How do I toggle between open documents in Pages?

I really miss being able to toggle between two Word documents with the keyboard. I keep having to stop to use the mouse. I really hate that! Is there a way to do it in Pages?? I am looking but cannot find a way.

Thanks!

Mac OS X (10.5.2)

Daisy,

In system prefs, go to keyboard/mouse, and then keyboard short-cuts. find 'move focus to next window in active application' and set the short-cut key. I use F2 for that. If you have more than two windows it will cycle through all the open windows and not toggle back to the most recently used window, but it's handy.

Hope this helps.

Jim

Hold the Apple key and press ` (the key between z and left shift, not the apostrophe ')
