Hi. I am autoamtiacally creating a MS Word file through code. Most of
my code works, but when I try to do a find and replace, I get a
read/write memrory access error. Not sure what is going on. Any advice?
Error occurs on the .Text line of the with block

Public wordapp As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application
Public doc As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document

With wordapp.Selection.Find
.Text = "[" & Trim(strField) & "]"
.Replacement.Text = Trim(strReplacementText)
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.Format = False
.MatchCase = False
.MatchWholeWord = False
.MatchWildcards = False
.MatchSoundsLike = False
.MatchAllWordForms = False
End With
wordapp.Selection.Find.Execute(Replace:=wdReplaceAll)
