Hello,
I am trying to loop through all the headers in a document searching for a text string. If that string is found I would like to select it and the connected text to the left and pass the text value to a string variable so I can split and name the documents by these string values. I know this is a few parts but if you can help with any of the modules it would be much appreciated. 1. Loop through all headers 2 Search for text string, select entire word, save value to string 3. Export Page and name by string variable Any help is much appreciated. I found several sources for search and replace but the structure, ranges and object naming seems more complicated than necessary. I can provide some code that has yielded some results but seems off track. -Jeff Code:
Public Sub FindReplaceAnywhere()
Dim rngStory As Word.Range
Dim pFindTxt As String
Dim pReplaceTxt As String
Dim lngJunk As Long
Dim oShp As Shape
pFindTxt = "-IN"
'pReplaceTxt = "-IN**" 'From Sorce Code
'Fix the skipped blank Header/Footer problem
lngJunk = ActiveDocument.Sections(1).Headers(1).Range.StoryType
'Iterate through all story types in the current document
For Each rngStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
'Iterate through all linked stories
Do
SearchAndReplaceInStory rngStory, pFindTxt, pReplaceTxt
On Error Resume Next
Select Case rngStory.StoryType
Case 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11
If rngStory.ShapeRange.Count > 0 Then
For Each oShp In rngStory.ShapeRange
If oShp.TextFrame.HasText Then
SearchAndReplaceInStory oShp.TextFrame.TextRange, pFindTxt, pReplaceTxt
'FindIt oShp.TextFrame.TextRange, pFindTxt, pReplaceTxt
End If
Next
End If
Case Else
'Do Nothing
End Select
On Error GoTo 0
'Get next linked story (if any)
Set rngStory = rngStory.NextStoryRange
Loop Until rngStory Is Nothing
Next
End Sub
Public Sub SearchAndReplaceInStory(ByVal rngStory As Word.Range, ByVal strSearch As String, ByVal strReplace As String)
Dim Invoice As String
Dim rngInvoice As Range
Dim strStart As Long
Dim strEnd As Variant
'Best I could do, Prints the range of the area I want. Seems like I should be using .moveleft ?
With rngStory
If .Find.Execute(strSearch) Then Debug.Print .Start - 7 & " " & .End
End With
End Sub
I found this which seems like it should be used to select the range but I'm struggling to name the header range and actually select the text I want Code:
With Selection Set MyRange = .GoTo(wdGoToField, wdGoToPrevious) .MoveRight Unit:=wdWord, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend If Selection.Fields.Count = 1 Then Selection.Fields(1).Update End With |
