Protect Document: Find Next Region I Can Edit
In Word 2003 when a user clicks Find Next Region I Can Edit in the
Protect Document pane, Word jumps to the bottom of the last page in the editable range. Can the Find Next Region I Can Edit feature be configured or programmed to jump to the beginning of the editable region of a document? Has anyone found a way to make the Find Next Region I Can Edit feature stop at the beginning rather than the end of an editable region? . Thank you. Michael |

Protect Document: Find Next Region I Can Edit
Hi Michael,
No, there probably is no easy way to change that behaviour. With older versions of Word, you could have intercepted the command, and added a line to center the screen on the start of the selection. Two lines of codes, and the button would have done what you want. But controls in the task panes mostly aren't linked to built-in commands, and aren't available for customization. As a work-around: Among the macros that I use with some frequency is one that toggles the "active end" of a selection (that is, the end where the selection is changed if you use Shift+arrow keys). I just added a bit of code so the active end is scrolled into view (which makes sense since usually you want to have the end where you can add/remove stuff on screen): Sub SelectionToggleActiveEnd() With Selection Select Case .StartIsActive Case True .StartIsActive = False ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.ScrollIntoView _ obj:=Selection.Range, start:=False Case False .StartIsActive = True ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.ScrollIntoView _ obj:=Selection.Range, start:=True End Select End With End Sub Regards, Klaus wrote: In Word 2003 when a user clicks Find Next Region I Can Edit in the Protect Document pane, Word jumps to the bottom of the last page in the editable range.
