Title pretty much says it all. For the life of me I can't find a simple keyboard command to move the cursor from a comment back to the main body of the document.

The only roundabout solution I've found is to use Ctrl-G to open the "go to" dialog box, enter +1 to go to the next page in the document and then scroll up. A simple click with the mouse obviously changes the focus but I'm really trying to wean myself from the mouse.



Likewise, I'm trying to find a shortcut for going the opposite direction - from the main body to an existing comment.

TIA

R

To exit a comment and return to the document body, just press ESC.

I don't know of a shortcut to go the other way, though (besides using the Go To tab of the Find and Replace dialog box).

Now I feel foolish - Esc is so obvious! Can't believe I didn't try.

The GoTo tab took me to the comment so I could read it but didn't put the cursor in the comment. Oh well, not a big deal.

Thanks for the help!

I discovered how to put the cursor in the comment balloon by just using the Alt-underline letter options:
Alt-R (review) then V (previous comment) or N (next). I overlook the obvious once again

It's very easy to forget about accelerator keys. :-)
