Range location versus character count

I thought the MS Word Range was defined by starting and ending character
count and the story type. Yet, I get different values of "vEndChar" for the
two numbered lines below. Anybody know why?---Jared L

Set vDoc=ActiveDocument
Set vRange=vDoc.range(0,0)

Yes, the range is redefined to be the found character. But shouldn't the
number of characters from the beginning of the document to the found
character be equal to the position of the found character?

No. The range position includes things (such as end-of-cell markers) that
are not included in the character count.
