Find a bullet in Word2003

[Paul]

Hi,

Word2003, VSTO 2005, C# (VS.NET 2005)

We're trying to verify that there is a bullet where we are finding a bullet
style. It appears that a bullet in Word2003 is a graphic, and our feeble
attempts to verify that it is there using code have not been successful.

We can easily determine whether there is a bullet style, but this refers to
the text, not the actual bullet. Is there a way to determine if the acutal
bullet is present?

Has anyone encountered this one before? If you need more information,
please let me know. I'm not sure whether the above is clear, or whether this
is the right forum.

Thanks in advance,
Paul

More info:
We tried this:


string BULLET = ((char)9679).ToString();
if (rng.Paragraphs[j].Range.FormattedText.Text.StartsWith(BULLET))
.....
OR
string BULLET = ((char)9679).ToString();
if (rng.Paragraphs[j].Range.Text.StartsWith(BULLET))
.....

Both of them didn't work and seem to be unable to 'see' the bullet.

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,

Maybe try

Dim sBullet as String
sBullet=rng.Paragraphs(j).Range.ListFormat.ListString
