    How can i extract text from a word document TextBox

    i have been working on word Document files.

    each document has same text format.

    i m using the code below to extract text from it,



    Code:
     
    
    Dim sFileName As String 'Name of files within the folder will be stored 
    Dim i As Integer 'This will count the files read***
    Dim wrd As Word.Application
    Dim wrdCount As Long 'Number of characters within the file
        'Get the first file with extension "DOC"  ***
                    sFileName = Dir$("C:\Virology\*.DOC") '***
        Do While sFileName <> "" '***
                Set wrd = New Word.Application 'Create obj of word application
                wrd.Visible = False
                wrd.Documents.Open "C:\Virology\" & sFileName
                wrdCount = wrd.Documents(1).Characters.Count
               Text1.Text = Text1.Text & vbCrLf & i & wrd.Documents(1).Range(0, wrdCount).Text
                wrd.Documents(1).Close
                Set wrd = Nothing
               sFileName = Dir$ '***
               i = i + 1
        Loop




    This works good for all the characters in the document but the problem rises when word textbox appears in the document.
