Selecting Current Revision Range

[Sonny Maou]

How do I highlight or select the current revision item?

For instance, I have a sentence that has been deleted and shows as
struck-through. If I position my cursor within that sentence, how do I
remove that revision (and just that revision) with VBA (I'll assign the
macro to a keystroke)?

The key is, I can't determine how to reject just that one revision
without first having the user make a selection of text.

Thanks!

Hi Sonny,

The following will undo the revision in which the selection is located:

Selection.Range.Revisions(1).Reject

Hey, Doug! Thanks for that suggestion. If I have a paragraph which I've
deleted and shows as struck-through, then I run that code from, say, the
middle of the paragraph, only the strikethrough that appears after the
cursor actually gets rejected. The deleted text prior to the cursor
remains. If I position the cursor at the start of the paragraph, then
run the code, the entire thing gets rejected. Is there a way to
automagically position the cursor at the start of that revision?

I'll simply inform the user that they must be at the start of the
revision to remove it entirely... unless you can figure out how to get
rid of the whole thing.

Being inside a table apparently causes havoc. Is there a way to do it
right in a table cell?
