MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / September 2005Do you now Object name?
Can somebody tell name of object for multiselections? For example: I select first and fifth word in a paragraf. How can I get it? Selection.Words.Count give 1. Why? How can I get real number of the words?

Yes. I select only first and fifth words. Then I want take last word in selection. The main task is more wide: User select some rows (for example 1st, 5th and 7th only, i.e. 3 rows) in a table, then copy it and paste. As result we must obtain a table, but we obtain some paragraphs. I want write macros for this operations, but don't know how get access to parts of multiselection. Alexander was telling us: Alexander nous racontait que : > "Jean-Guy Marcil" ?????: > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > write macros for this operations, but don't know how get access to > parts of multiselection. The multiselection isn't really supported in VBA. It usually only deals with the last selection in the multiselection. In your case, since you want to copy/paste, there is a solution. Try something like: '_______________________________________ Dim myRge As Range Dim ColCount As Long If Selection.Information(wdWithInTable) Then ColCount = Selection.Tables(1).Columns.Count Else MsgBox "Selection must be in a table.", vbCritical, "Error" Exit Sub End If Set myRge = ActiveDocument.Range myRge.Collapse wdCollapseEnd Selection.Copy myRge.Paste myRge.ConvertToTable wdSeparateByParagraphs, , ColCount '_______________________________________ See the ConvertToTable method in the VBA help for more info on the parameters you can use to format the table. Also, if you have merged cells, the results may be a bit differently from the original selection, and so will it be different if there are paragraph marks in the original cells...
