How To Step Through Fields In Word

By Carol Bratt / 04/09/2020 / Microsoft Word

If you use fields in your documents, there might be times when you would like to select the fields quickly.

Follow the steps below to learn how:

To step forward to the next field in your document, press F11.
To step backward to the previous field in your document, press Shift+F11.

When you reach the last field in your document, pressing F11 again does not cycle around to the first field in the file. Similarly, if you are moving backward and reach the first field in the document, Shift+F11 won’t cycle to the end of the document.
