Automatically advance cursor

S

I created a form from a template. After the user enters information
in the text box field I want the cursor to automatically advance to
the next field in the form after the mouse is clicked. How do I do
this in Word 2007?

Why can't you use the TAB key for that?

What do you mean by "click"? "Click" anywhere?

After typing information in the text field the user wants to be able to do a
left or right mouse click and the cursor automatically advances to the next
text field in the form.

Tell your user that it cannot really be done that way.

You would need fairly complicated code to cathch mouse clicks.

The built-in method of navigating the Field collection is to use the Tab key
to go to the next one and Shift-Tab to go to the previous one. This is very
easy and much faster than grabbing the mouse...
No need for any code.
