Word Section Index Problem

[Jose]

Hello Every one,


This is really bugging me

I Add a Section at a range by the code:

hr = m_pDoc->get_Sections(&m_pSections);

hr = m_pSections->Add(&vtRange,&_variant_t((LONG)
wdSectionContinuous),&m_pSection); //I then add many sections

m_pSection now has the reference to the section it just created.

hr = m_pSection->get_Index (&nSectionIndex); // I then ask for the
index of the range in the document.


Surprisingly i get similar values for different m_pSection !!!!



This is funny

Do help,

Can you post the actual VBA code you are using?

Jean,

Its C++ code. But its similar to how you would call your VBA code. The
issue is get_Index is giving me same values for different sections!!
and so i keep getting

"SECTIONLOOKUP: Section 2, Bookmark1 already in map!!!!"
"SECTIONLOOKUP: Section 2, Bookmark4 already in map!!!!"
"SECTIONLOOKUP: Section 2, Bookmark6 already in map!!!!"

The code is below...

Thanks for responding,

-Jose


/*

*/
void WordHelper::CreateSection(CString csBookMarkName, bool bReadOnly,
Word::SectionsPtr m_pSections)

Word::_DocumentPtr m_pDoc;

I can read your code and get a general idea of what it is doing, but I
cannot debug it as I do not know anything about C++ (Just a little about C#,
which is quite different!)

Have you checked the result to see if the document actually has all the new
sections as it should? Maybe it is a problem with the error trapping itself,
not with the execution.

If not, make sure that you are properly clearing the range you are using to
add the section break. Try not to use the equivalent of the selection object
from VBA in your code.

Sorry I cannot be of more help.
