how it works for me. 
Personalities of different computers may cause it to do otherwise. :)
