Macro to go to last record

[Pierke Bosschieter]

Hi all,

I wondered if someone has made a macro to go to the last empty record, the one with the little star in front. I have been trying to do this, but it alludes me. Is it even possible?

Thanks for any suggestions,

Pierke

Hi Pierke,

I think Ctrl+PageDown will get you to the last record, then use the
DownArrow key, so as to be ready for a new record. Thus, the macro
should contain ^{pgdn} and {down}.

I'm trying to figure why you'd need/want that -- I generally work in As Entered order and to get to that last record I use the alternate keystrokes: ctrl+semicolon. Wouldn't pressing those keys get you to the last record as fast as a macro would?

I work in two phases -- reading/entering and then later editing -- which I mostly do in the Index Pane. Sometimes I re-order the index in the grid -- looking at it page order (Shift+F7), but I think about entering best in As Entered (Shift+F5).

Maybe I just got fast at this by learning the keystrokes for commands.

How do you work, Pierke?

Deborah

I, too, use Ctrl ;

It works in Page order, As Entered order, and Alphabetic (Sorted) order.

Curious about the answer to Deborah's question.

All the best,

I work the same way as Deborah—Shift+F5. During editing, I work in alpha order—Shift+F8. If I need to add, I use ctrl+semicolon

 

I memorized these commands so long ago that I don’t even think about it as I use them.
