I did as you suggested: set up a key to go to the next sentence and another to go to the previous sentence. It seems highly unreliable - I have a small document with a few sentences in it. Sometimes my shortcuts work but sometimes they miss a sentence completely. It seems to be always the same sentences but I haven't done very extensive tests. I did the same for *select* to next sentence and *select* to previous sentence. Same problem: some sentences just get ignored (skipped over). There doesn't seem to be anything special about the missed sentences. My test document is very simple. Every sentence starts with a capital letter is terminated by a full stop and a space. I haven't yet tried with other terminators like question mark or exclamation mark. This on Win XP Pro with OOo 2.3.1 Any ideas anyone? Hope that helps, It does, as usual.
