How to get a range object for a certain page?

[cym]

I am building a Word application that would retrieve the text for a
certain page. How could I do it without using Selection object, but
with Range object? Ideally, I would like to get the Range object only
in the main text (The StoryRanges type would be wdMainTextStory).

Thanks for your help in advance!

In Word, you really cannot work directly with pages. What you can do is make
use of a predefined bookmark to return the range object for the current
page:

Set r = ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\Page").Range

For more on predefined bookmarks, see this KB article (which was written for
Word 2000, but it is relevant for newer versions as well):
