What does this WordBasic statement do?

[phpons]

Hi all,

I need to understand what this piece of WordBasic code do, in order to
translate it to vba.

Dim Q As Object
Set Q = WordBasic.DialogRecord.EditFind(False)
WordBasic.CurValues.EditFind Q

I cant' find any information neither in the VBA help nor in the
WordBasic help file.

Thanks in advance, if you could help me.

Regards,

Philippe

It creates an object, Q, containing the current values in the Find Dialog.

For example, if you added "Msgbox Q.Find" after it you would see the last
string you looked for, if any.

The snippet you've posted doesn't show how Q is later used so I can't really
say much more.

Note also that some WordBasic commands do not translate directly to vba,
which is why they are still occasionally used.
