Default CTRL+PageDown keyboard shortcut?

more of aggravation!!

Fear not!

You can reassign Ctrl+PageDown/PageUp to the desired functions, and then use
the controls on the vertical scrollbar when you actually need "Find
next/prev browse object."

For Ctrl+PageDown, assign the NextPage (listed under All commands in the
Customize keyboard dialog box)

For Ctrl+PageUp, assign PrevPage. (also under All commands)

Thanks, Ben. That's what I was afraid of!

This is actually a rather poorly-presented feature in Word. Ctrl-PageDown
is
a shortcut for "browsing" through the document. What you're browsing for,
a
page, or Find, or whatever, can be changed by the "Select Browse Object"
button.


To find the button, look at the bottom of the vertical scrollbar (the
right
side of the window). Beneath the scrollbar, you'll see a little circle
button
with a double arrow pointing up above it and another one pointing down.
It's
easier to find than I'm making it sound!


Anyway, click on the little circle button and you'll see various options,
including Page, Find, Graphic, Comment, etc. Pick one, and then Ctrl-Page
Down will move you to the next item of whatever type you chose.


Hope this helps,
Ben

(In Word 2003) I use the CTRL+PageDown keyboard shortcut often to
move page by page through documents. Sometimes, though, it doesn't
move page by page, but from one odd position to another. The Help
files say this should only be for page by page.


Earlier today, I used Find to scan the document for text formatted a
certain way. When I used CTRL+PageDown, it seemed to repeat my Find,
like it was moving through the document by the previous Browse or Find
object. I went to the bottom right corner and set the Browse object
to Page, and now it does go page by page.


Is this a bug? Or is there something I need to reset?
