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. You will need to create two macros (BrowseNext and BrowsePrev) that will automatically reset the Browse Object buttons when you click them. Use the following procedure to create the macros.

NOTE: Once these macros have been created with the names BrowseNext and BrowsePrev the COMMAND+PAGE UP, COMMAND+PAGE DOWN keys and the browse buttons on the vertical scrollbar will ALWAYS browse by page.

To create the BrowseNext macro, follow these steps:

1. Create a new Word 98 document.
2. On the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Macros.
3. Under Macro Name, type BrowseNext. In the Macros In box, click to select "All active templates and Documents," and then click Create.
   
   NOTE: This macro has to be called BrowseNext so that it will function When you click the Next Page button.
4. Change the existing BrowseNext macro to the following:

         Sub BrowseNext()
         '
         ' BrowseNext Macro
         ' Jump to the next browse object.
         '
            Application.Browser.Target=wdBrowsePage
            Application.Browser.Next
   
         End Sub
   						

5. On the File menu, click Save Normal.
6. On the File menu, click Close and Return to Microsoft Word.

To create the BrowsePrev macro, follow these steps:

1. With your new Word 98 document still open, on the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Macros.
2. Under Macro Name type BrowsePrev. In the Macros In box, click to select "All active templates and Documents," and then click Create.
   
   NOTE: This macro has to be called BrowsePrev so that it will function when you click the Previous Page button.
3. Change the existing BrowsePrev macro to the following:

         Sub BrowsePrev()
         '
         ' BrowsePrev Macro
         ' Jump to the previous browse object
         '
            Application.Browser.Target=wdBrowsePage
            Application.Browser.Previous
   
         End Sub
   						

4. On the File menu, click Save Normal.
5. On the File menu, click Close and Return to Microsoft Word.
