[RESOLVED] Replace All text in MS Word Document - does not work properly

before i had problems with the publisher file, but well I just converted the publisher file to a word document... as I could actually do something with it...

but now i've ran into another problem...

when I do a find and replace, it will go through all the normal texts fine... but when it comes to text within a text box (drawn within word), it only does the first one and just ignores the rest..

i'm using the same code:

Code:

---


Dim word As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application
        Dim doc As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document
        Try
            doc = word.Documents.Open("d:\test.docx")
            doc.Activate()
            Dim myStoryRange As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Range
            For Each myStoryRange In doc.StoryRanges
                With myStoryRange.Find
                    .Text = txtWORD_Find1.Text
                    .Replacement.Text = txtWORD_ReplaceWith1.Text
                    .Wrap = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdFindWrap.wdFindContinue
                    .Execute(Replace:=Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdReplace.wdReplaceAll)
                End With
            Next myStoryRange

            'For Each myStoryRange In doc.StoryRanges
            ' With myStoryRange.Find
            ' .Text = txtWORD_Find2.Text
            ' .Replacement.Text = txtWORD_ReplaceWith2.Text
            ' .Wrap = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdFindWrap.wdFindContinue
            ' .Execute(Replace:=Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdReplace.wdReplaceAll)
            ' End With
            'Next myStoryRange

            doc.SaveAs("d:\test1.docx")
            word.Visible = True
        Catch ex As Exception
            MessageBox.Show("Error accessing Word document.")
        End Try
