I am creating a class to connect to Microsoft Word using VC++ 6.0 ClassWizard
and the object library MSWORD.OLB.

Most of the function calls in this class use the Varient type to pass
parameters, but I cannot find the actual values for the enumeration types so
I can pass in that value. Does anyone know how or where these enumeration
types are defined.

For example, WdUnits is composed of wdCharacter, wdWord, wnSentence, etc.

Thanks for your help.

Phil

Open the VBA editor within Word, by pressing Alt-F11

Press F2 to bring up the Object Browser

Type the term you want into the search box and press Enter

Open the VBA editor in Word, and press F2 to open the Object Browser. Search
for and select any enumeration you're interested in. Select a member of the
enumeration, and the value of the constant will appear at the bottom of the
window.

I don't know of any place where the values are simply listed the way they
would be in an include file -- presumably the Office development team has
such an include, but AFAIK they don't release it.
