A way to auto-skip headings in a table, without tabbing through?
I have a table with a line which is a heading, then several cells that needs
data input. Another row of headings, followed again by several cells that need data input. Is there a way to automatically skip the heading areas of the table, so as not to have to tab several times through? (Have the cursor stop in the first cell that needs to have data input into it? And, then using the Tab key to advance to the next (non-heading) cell? Thank You! |

You can do this in a protected form, but you will need to add form fields
where you want to put the data, and protecting a document for forms imposes many limitations. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...nTheBlanks.htm and especially the forms tutorials by Dian Chapman that this article links to. -- Suzanne S.
