Page jumps forward when clicking on the background of a form docum
I've created a form with input fields, and dropdowns. After I fill out an
input field, if I click outside of the field on the background of the document, word jumps forward in the document. This varies from 3 full pages, to only a few lines. Does anyone know why this would be happening? Thanks. |

Page jumps forward when clicking on the background of a form docum
It's working as designed.
The effect of protecting a form is that the cursor cannot be placed anywhere outside the form fields. If you click in a protected area, Word moves the cursor to the *next* form field, no matter how far away that might be. Although it's improbable in a form you created yourself, there could also be a macro that changes which field is "next", as discussed in http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFl...etTabOrder.htm. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
