MS-Word get line number

[Jeff Barnes]

Is there a way to get a line number for a given text string?

I want to search for <DAT:SIG> and insert a picture where <DAT:SIG> is.

I can do the search with:

Code: Select all  Expand view

FUNCTION WordPicture( oSel, cSrc, cRpl, oWord )
    LOCAL oRng := oSel:Document:Content
     oRng:Find:MatchWildcards:= .t.
        IF AT( cSrc, oRng:Text ) = 0; RETURN .F.; ENDIF
       WHILE oRng:Find:Execute( cSrc )
         oRng:Text = ""
         oRng:Collapse( wdCollapseEnd )
       ENDDO
RETURN .T.
 

And can insert the picture with:

Code: Select all  Expand view

oWord:ActiveDocument:Shapes:AddPicture( cRpl, .T., .T., 1, 1, 150, 80)
 

I can go to a line with:

Code: Select all  Expand view

#define wdGoToAbsolute 1
#define wdGoToLine 3
oword:selection:goto(wdGoToLine, wdGoToAbsolute, nLineNumber)
 

I just need to know how to get the right value for nLineNumber based on the location of <DAT:SIG>.
