If you have limited programming experience, you may want to contact a Microsoft Certified Partner or the Microsoft fee-based consulting line at (800) 936-5200. For more information about Microsoft Certified Partners, please visit the following Microsoft Web site: For more information about the support options that are available and about how to contact Microsoft, visit the following Microsoft Web site: To programmatically navigate a document by headings, use one of the following examples:

To move to the Next browse target

    With Application.Browser
      .Target = wdBrowseHeading
      ' Move to next Browse Heading
      .Next
   End With
				

To move to the Previous browse target

    With Application.Browser
      .Target = wdBrowseHeading
      ' Move to previous Browse Heading
      .Previous
   End With
				
Before ending the macro, you may want to return to the Browsing Target that was in use prior to and after changing the Browsing Target. The following example demonstrates how to do this:
   Sub BrowseByHeading()
      Dim iCurrentBrowse As Integer
      'Store current browse mode
      iCurrentBrowse = Application.Browser.Target
      'Set new browse mode
      With Application.Browser
         .Target = wdBrowseHeading
         ' Move to next Browse Heading
         .Next
      End With
      'Return to stored browse mode
      Application.Browser.Target = iCurrentBrowse
   End Sub
