changing cursor position

[anand]

I am running a loop to check starting character of each line. while doing this i require that current cursor position also moves to starting letter of each line.
Can anyone suggest me the VBA code in Word which also changes cursor position as loop executes.

What exactly are you trying to check and why?
What do you mean by a 'line'. Lines in Word are volatile entities created by text flow. Do you perhaps mean 'paragraph'?
There is no reason to 'move the cursor, to establish what the first character of a paragraph is, but if you insist, the following will work for the document body.

Dim oPara As Paragraph
For Each oPara In ActiveDocument.Paragraphs
    oPara.Range.Characters(1).Select
    MsgBox oPara.Range.Characters(1)
Next oPara
