Hi,

I have try to use selecttext but what I don't understand is what is this second parameter:

quote:

---

expression.SelectText(ByRef pxnField As XMLDOMNode, [ByVal varViewContext As Variant)

---

It's explain like this:

quote:

---

varViewContext Optional Variant. The ID of the control that is used for the context, which is an element with the specified view context of xd:CtrlId.

---

But I don't understand what does it mean (possibly because I'm French)?
I have try to put a null and the name of the button who launch this event in string format (CTRL4_5) but that send me always an error.

If I try with Type.Missing that work!!!!!

But what is this parameter ?

original article:

Can you explain me what is this parameter?
In C# this parameter is required but in Jscript there is optionnal (If you need to use it in Jscript you can declare: Missing.Value).

Thanks for your feedback

Not sure I have an answer for you. But using Type.Missing is the appropriate solution.
