Using the Program
^QP - Go To Last Cursor Position - will jump you back to the cursor position prior to any of the following commands:
^C, ^Q1~0, ^QA, ^QB, ^QC, ^QD, ^QE, ^QF, ^QG, ^QI, ^QK, ^QR, ^QS, ^QV, ^QX, and ^R .
It does not return to these locations:
^QP, ^QY, ^W, ^Y, or ^Z
or to these:
^QL, ^QN, ^QR^QL (menu item), spelling checks as they return you to their start position anyway.
If the word is found in the spell check dictionary Word will not report it. Thus if you don't get the option to choose alternatives, the spelling is correct, or at least, matches a word in either the main, or your own personal dictionaries.

^ON is listed on the Onscreen Commands Help screen (^JO) but doesn't work. The command is not listed in the Commands.txt file supplied with the program, and this should be used as the official commands reference list.
The ^ON command may be added later as it combines several of Word's 'note' commands into a single dialog screen - Word does not support three-letter command sequences so ^OND, etc., would not work.
If you want access to the Footnote/Endnote dialog in Word you can add the command ^ON, to open that screen, to either your normal.dot template, or to the WordStar.dot Add-In. Adding it to the latter will mean that other users of your copy of Word that don't use the WordStar Command Emulator won't get confused when ^O no-longer gives the File Open dialog!
To add the command ^ON follow the steps below (described for Word 2000):
Note: if your WordStar Command Emulator Add-In file is not called WordStar.dot you will have to substitute the name that is used below:
- Click Utilities, then click Customize
- Click the Keyboard button, then change the Save changes in option to WordStar.dot
- Select the Insert category
- Select the Insert Footnote Command, then in in the Type new command box type ^ON, then click Assign
- Click Close, then click Close again.
- When you close Word click Yes to the Save changes to the WordStar.dot Emulator Add-In file.
^ON will now open the Footnote/Endnote dialog.
Change Case (^K., ^K' and ^K") only apply case change to a highlighted block, sentence, or to a word in which cursor is positioned. They don't look for the ^KB and ^KK markers for the block to act upon. This mode of operation is considered to be more use than needing to block mark with ^KB and ^KK first.
