I have just installed open office on my mac. The pc will come later. Looks good for now.
Where do I find a keyboard with "next" and "prior on it?
When I install on my pc, will I still need thosae two keys?
I am used to control+tab and alt+tab on the pc and would like to have that if I could figure out how to reconfigure the program.
Any comments would be appreciated.

Re: keyboards
I'm not sure I understand your questions. You can configure the keyboard bindings with Tools >Customise : Keyboard.

Re: keyboards
On my pc, I am able to toggle between programs and between sheets in a spreadsheet using the alt+tab or alt+ctl keys. I have gone to the tools section of open office, and the keyboard functions do not seem to be programable. I can look up the key toggles for next sheet, and it does not allow me to reconfigure that to another set of key commands. I do not have keys on my keyboard labeled "next" or "prior", so I am unable to use the commands that allow me to easily switch between sheets.
One of my questions are in regard to the programability of the keys. I have not been able to reprogram any keys.
The second question is where can I get a keyboard that has those keys?
The third question is will I have the same problems when I install open office on my pc?
Thank you,

Re: keyboards
I think 'next' and 'prior' refer to 'Page Down' and 'Page Up'. CTRL + Page Dn | Up will navigate to the next | prior sheet. On my system, it is not circular. IOW, you cannot move directly between the first sheet and the last sheet.

Re: keyboards
Thanks for the tip. I may get the hang of this, yet.
