Re: Keystroke formatting in Find box not working

I found the source of the problem. I have created macros that intercept
the built-in Underine, Italic and Bold commands, and this changed their
functionality so that pressing the keystrokes no longer registers in the
Find box.

I like the improvements I've made to the built-in commands. For one
thing, I've changed them so that the cursor doesn't have to be inside a
word in order to underline or italicize it. The cursor can be just
touching the first or last character of the word and the command will
still format the word. So I want to keep my customizations while also
retaining the functionality of these commands when they are run in the
Find box.

So the question is, is there a way I can determine through VBA if the
focus is on the Find box? If there is, then I would run the standard
code for these commands if the Find box is active, and I would run my
customized code if it's not.

Any ideas? :-)

I'm copying this message to the vba group.
