Hi
Anyone who could help in differentatiate between Relative line number and Absolute Linenumber. Seems a mistake at the when running the following code from VBA Express : Word - Get Line and Paragraph Number If one observes the Relative and Absolute line number which displays the same when macro is executed. If absolute line number is the Exact position of the actual line number of the document where the cursor is on current line position then why relative line number is same as absolute. Should not relative line number be like for eg. Line 2 of Paragraph 3. Ideally i would prefer to get Paragraph Number and Respective Line no of that Paragraph ir if iam on Paragrpah 3 then if the cursor is on line2 of Paragraph Then it should Display Paragraph 3 Absolute/Relative Line Number 2. Although Absolute/Relative Line Number 10 is displayed with following result with below code i get the following result Quote:

Code:
Option Explicit
Sub WhereAmI()
MsgBox "Paragraph number: " & GetParNum(Selection.Range) & vbCrLf & _
"Absolute line number: " & GetAbsoluteLineNum(Selection.Range) & vbCrLf & _
"Relative line number: " & GetLineNum(Selection.Range)
End Sub
Function GetParNum(r As Range) As Integer
Dim rParagraphs As Range
Dim CurPos As Long
r.Select
CurPos = ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\startOfSel").Start
Set rParagraphs = ActiveDocument.Range(Start:=0, End:=CurPos)
GetParNum = rParagraphs.Paragraphs.Count
End Function
Function GetLineNum(r As Range) As Integer
'relative to current page
GetLineNum = r.Information(wdFirstCharacterLineNumber)
End Function
Function GetAbsoluteLineNum(r As Range) As Integer
Dim i1 As Integer, i2 As Integer, Count As Integer, rTemp As Range
r.Select
Do
i1 = Selection.Information(wdFirstCharacterLineNumber)
Selection.GoTo what:=wdGoToLine, which:=wdGoToPrevious, Count:=1, Name:=""
Count = Count + 1
i2 = Selection.Information(wdFirstCharacterLineNumber)
Loop Until i1 = i2
r.Select
GetAbsoluteLineNum = Count
End Function
