Is there anyway to send a left mouse click event? I just need to have it
click down once where my cursor is.

The reason behind this is that I am using a webbrowser to display my Word
Document and it is losing focus after I insert a bookmark from my ActionsPane.

Anyway, is it possible to send a mouse event that way? Thanks!

Do you think there is a solution to my problem? I can't figure out what else
to do. I guess it just wasn't meant to be in a browser.

BTW...how do you know so much Jezebel? I see you in SO many posts.

The closest would probably be an Activate method (as in doc.Activate).

I thought the .Activate would work too, but it doesn't work when I am viewing
the Document in IE. Is there any type of work around to this problem or will
the user just have to click back on the Document?

I'm afraid I don't know. You might try asking this question in a group that
deals with embedded objects in IE and/or one of the office.developer groups.
Someone there might know how.
