Default Word 2000 - shortcuts Ctrl+ up/dn/pgup/pgdn don't work

If you have the Adobe add-in installed then I suspect the WP options
are enabled. Unfortunately even though they aren't available in the UI
in the German version they can still be enabled/disabled. Adobe is
notorious for changing options that have nothing to do with their
add-in. I suspect it's because they use the macro recorder and don't
know how to clean their code. sigh

In any event , if they are enabled then this macro should correct the
issue:

'*****Start Macro
Sub DisableWPOptions()
With Options
.WPHelp = False
.WPDocNavKeys = False
End With
End Sub
'****End Macro

To use the above macro:
- Copy the lines between Sub/End Sub
- In Word go to Tools/Macro/Macros
- Type DisableWPOptions for the Macro name
- Click "Create" to open the Visual Basic Editor
- Paste the copied code between Sub DisableWPOptions and End Sub
- Place your insertion point in the code
- Press F5 to run the macro

Note once you have used the macro you can delete it unless you want to
preserver it for future reference. Although...if you are using the
Adobe 7 add-in for Word it should discard your changes for you since
in Adobe's infinite developing wisdom, they elected to correct another
issue they created by discarding all changes to your Normal.dot when
you exit Word. another sigh So if you do wish to save the macro,
click the Save button in the window for Visual Basic Editor.

Navigation and Help, are not enabled.


Under Tools/Options/General there are NO WordPerfect Options,
most likely because this the German version.
BTW: I have Adobe Reader 7.0.5

Thanks, flowe
