Your mention of revisions within a table reminded me of: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913804. According to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841539, this was fixed in Office 2003 Service Pack 2, which raises thequestion: Do you have Office 2003 Service Pack 2 or later installed?

Your wealth of knowledge is astounding.

I checked my Word version in the Help menu, and I have Service Pack 3 even. Not a firm believer in the robustness of Microsoft's operation, I refused to give MS the benefit of the doubt and personally went to see the registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\W ord\Options.

Surprise! (Well, actually I wasn't surprised.) There was still no AlternateRevisionStepThrough key in there. I have no idea what transpired when Service Pack 3 was installed, but the key must have been removed some time ago if Service Pack 2 had ever installed it.

Anyways, I've manually inserted the key, as instructed by the Knowledge Base, and the problem is gone!

Thanks so much!

And the long saga continues.

Would a picture (inserted as a file through Insert-Picture command) cause an error with this macro? I inserted a JPG file in the document and started facing run-time error 5917.

Possibly. Try inserting:
On Error Resume Next
before:
For i = 1 To .Revisions.Count
That should allow the macro to skip over such errors.
