You can use keyboard shortcuts to easily navigate throughout your document. This can save time if you have a long document and don’t want to scroll through the entire thing, or simply want to easily move between words or sentences.
If you think of the CTRL key as a booster key, these shortcuts are easier to remember.
- Left/Right Arrow: Move the insertion point (cursor) one character to the left or right
- Ctrl+Left/Right Arrow: Move one word to the left or right
- Up/Down Arrow: Move up or down one line
- Ctrl+Up/Down Arrow: Move up or down one paragraph
- End: Move to the end of the current line
- Ctrl+End: Move to the end of the document
- Home: Move to the beginning of the current line
- Ctrl+Home: Move to the beginning of the document
- Page Up/Page Down: Move up or down one screen
- Ctrl+Page Up/Page Down: Move to the previous or next browse object (after performing a search)
- Alt+Ctrl+Page Up/Page Down: Move to the top or bottom of the current window
- F5: Open the Find dialog box with the “Go To” tab selected, so you can quickly move to a specific page, section, bookmark, and so on.
- Shift+F5: Cycle through the last three locations where the insertion point was placed. If you just opened a document, Shift+F5 moves you to the last point you were editing before closing the document.
