stev #4 / 10	how to find the current cursor line number I have called: Selection.Information(wdFirstCharacterLineNumber) return -1 for line number. I have set Pagination to TRUE and Pagination to FALSE. But I still get -1 for line number. What's the problems?

Terry VanDuze #6 / 10	how to find the current cursor line number Im not sure why it is not updating going from one view to another, but try using the Application.ScreenRefresh after your code.(before end sub of course) HTH Quote: > >I have called: > >Selection.Information(wdFirstCharacterLineNumber) > >return -1 for line number. > it works only in layout-view. > if you work with xp sometimes it doesn't work there, but if you change > to normal-view and then back , it will work again

BTW: has somebody an answer why Selection.Information(wdFirstCharacterLineNumber) is changing the the line number in the middle of the line when a picture exists in the line? I have a one page example available, who needs an example. MW

As I know: never It doesnt make sense, because the line break is dependent of the window size

stev #10 / 10	how to find the current cursor line number Hi Terry, Sometimes, I got wrong value, such as -1. From help file - "If the Pagination property is False or the Draft property is True, returns - 1." Any easy way to reset all these setting? Thanks. steve Quote: >-----Original Message----- >Steve >Try this >MsgBox Selection.Information(wdFirstCharacterLineNumber) >HTH >Terry V >> If cursor move to any position in the Word file.
