In MS Word you could have an short cut key for "find next"
In MS Word you could have an short cut key for "find next" .so that it
searches for last searched keyword. Senario: we search for a word we press escape key (to close the find wizard ) to have a full view of the highlited text. To search the same word again we have to go to the wizard and press find next. Instead if there is a short cut key it might be useful. |

On the right side of your screen at the bottom of the vertical scroll bar is
the object browser. It is for precisely this. Once you have done a find and closed the dialog, clicking on the bottom double arrowhead will take you to the next find. Clicking on the up double arrowhead will take you to the previous one, clicking on the circle between them will open a selection window to let you change what the browser looks for. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Also, Ctrl+f will reopen the Find dialog box which retains the previous
content if you want to have the dialog box reappear for some reason. |:) "Charles Kenyon" wrote: On the right side of your screen at the bottom of the vertical scroll bar is the object browser.

n MS Word you could have an short cut key for "find next" .so that it
searches for last searched keyword. This one will find the next instance of already highlighted text: Sub FindNextSel() On Error Resume Next Dim FindText As String FindText = Selection Selection.Find.ClearFormatting Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting With Selection.Find .Text = FindText .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindAsk .Format = False .MatchCase = False .MatchWholeWord = False .MatchAllWordForms = False .MatchSoundsLike = False .MatchWildcards = False End With Selection.Find.Execute End Sub This one will find the next instance of whatever you had in the Find Dialog box: Sub FindNext() Selection.Find.Execute End Sub Assign a shortcut key to one or both. |
