I'm using OS 9 on a powerbook. I know that command Tab switches between open programs, but I just want to cycle through windows within a program. And I want to do it REALLY BADLY.

'Command+~' will sometimes cycle through windows in Microsoft applications (I know it works in OE 5 and IE5; not sure about the office apps).

As for other apps, not sure if there's a command for that...

Command-Tab toggles between open apps.

Thanks a bunch. Program Switcher works great, I just wish it worked in Word.

Maybe someday.
