[mso] Word 2002: Replace Mouse With Keystrokes

I remember a recent post here about replacing mouse functions with
keystrokes and have not been able to find it in my email or the archives on
the mso freelist website (may not be searching or remembering the right
words). I have a Microsoft Word templates that use fillin pop up dialog
boxes to gather the information. The users would like to be able to press
enter instead of clicking "OK" with the mouse after each question, enabling
them to keep their hands on the keyboard throughout the whole question
process. How do I do this?
For many reasons, at this time the form is utilizing 'fillin questions'
instead of an opening form, am just needing to add whatever I can to the
opening routine to tell it to use keystrokes instead of mouse clicks.
Appreciate any links or help, thanks, Cathy
Here is my AutoNew code, the fillin's automatically activate since it is a
template:
Sub MAIN()
' Toggle Design Mode
If CommandBars("Control Toolbox").Visible = True Then
ActiveDocument.ToggleFormsDesign
End If
ActiveDocument.MailMerge.MainDocumentType = wdNotAMergeDocument
Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToBookmark, Name:="aHelp"
End Sub
And here is what I use if they want to update their answers:
Private Sub cmdUpdate_Click()
Selection.WholeStory
Selection.Fields.Update
End Sub
