How can I get Word (using XP) to go down thru a document using CTRL + Arrow
Up or Arrow Down and not have it "read" the autoformat characters?

Thanks
- Dan

Hi Dan,

I'm sorry, I just can't figure out to what you're referring when you say
"read the autoformat characters"?

And, as long as we're asking for more information: Version of Word, please?

Hi - if I understand correctly, it is (possibly) stopping
at a number/letter then going to the first character of
text? If so, the following 2 macros should do it. Copy
them to your normal.dot template.

Sub DownPara()
Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdParagraph, Count:=1
End Sub

Sub UpPara()
Selection.MoveUp Unit:=wdParagraph, Count:=1
End Sub

Then assign these macros to keyboard shortcut for
Control+Up or Control+Down
