Greetings,

I would like to be able to step through lines of code in the Visual Basic Editor, but am unable to do so with F8. My 'F' buttons are set to monitor brightness. How do I locate the shortcut key to step through lines of code, and either reset it or just view current shortcut keys?

Thanks!

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"

If you have a Logitech keyboard, press fn+Esc (hold down the key marked "fn", then press the Esc key). That should make your function keys all behave as you expect. If you have a different brand keyboard, you will need to search online for the way to toggle the function keys. In the meantime, if you hold down your keyboard function toggle button when pressing the F8 function key, it should step through the code lines).

Thanks, I swapped out the keyboard with another and it is stepping through lines of code with F8.
