Default Scroll Page Line by Line

Does anyone know of a keyboard shortcut (or how to make one) for scrolling a
page down one line at a time? This would be similar to what the mouse wheel
does or the vertical scroll bar, but with a keyboard command.

I suppose one way would be to move the insertion point to the bottom of the
page, then use the down arrow, but was wondering whether there was a mouse
wheel equivalent, which doesn not require moving the insertion point to the
bottom of the page.

Couldn't find this in any of the Help items or forums. Thanks! Chris

I'm not aware of any key combination (although there may be one).

VBA to do it is ..

ActiveWindow.SmallScroll direction

so you could write a one-line macro and assign the key of your choice to it.

Thanks Tony!

Assigning a macro to a key will do what I want....
