keyboard commands to move cursor

M

M. Katz

It seems that Word 2004 has re-programmed the default keyboard
commands to move the cursor from one word to the next. Formerly, I
used command-left arrow and command-right arrow. Now those are set to
start and end of line.

Just by tedius searching, I was able to find the Commands for
"StartOfLine" and "EndOfLine" in the Customize Keyboard menu. But damn
them if they haven't gone and hidden the "NextWord" "PreviousWord"
commands whatever they may actually be called. Of course the
SratOfLine and EndOfLine commands can't be found in the Edit submenu,
I had to find them by scrolling through all ten billion commands.

Does anyone out there in help land know how to re-assign the keyboard
command for moving the cursor forward and backward a single word. It's
currently set to option-left arrow and option-right arrow. Heaven help
the MacBU if they've named it something like JumpCursorOneLeft or
SpringForward FallBack.

Thanks,
M.
