LinkToPrevious causes 'This command is not available' error

[cameron]

Hi,

I am doing some Word automation through .Net and some old VB6. The VB6
code works perfectly, no hiccups or issues other than it is slow.
The .Net code works and is way faster (at least 2X faster) except all
of my LinkToPrevious commands blow up. If I remove them all (the Word
document will look really silly) it works fine.

I am using Word 2003 on a Windows 2003 Server box.

I am stumped and have spent a fair bit of time on this issue. I found
a simular post to this on this newsgroup (http://groups.google.ca/
group/microsoft.public.office.developer.automation/browse_thread/
thread/bdc229a03eeaac47/7be00ab9ce14b7f3#7be00ab9ce14b7f3) but with no
responses. I checked out the link it referenced (http://
support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q242931) which was
equally unhelpful.

Thanks for you time.
