Try it this way:
Code:
Sub GetAndRemoveSectionByInstanceNumber()
Dim ScnBrk As Long
With ActiveDocument.Range
With .Find
.ClearFormatting
.Replacement.ClearFormatting
.Text = "Inst#: " & ReportInstance
.Replacement.Text = ""
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindStop
.Format = False
.MatchWildcards = True
.Execute
End With
If .Find.Found = True Then
With .Duplicate
ScnBrk = .Sections(1).PageSetup.SectionStart
.Sections(1).Range.Delete
.Sections(1).PageSetup.SectionStart = ScnBrk
End With
End If
End With
End Sub
