How VBA selects text, tables in a Word document

The Select method can be used with a variety of objects, such as bookmark, Field, Range, and Table objects.

A: The following example selects the first table in the active document

Sub selecttable ()

Activedocument.tables (1). Select

End Sub

B: The following example selects the first field in the active document

Sub Selectfield ()

Activedocument.fields (1). Select

End Sub

C: The following example selects the first four paragraphs in the active document

The Range method creates a Range object that references the first four paragraphs, and then applies the Select method to the Range object.

Sub Selectrange ()

Dim Rngparagraphs as Range

Set rngparagraphs = ActiveDocument.Range (start:=activedocument.paragraphs (1). Range.Start, End:=activedocument.paragraphs (4). Range.End)

Rngparagraphs.select

End Sub

D: The following command selects the first word in the active document

Sub Selectfirstword ()

Activedocument.words (1). Select

End Sub
