This dosn't work with multiple selection

[rob]

Sub ShowSelection()
Dim strText As String
strText = Selection.Text
MsgBox strText
End SubThis just shows the latest selected text.What I have to do to get
multiple selection?

You can't. Multiple selection seems to have been a bit of a design cludge,
and isn't exposed to VBA.

The official documentation of this is at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=288424. Although the article says
it applies to Word 2002, nothing has changed in this area in Word 2003
or 2007.

Hi Rob,

if you really need something like multiselect,
you could use highlighting to programm a workaround,
or any other kind of formatting, that isn't used in
your doc otherwise.
