    CTL-PageDown is a chrore.

    I saw someone did something with a macro, but I don't know what it was.

    Yes he did, he configured the <Right-Arrow> key to jump to the next
    message and the <Left-Arrow> key to jump to the previous message.

    Fernando,

    what did the l/r arrow keys do after you made the macro?

    I have yet to find the macros in OpenXP
