Clicking on it, using a "Next Record" or "Previous Record" script, using the rolodex icon, using "go to related record", landing there as the 1st result of a Find or the topmost record of a Sort.

I haven't done much work with script triggers, so I may be selling them short if a single trigger command could cover all of these navigation methods. I guess I assumed (woops) that the word "script" in "script triggers" meant that they could only be activated FROM a script. Not so?
