I'm not sure it would work, and things would depend on what format the
message was in, but if it's an HTML message you can get HTMLBody and then
work with the HTMLDocument object to try to find the selection. Word
wouldn't help since the item wouldn't be displayed using WordMail.

Redemption (www.dimastr.com/redemption) might help if you get the item and
use GetInspector to get an Inspector object for it and then get a
Redemption.SafeInspector for the Inspector. Then you might be able to use
the SafeInspector.SelText property to return the selected text.
