Section in the bullet and numbering
Hi, I wonder if i can get some helps here. In the bullets and numbering, we can choose the one with the number format "Section 1.". My question here is whether there is a way to capture the number "1" using VBA codes. For example, if we're at Section 3. , the code will return 3. I have tried to use the following code but to no avail. Selection.Collapse Direction:=wdCollapseStart MsgBox "The insertion point is in section " & _ Selection.Information(wdActiveEndSectionNumber) It looks like it returns the page number. I use office word 03. Thank you in advance -- associates76 |

Section in the bullet and numbering
Hi Stefan, Thank you for your reply. From what i can understand from the article, it's not possible to keep track of the numbering system in the outline numbering. I tested it by using the following code MsgBox Selection.Paragraphs(1).OutlineLevel -- this actually returns the level number and if i have the following Section 1. Some texts -- it returns 1 1.1. Some texts -- it returns 2 some texts -- it returns 10 1.1.1. Some texts -- it returns 3 Whereas what i'm after is Section 1. Some texts -- returns 1 Section 2. Some texts -- returns 2 and so on I suppose what i really wanted done is not doable Is there any better ways i can use to achieve my goal here? any suggestions?

Use the ListValue property to get the number assigned to a list item. For
example, consider the following list: Article I. Paragraph text here. Article II. Paragraph text here. When the insertion point is inside the second item, the following code: Debug.Print Selection.Range.ListFormat.ListValue would print 2 (to the Immediate window of the Visual Basic Editor). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "associates76" wrote in message ...
