link form feilds bma 12/15/2008 7:24:02 PM How can i force the cursor to go from form feild to form feild automatically?

RE: link form feilds Pepper 12/15/2008 8:37:01 PM I am not sure about "automatic" but if you turn on the Forms toolbar (Word 2000, 2002, 2003), click the Lock icon at the extreme right side, the Tab key on the keyboard will move you from field to field, and will not allow editing anything else but the contents of the fields. Can also be done from Tools - Protection - Form (allows setting password to unprotect) "bma" wrote: [Quoted Text] > How can i force the cursor to go from form feild to form feild automatically? >
