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
