SYMPTOMS
When you use the NextObject command by adding the command to a toolbar or menu and then clicking to browse objects in a document, the command fails to browse.



WORKAROUND
Microsoft provides programming examples for illustration only, without warranty either expressed or implied. This includes, but is not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. This article assumes that you are familiar with the programming language that is being demonstrated and with the tools that are used to create and to debug procedures. Microsoft support engineers can help explain the functionality of a particular procedure, but they will not modify these examples to provide added functionality or construct procedures to meet your specific requirements.

To work around this problem, you can create the following Visual Basic for Applications procedure to browse by object. You can then attach the macro to a command button in Word.

For more information about adding a macro to a menu or toolbar, click Microsoft Word Help on the Help menu, type Add a command or other item to a menu in the Office Assistant or the Answer Wizard, and then click Search to view the topic.
