SYMPTOMS
========

In Word 97, if you add a comment to a Word version 6.0 or 7.0 document and that
document already contains comments (annotations) that were inserted by another
reviewer and you browse through the comments using the Next or Previous Comment
buttons, Word does not browse through the document properly.

NOTE: The Next and Previous Comment buttons are located on either the Reviewing
toolbar or in the Edit Go To dialog box.

==========

This problem does not occur in documents created in Word 97. To work around this
problem, recreate the Word version 6.0 or 7.0 document in Word 97.
