Move to Next or Previous Page

[Ross from Orlando]

I use Word 2007. In Word 2003, CTRL + PageDown would take you to the
top of the next page and CTRL + PageUp would take you to the top of
the preceeding page. These shortcut combinations in Word 2007 take you
to the next and previous edits. Does anyone know the shortcut keys in
Word 2007 to move by page? Thanks,

Ross

In all recent Word versions, Ctrl+PageUp and Ctrl+PageDown are assigned to
the Previous and Next items currently selected as the "browse object." At
the bottom of the vertical scroll bar, note the two double arrows; they are
the "browse" arrows. The button between them opens a palette of possible
selections.

At the beginning of a Word session, the browse object is set to Page. When
you use Find or GoTo, the browse object is changed Find/GoTo, and the
function of the arrows changes (you'll note that the color of the arrows
changes from black to blue). To restore it to Previous Page/Next Page, click
on the Select Browse Object button and select Browse by Page.

I find that Ctrl+PageUp/Down only go to previous/next edit if I first set
the browse object to Edit or press Shift+F5.

If you have an AutoOpen macro that is running the GoBack command when
documents are opened, then that might be setting the behavoir when a
document is opened. If this is the cause of what you're seeing, you might be
able to quell it by adding the following line to the ned of the AutoOpen
macro:

Application.Browser.Target = wdBrowsePage
