Use macrobutton fields, but move between them with F11 rather than TAB. -

But if only the fields are places where text is entered then form fields are
the correct way to do this.

How can I mark places within a document so that I can move to those
places using only the tab key? I have a letter that I fill in certain
info in several places -- just spots I want to get to by hitting the
tab key - all I need to do is to be able to get to these places to
type and would like to do move there without picking up the mouse and
clicking to position my insertion point. (I could do this in other
word processing packages in the olden days.)

This letter is NOT A FORM - I don't need form fields. I have tried
setting up a template and using bookmarks. The ookmarks sound
promising, but the navigation depends on the Go To command (or F5)
and then choosing the bookmark. Very cumbersome. I just want to tab
forward through the document to my next typing spot.

I have tried searching through several books and the Knowledge Base.
There may be a name or keyword for what I'm trying to accomplish, and
I'm just looking for the wrong terms. Any advice would be
appreciated!!

TIA.
