Select an index in a .doc

[jean-paul.bataille]

Hi,

I have a .doc with 3 indexes, each one is determined by switch \f "A"
or "B" or "C", according to its contents.

I want to select only the "C" index, in order to work on
programmatically.

How can i do this job ?

Thanks,
Jean-Paul

If we're talking about the actual list, this is generated by an INDEX
field. So you should be able to loop through all the fields in a given
range (this could be the entire document range) and check whether the
'\f "A"' is in the string returned by the Code property. If it is,
you've found the field. The field's Result property should return the
Range, on which you can work. (But note that any changes you make will
be lost as soon as the field updates!)
