MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / July 2005Clearing Find parameters
Is there a single, one line command that puts all the Search parameters back to their default state? After doing a search, I always run things like this: With Selection.Find .Text = "" .Replacement.Text = "" .MatchWildcards = False End With But I'm wondering if this is necessary. Thanks, Larry >Is there a single, one line command that puts all the Search parameters >back to their default state?

Grab the subroutine ClearFindAndReplaceParameters from http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/ClearFind.htm, and call it after using Selection.Find. See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/FlushFR.htm for an example of its use. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org I would be a built-in method: Selection.Find.DefaultSettings :-) > >Is there a single, one line command that puts all the Search parameters > >back to their default state?

I just wondered if there was a simple one-liner instead. :-) There ought to be. Larry > >Is there a single, one line command that puts all the Search parameters > >back to their default state?

Once you have the subroutine stashed in a global template, then clearing the Find object *is* a one-liner, just the name of the ClearFindAndReplaceParameters subroutine. The number of lines inside the subroutine is immaterial, just as the number of lines of (probably C++) code needed to create a built-in function in Word itself is immaterial. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org >Hi Jay, > [quoted text clipped - 32 lines] >> Jay Freedman >> Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
