It's actually been nearly two years since I've used FrameMaker on a daily basis, and that was still FM8 (for a variety of reasons that don't matter here). But the project I'm working on now is based on a document that was done in FM9, so here I am trying to meet a deadline and come to terms with a completely unfamiliar UI at the same time. <br><br>One of the things that is driving me completely nuts is the absence of cursor key navigation inside tables. The bulk of the document I'm working on is pin description tables for a SoC chip with 1243 pins, and having to reach for the mouse (or type Tab 6 times to step sequentially through the cells) to move the insertion point down one row several thousand times has *ZERO* appeal. I know that in older versions of FrameMaker there was a simple modification one could to to cmds.cfg (if I recall correctly) to make the cursor keys (or cursor keys plus a modifier key) work inside a Frame table just like they would inside a Word table or a spreadsheet, but I have had no luck putting my hands on that info. I did read the section on customizing commands in the FM7 (Windows) version of <i>Customizing FrameMaker</i> and tried a couple modifications of the FM9 cmds.cfg file, but no joy.<br><br>Can someone enlighten me whether the cursor keys can be made to work inside tables, and if so how to make that happen? My mouse hand and arm will be eternally grateful.<br><br>-Fred Ridder<br> </div></body>
