Navigation/dialog box script questions

In Entourage 2008 I'd like the ability to have a single keystroke to
select some text and search for it's next occurrence.

So instead of:

Select Text
Copy
Find
Paste
Return

It would be

Select text
Hit keystroke shortcut

If you use Textwrangler or BBEdit for example, I want to make a
Command-H type shortcut (not Hide).

I doubt this is built into Entourage, but thought I'd ask.

tia,

Jeff

sorry, it isn't built in to Entourage.

Please send feedback to Microsoft on this. Use the 'Send Feedback' item
under the 'Help' menu in any Office application. The more people that
request such a feature the more likely it is to be implemented.

Select message.
Copy word
Command-F and paste (Command-V)
Use Command-G to find next occurrence.

Thanks, but see my original post.

Maybe you could do this with Keyboard Maestro or another Macro, but my steps
are so simple, it seems like overkill. YMMV
