OS/2

= SUMMARY =

The CTRL+> and CTRL+< key combinations do not move between field markers (CTRL+]) as expected when running Word under OS/2.

This behavior is a known problem with the Wyse keyboard, but can occur on other keyboard types under OS/2 or DOS. If this occurs, the following solution applies:

To jump between field markers within a form, load the SAFEKEYB glossary through Transfer Glossary Load. Within this glossary there are two macros titled:

next_field F prev_field F

These macros can be used to advance to the next field or the previous field, instead of using CTRL+> and CTRL+<.

To advance to the next field marker, press CTRL+N+F or CTRL+. To advance to the previous field marker, press CTRL+P+F or CTRL+,.
