If Shift+F5 doesn't respond as the first thing you do in a re-opened
document, see http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/GoBackFix.htm.

If it happens all the time but only in that particular document, look in
Tools > Customize > Keyboard to see whether the Shift+F5 key combination has
been reassigned in that document (set the "Save changes in" box to the
document instead of Normal.dot).

And if you're going to use it in a macro anyway, you don't need the key
combination at all -- just use the Application.GoBack command in your code.
