Hello,

I have a macro that causes Word to hang when the macro is run in a document
that contains comments (the comment "bubbles"). In my macro, I use the
Selection.MoveUntil method and pass in a negative number or the wdBackward
constant. If the current selection is in front of a comment, MoveUntil hangs
word if I try to "back up" over the comment.

Here is a simple macro that shows the problem:

Public Sub GoToPrevStar()
   Selection.MoveUntil "*", wdBackward
End Sub

Here is an example of a simple document that can be used to reproduce the
problem:
"The * [insert comment here]quick brown fox"

If I place my cursor after the comment (for example, between quick and
brown) and run the GoToPrevStar macro, Word hangs. If I take out the comment,
the macro works fine.

I have tested this in Word 2003 and Word 2002 and it hangs in both versions.

Has anyone heard of this problem or a workaround?

Thanks,
Mike
