How to detect a certain break in a document.

[rVo]

I'm trying to replace all breaks of the type wdSectionBreakOddPage by
wdSectionBreakContinuous but I have no idea how to do this. Normally I would
look for the ascw-codes they leave in the document and create a simple
find-replace-all to do the job, but for these breaks it doesn't work as they
all get code chrw(13)

Could anyone tell me how to replace these breaks easily?

Thanks in advance.

Hi rVo

Don't think about the break; think about the section.

Try something like this (untested):

dim oSec as Word.Section

for each oSec in ActiveDocument.Sections
oSec.PageSetup.SectionStart = wdSectionContinuous
next oSec

Hope this helps.

Hi "rVo",

all get code chrw(13) ???

chr(12)!

the kind of break is defined not only by the character itself
but by pagesetup.sectionstart in addition.

Replacing is not what you are looking for.
You have to change pagesetup.sectionstart.
