Is there a "reference key" as to which symbol will show up when I
press a certain number or letter on my keyboard when I have the TI-
Nspire fonts enabled in Microsoft Word? I have installed the key
fonts from TI and can access them, but I do not see any "pattern" as
to how they are arranged.

Instead of typing them with the keys, I choose to Insert the key fonts
as symbols.

If you are using Word on a pc running Windows XP then the following certainly applies to you:

 

The method I use most often is ALT… I … S (Insert > Symbol). Find TI-Nspire Keys from the list of fonts.

Once the TI-Nspire Keys is used then it will quickly open up to that.

 

 

If you change the font to TI-NspireKeys, then here is a sort of map:

`1234567890-=\     `1234567890-=\

qwertyuiop[]          qwertyuiop[]

asdfghjkl;’             asdfghjkl;

zxcvbnm,./            zxcvbnm,./

 

~!@#$%^&*()_+|  ~  !@#$%^&*()_+|

QWERTYUIOP{}   QWERTYUIOP{}

ASDFGHJKL:”         ASDFGHJKL:

ZXCVBNM<>?         ZXCVBNM<>?

 

(I’ve heard of and seen that some people use tool bars and such, but ALT, I, S works great for what I do. On John Hanna’s site he has some info about tool bars – see http://www.johnhanna.us/pdf/toolbar.pdf )

I don't think that's possible at all, but you might want to check that on the reference manual.
I went through the character selection window, saw lots of latin-extended characters, but no other alphabet (except greek, of course!).

Also,

If you are running Office 2007, on theribbon, it remembers the last 20
symbols you have inserted. Just click on the symbol you need and go.
