SYMPTOMS
When you press RETURN on your keyboard, the Office Assistant may not
perform a search.
CAUSE
The Office Assistant may not perform a search if a Movie object in your
document is running when you press RETURN. The Office Assistant does not
have focus in this scenario; therefore, the RETURN key is being trapped by
the Movie object.
NOTE: When you press RETURN, the Movie object either stops playing or
cycles through the next set of movie frames.
RESOLUTION
To perform an Office Assistant search while a Movie object is playing,
click Search in the Office Assistant balloon.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
REFERENCES
For more information about Playing Movies, click the Office Assistant, type
play movies, click Search, and then click to view "Play a movie."
NOTE: If the Assistant is hidden, click the Office Assistant button on the
Standard toolbar. If Microsoft Help is not installed on your computer,
