Help with Tabbing within a Table
I have a bit of a delima that I can no seem to figure out. Currently I
have a word document that is being used basicly as a form. Because of this there are defined editable regions, the document is layout using tables and only certian cells will be an editable region. Now when I hit the tab button while the document is locked (editable regions enabled only) it tabs from table cell to table cell. I have been tasked with finding a to make the document only cycle (when using the tab key) to cycle from editable region to editable region, so that the end user does not have to tab from table cell to table cell like it currently does. Does this exist, is it possible? If anyone can offer some insight that would be geat Thanks. |

Help with Tabbing within a Table
You don't say what version of Word you're using, but if it's Word 2003 or
earlier and you have created the document using form fields and protected it as a form, you will get the behavior you want. See the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman linked from http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA Word MVP FAQ site: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. wrote in message ups.com...
