Completing Form Fields - Cursor Direction
Is it possible to control which direction the cursor moves around a form.
Currently my form fields are in the cells of a table. The cursor by default moves from left to right across the cells in the rows of my table, then when the cells run out in that row it goes down in to the next row and then left to right again. Is it possible to change the properties of a field so that the cursor moves in a downward direction and then back up again and across. Basically the following fields exist: Company Name , Address, Town, and Postcode - these fields are listed in a column and not in a row and so I need Word to move down the cell in the column rather than along the cells in a row. If the cursor moves across by default after 'Company' the user is asked an unassociated different question to their address information and I'd rather the user only completed their name and address details first. |
