PageUP and PageDown Key?

[Penny]

Does anybody know if you can reprogram the PageUp and PageDown key for a
template only?

TIA
Penny

Hi Penny,

This is a piece of cake. Proceed as follows:

1. Open the template (or a document based on the template)
2. Choose Customize on the Tools menu.
3. Click Keyboard . . .
4. Choose a Category of action from the list of categories.
5. Choose an action item from the list of action items (macros, autotext,
commands, etc.).
6. Pull down the list called Save Changes In and select your template.
7. Click Assign.
8. Click Close.

Good luck.

Those lines of code should do the trick!

Sub CustomPageUpAndDown()
CustomizationContext = _
Templates(FindTemplateIndex("TemplateName.dot"))
KeyBindings.Add KeyCode:=BuildKeyCode(wdKeyPageUp), _
KeyCategory:=wdKeyCategoryMacro, Command:="PageUpMacro"
KeyBindings.Add KeyCode:=BuildKeyCode(wdKeyPageDown), _
KeyCategory:=wdKeyCategoryMacro, Command:="PageDownMacro"
End Sub

Sub NormalPageUpAndDown()
CustomizationContext = _
Templates(FindTemplateIndex("TemplateName.dot"))
KeyBindings.ClearAll
End Sub

Sub PageUpMacro()
MsgBox "New PageUp function"
End Sub

Sub PageDownMacro()
MsgBox "New PageDown function"
End Sub

Function FindTemplateIndex(strName)
Dim varTemplate As Variant
Dim intX As Integer
intX = 1
For Each varTemplate In Templates
If varTemplate.Name = strName Then
FindTemplateIndex = intX
End If
intX = intX + 1
Next varTemplate
End Function

Thanks for the advice. I tried this and it works great unless the form is
protected (which mine is). Do you have any ideas for a protected form?

I don't want to be long winded or anything but, let me tell you... I have a
macro that is designed to control the tabbing order in this template
(specifically I am controling it in a table because I need to fill it in by
column not row) this template is protected also.

When I redefined the PageUp key to goto the previous field and the PageDown
key to goto the next field in my table it doesn't follow my macro it wants
to fillin by row (which is a default) not column.

Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Hi Penny,

When a document is protected, Word interprets the page up and page down keys
differently than at other times. This question has come up before, and there
is no way I know of to overcome this built-in functionality.

Hi Penny,

One solution, not necessarily a convenient one, would be to use an "on exit"
macro for each field to move the cursor down each column.

Other than that, the only suggestion I could make would be that you create a
user form, where you have explicit control over things like tab order.
Perhaps someone else can offer a different suggestion.
