Mark text from cursor position until next tab sign

Schill, Christia #1 / 6	Mark text from cursor position until next tab sign Hello everybody, I need to delete manually inserted headline numbers in a text. Therefore I'd like to know a command such as: mark text from actual cursor position until the next tab sign included. Any hints? Thank you very much in advance.

It's exactly what I was looking for. It's fun with these VBA commands: they look so simple and short but I always have a hell of a hard time to find them out myself if they can not be recorded by the macro recorder...

Andr #4 / 6	Mark text from cursor position until next tab sign By the way, selecting all the text from the insertion point up to and including the next tab character CAN be recorded. Manually this operation is: 1) press F8 (or double click Ext on the status bar) 2) press Tab Quote: > >Hi Christian, > >Use: > > Selection.Extend > > Selection.Extend Character:=vbTab > Dear Doug, > thank you very much for this.

Christian Schi #5 / 6	Mark text from cursor position until next tab sign Hello Andra, hello everyone, Quote: >By the way, selecting all the text from the insertion point up to and >including the next tab character CAN be recorded. Manually this operation >is: >1) press F8 (or double click Ext on the status bar) >2) press Tab very interesting! Just played around a bit with that "F8 thing". It is also possible to mark for example until the next "a" or whatever. Super, thank you. Just one more question: how to prevent that the marking exceeds the actual paragraph (headline) in case of no Tab sign being available in that paragraph. This could happen easily and would f*** up my whole text ;-(. Is there also a solution to this? Thanks in advance. Christian. -- or do I just have the wrong problem?
