Automatically run a sub

I am trying to get a sub to run when I press a combination of letters.
This is what I use and it works fine when pressing 1 letter.
Application.OnKey "^t", "SUB_TEST"

I want to use more than 1 letter.
Possibly a letter and a number but I would settle for two letters.

Can anyone help?

Thank You
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Not tested. Does this help?

Code:
[FONT=courier new][SIZE=1][COLOR=#000000]Sub SetShortcutKeys()[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]With Application[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000].OnKey Key:="^t", Procedure:=[/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]"SUB_TEST"[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]End With[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]End Sub[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

Sorry I realized code won't answer your question. VBA help says

The Key argument can specify any single key combined with ALT, CTRL, or SHIFT, or any combination of these keys
