With the ActiveDocument object it becomes clear that it's Word not Excel.

You get the error because ActiveDocument is nothing. Create a variable for
it, and if the code is for an opened email, set the variable to
Application.ActiveInspector.WordEditor, which returns a Word.Document
object.

Sorry, THere was a typo in the above...


ITs NOT word.range

Its just Range

Sub a2()
Dim rngStory As Range
For Each rngStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
With rngStory.Find
.Text = "find text"
.Replacement.Text = "I'm found"
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
End With
Next rngStory
End Sub



Does outlook 2007 recognize Range command?


Thanks..

Hi Michael,

I proceeded to include the Tools/Reference for Word,Excel,VBA etc...


I now get the following error when i execute the macro in Office 2007:

Run-time error '429':
ActiveX component can't create object

I then click Debug at the Msgbox


Further, when i put the cursor on the following line:
For Each rngStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges

it displays this tooltip error that reads:

ActiveDocument.StoryRanges=Object Variable or With Block variable not
set


Following is the code im trying to execute:

Sub a2()
Dim rngStory As Word.Range
For Each rngStory In ActiveDocument.StoryRanges
With rngStory.Find
.Text = "find text"
.Replacement.Text = "I'm found"
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
End With
Next rngStory
End Sub


Am i btw missing any other references.
Thanks,
Mahesh

The Outlook oject model doesn't know a Range object.

It's always a good idea to use the full object name, for instance
Word.Range, or Excel.Range.

So, check the code and see what library the Range object belongs to,
then
add a ref on it via Tools/References.
