John, I missed your original post, but saw Chip's reply. I am running Win XP Pro with Word 2003 and WE 7.2 I notice the following three things worth mentioning and hope something is helpful.
Pressing just the Page up and Page Down keys moves you up and down one screen within Word. Pressing Control and the Page Up or Page Down key jumps you to the top of the next page. The caveat on the above is that, if you have used the Find feature in Word since the last time you've used the Control Page Up or Down, this key combination will take you to the next instance of the last word you were looking for, even if you've closed out of the Find dialog box. In order to quickly get back to the Control plus Page up and down key combination moving you by page in Word, you need to hit Control + G, then hit return, and then Escape, which selects the "page" option for the Go To dialog. In the dialog, your cursor will be in the page number box. If you enter nothing (as I indicated by just saying to hit return), it takes you to the next page, but you can certainly enter a page number to jump to. Once you have it down, it's so quick to just hit Control + G, enter and then escape and know that you are now at the top of the next page. From there, you can go back to using Control + Page Up or Down. _________________________________ Robin Van Lant, Program Manager Key Equipment Finance Tel: 720-304-1060 "Chip Orange" <[email protected]> 09/12/2010 03:10 PM To <[email protected]> cc "'Chip Orange'" <[email protected]> Subject RE: Problem with ms word reading by screen Hi John, did you ever get an answer as to how to make Word go to the next page when WE is running? I did check the manual, and I don't see an obvious way. I see two possible work arounds: * one is to use the Word "goto" dialog (press control-G), which will take you to various items such as bookmarks, comments, footnotes, sections, and pages. for a page, you have to enter the specific page number, so you'd have to know what page your on, then you could enter the next page number. * or you could use the WordNav script, which much like the Word "goto" command, lets you move to various items, which include next page. you'll have to download this script from script central. This gives me an idea for an enhancement to my MS Word script: because, Word has something called the "navigation browser" or the "thumb" in the status bar. you click on it, and rotor it between different types of objects to navigat between, and then there is a keystroke which will take you to the next one of whatever this is set to. I don't know of any way to rotor this browsing thumb between it's choice except with the mouse, so I'll look into adding a keystroke to my script. hth, Chip -----Original Message----- From: John Riehl [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, August 21, 2010 8:28 PM To: gwinfo Subject: Problem with ms word reading by screen I'm helping a friend configure her new computer. She's using windows xp pro and office 2003. when she uses MS Word, and pages down, word says "next screen", instead of taking her to the next page. I've looked but can't find how to change this behavior. Can anyone help?
