Is there anyway to create a keyboard macro that will scroll a Word document
down just a few lines? I'm a medical transcriptionist and I like to have the
lines I'm currently typing to be positioned in the upper 1/2 (or so) of the
document. I hate having to reach for the mouse to scroll manually. Any
ideas? Thanks!
 
Grace,

Assign the following macro to a keyboard shortcut and modify the down value
to suit your taste:

Sub MySmallScroll()
ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=10
End Sub
 
Worked great! I have been wanting to know how to do that for about 8 years!
Can't wait to show it to my transcriptionist friends - they'll love it. It's
always been a pain typing when you can see only half of the bottom line of
text in a document. And it savex so much time not having to reach for the
mouse (especially when you're typing 100+ documents a day)!

ThankYouVeryMuch!
