[sachien]

Hi All

I am using word object in my appllication to implement find replace functonality.

The problem is that all the desired words are gerring replaced fine,but the words which are inside the textbox in the word document are not getting replaced.

Do Any one have idea how to solve this?

Those textboxes are ActiveX control or Form control. You need to write a function to search those
since they dont get searched with the standard .Find or .Replace methods.

This will really help me.

Use the Me keyword to access an ActiveX control like a TextBox.

Private Sub SearchMe()
    Me.TextBox1.Text = "Changed Text From Code!"
End Sub

The text box i m referring to is not a visulabasic control.

This text box refers to textbox in the word document.

PLEASE SEE THE WORD FILE ATTACHED

Are you trying to create a mailmerge document? If so the "<< >>" are not the correct characters to
designate a merge field. You dont need to add a textbox for this. Use the MailMerge toolbar to create a MM document.

I Did that by using StoryRanges

Storyrangges fin al the shapes ,textpox etc in the word documment

Yes, but the "<< >>" chars are not for mail merge fields.
