You can use a the Object Browser to look at the information in this file and to browse the object model it describes.

To open the Object Browser in the Visual Basic Editor, use the following steps:


 * 1) In Word, point to Macro on the Tools menu, and click Visual Basic Editor.
 * 2) On the View menu, click Object Browser.
 * 3) From the Object Browser window, in the Project/Library box, click the object library whose objects you want to see (for example: Word), or click  to view the objects of all referenced libraries.

NOTE: If the object library whose objects you want to examine doesn't appear in the Project/Library box, you must create a reference to the object library using the References dialog box (Tools menu).
