Hi Gurus.

I'm trying to automate word to perform the following tasks:
1. Open a given document (no problem)
2. Navigate to paragraph numbered 4.1
3. Get its content

I have no idea how to perform steps 2 & 3.
Can you help me with that?

Thanks!

Hi,

maybe you're searching for something like this:

Sub test3223()
Dim rPrg As Paragraph
For Each rPrg In ActiveDocument.ListParagraphs
If rPrg.Range.ListFormat.ListString = "2.1" Then
rPrg.Range.Select
MsgBox rPrg.Range.Text
End If
Next
End Sub
