If I have and object variable set to some range in a document, how can I find
out the paragraph number of some arbitrary paragraph in that range?

IOW, each paragraph is numbered starting from 1 to the number of paragraphs
in the document. If I use the Find object's Execute method to return a range
close to the bottom of the document, how do I find out the paragraph number
relative to the document as opposed to the range object?

Thanks, very good.

On Microsoft's part though, I find it very awkward.
