Hi Bjørn,

How do I create a Range based on a style, eg. Heading 1, Normal ??

You don't really give us a lot of information to go on, here... You
should always mention which version of Word (I'm assuming it's Word,
and not Excel) is involved. And can you explain in a bit more detail
what you need to do with such a range?

Based on what you say, my reply would have to be: use Range.Find to
locate the next instance of the style. If Find.Found is true, then
the Range now contains what was found.

Sorry for the lack of information !

Software involved is : word 2003 Prof. Edition.

What I need to do is, to search for a style, eg. bold, Heading 1 or
whatever,
once found, I want to append an XML childnode to the text of found style.

OK, what you need is Word's FIND property of the Range object.
Roughly:

Do

With rng.Find
.Text = ""
.Format = True
.Style = "Style name"
.Execute
bFound = .Found
If bFound = True Then
'rng is now the found instance of the style range, do what
you need to do here
End If
End With

Loop While bFound
