Sean,
The documentation now states:
Creates and returns a Clip object containing information about the next
clip, based on the EnclosingRectangle and Point properties if no
ScreenPoint parameter is specified. If a ScreenPoint parameter is
specified, the prior character will be based on the EnclosingRectangle,
and the specified ScreenPoint. NextClip will also update the Point
property with the position of the new clip.
Syntax
Set object_variable = object.NextClip(ScreenPoint)
where object is a Text object.
Parameters
Name
Data Type
Required/Optional
Description
ScreenPoint
Object
Optional
Location to obtain text from. If a ScreenPoint is not specified, the
Text object's Point property will be used.
So if you don't supply a ScreenPoint, the Text object's Point property
will be used.

Hi Aaron:
Thanks for that, if this is the case then, is the help incorrect, as it
states the screenpoint parameter for the NextClip method of the text
object is optional, shouldn't this be required?
Sean.

Subject: Re: Text.NextClip parameters
If you don't specify the appropriate parameters, the Text object won't
contain anything, because it wouldn't know where to get any information
from. If you have a clip, you can get the screen point by doing:
ClipObj.Position.ScreenPoint

Hi:
If I don't supply a screen point, to the text.nextClip method, will it
use the current clip?
I am using this in OnChildClipRendered.
