Page Up/Down and cursor position - advice, please
I've searched around for the answer to this but can't find it.
I'm using Word 2000 under Windows XP Pro SP2. Following a computer crash I've just reinstalled all my software. In my previous Word setup I'd reassigned the keys PgUp and PgDn to give "Previous Page" and "Next Page" respectively, so I could move through files one whole A4 page at a time. This worked very well. However, redoing this for the new installation has caused a curious snag: though the onscreen view of the document changes correctly, the insertion cursor (if that's the right term) doesn't move correspondingly: it stays at its original position in the text. I'm quite sure that in my old installation the cursor moved up or down along with the displayed view. Was there a step in the reassignment that I've omitted this time? Or is there some other setting I need to adjust to achieve what I want? Many thanks for any help. Bert www.bertcoules.co.uk |

Sorry to answer my own question, but I've just found the answer:
I was mistaken in thinking that previously I had reassigned PgUp and PgDn to Previous Page and Next Page; what I actually did was assign to each a keyboard macro: "Ctrl + Previous Page" and "Ctrl + Next Page" respectively. This *does* move the cursor along with the display. I hope this might be of us to somebody else out there; if not, my apologies for wasting the space. Bert www.bertcoules.co.uk |
