When searching a character at a document, word starts again at he top of
the document. Word gives the message that he did come to the end off the
file but he places the cursor back at the top of the document. How can
we discover that we passed the end of the file. Which code in VBA tell's
us that the end off the fille was reached while searching a specifique
character.

To avoid going past the end of the file with a Find, set the Wrap property
of the Find object to WdFindStop.

The following example searches forward through the document for the word
"aspirin." If the word "aspirin" is found, it's selected. If the end of the
document is reached, the selection point doesn't move.

With Selection.Find
    .Forward = True
    .ClearFormatting
    .MatchWholeWord = True
    .MatchCase = False
    .Wrap = wdFindStop
    .Execute FindText:="aspirin"
    If .Found Then
        MsgBox "text found"
    Else
        MgsBox "text not found"
    End If
End With

Set the Wrap property of the Find object as follows:

Selection.Find.Wrap = wdFindStop
