Word 2000 - shortcuts Ctrl+ up/dn/pgup/pgdn don't work
Hi all
The shortcuts for cursor movement nearly all work alright, eg. Ctrl+right moves the cursor ahead by one word, etc. But the shortcuts Ctrl+up/dn/pgup/pgdn for previous/next paragraph and last/next page don't work. The same keys separately work as expected. I can reassign those shortcuts to the commands - but no go. I can assign any other key to those same commands - no go. So it's not a keyborad issue. I've tried several recommendations in this NG here but didn't succeed. BTW: it's Word 2000 SP3 Thanks for your help flowe |

Take a look under Tools/Options/General and make sure the WP options,
Navigation and Help, are not enabled. Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

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.

To Beth Melton and CyberTaz
I'm sorry not to respond in time to your valued answers. I didn't get any notifications anymore nor have I been able to access this NG. Using my Favorite entry, I permanantly got an error message about this service beeing temporarily inaccessible. Then I've been any a couple of days. I only found it now after a clicking marathon - dear old MS persistently tried to feed me with some German "Services". Might have to do with me using FF browser?? Anyhow: CyberTaz is right - I haven't been aware of this: ************* At the bottom of the vertical scroll bar there is a set of dbl arrow buttons with a round button between them - these are Browse By controls. If the arrows are blue, it means that they have been set to Browse By... Something other than By Page. If this is the problem... Click the round button, select By Page - the arrows will return to black & the keystrokes will work as you expect. ************* To Beth Melton: I'm not aware of any installed Adobe Add-in for Word - I'm using PDF995 for making pdf documents. This doesn't exclude that somebody tampered with the settings now corrected according to CyberTaz. I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks again flowe |
