Post once then wait for a response. 20+ minutes isn't long enough.

It's not clear what it is you want to do re the 'next' file.

You can open multiple files in the Open dialog when you go there, or you can have My Documents open on your desktop using Windows
explorer and double click documents to open them one at a time in Word and the last one you chose should remain highlighted in
Explorer as long as that window is available.

To sequentially go through documents in the File=Open dialog could be done by a macro where Word would basically go to File=Open
for you, but it doesn't have a built in 'get next' ability built into the menus.
