Hi all,

I have an application that searches for entries in Worddocuments, eg " " to substitute the text with images. It always worked fine, but suddenly it
does no longer. I use the following code:

....

ole_range:=worddoc.activedocument.range(startposition,endposition);
findtext:=' matchcase:=emptyparam;
matchwholeword:=emptyparam;
matchwildcards:=emptyparam;
matchsoundslike:=emptyparam;
matchallwordforms:=emptyparam;
_forward:=emptyparam;
wrap:=emptyparam;
format:=emptyparam;
replacewith:=emptyparam;
replace:=emptyparam;
while ole_range.find.execute(findtext,
matchcase,
matchwholeword,
matchwildcards,
matchsoundslike,
matchallwordforms,
_forward,
wrap,
format,
replacewith,
replace)
....
The Worddoc-variable in the example above is the Worddocument.

If I check the ole_range variable (debug), it seems to be the correct range
(eg by using ole_range.select I can see the text is correctly selected in
the Worddocument itself). Although everything seems to be correct, the
find-method returns false (and there are entries " text).

Does anyone have any idea what has happened (I guess it has nothing to do
with my application itself, but maybe with a certain setting in Word or
other ?). Or could the Wordversion have anything to do with it (although
that hasn't changed either) ? I do not have the slightest idea why this
find-method returns false (especially because it has always worked for over
more than 2 years).

Any help or suggestion appreciated,

Glenn

Althogh using Range does not have any effect on _forward Param, nevertheless
I'd change _Forward := True.
