    word and 'range'

    I want to write to different lines in a word document, but am not sure how the .range or .selection.Text works.

    Below is some code I have that is currently working.

    VB Code:
    1. Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
    2.         Dim wdApp As New Word.Application
    3.         Dim wdDoc As Word.Document = New Word.Document
    4.         wdDoc.Select()
    5.  
    6.         If wdApp Is Nothing Then
    7.             wdApp = New Word.Application
    8.         End If
    9.  
    10.         wdApp.Selection.Font.Bold = True
    11.         wdApp.Selection.Font.Color = Word.WdColor.wdColorRed
    12.         wdApp.Selection.Font.Name = "AvantGarde Bk BT"
    13.         wdApp.Selection.Font.Size = 10
    14.         wdApp.Selection.Text = "Testtext"
    15.         wdApp.Selection.Text = "Text1" & ControlChars.CrLf & "Text2" & ControlChars.CrLf & "Text3" & ControlChars.CrLf & "Text4"
    16.         wdDoc.SaveAs(Application.StartupPath & "\yadda.doc")
    17.         wdDoc.Saved = True        
    18.         wdApp.Quit()
    19.     End Sub

    But I'm not sure how?

    How do you (can you) write to a specfic line in a word document?

    You could use the .Find method to locate the range and then replace the text with what you want. Also, if its an entire paragraph then you can use the paragraphs collection.
