But as I understand the second part of the macro is the editing template. That uses a "usual" formula with some holes. If I had typed the same formula manually there would be some navigation logic. Why can't that used here as well, just with some parts being unchangeable because they belong to the template. And even if you just number the holes of the templates and let the cursor jump from n to n+1 and n-1 by left and right would be ok. Don't really see a problem here. As Jean-Marc wrote, if an argument appear more than once, just update all of the appearances. Schimmi
