Hello
I have to select a word in a text and i think that a dll can do that for me
like Find(text,word)
and returning the text with the selected word

do you know a dll for this pb?

Thanks

i don't know of any existing dll that does this, but i could give you an idea so that you can create your own dll, or perhaps place it in a module or class...


the idea would be to take the word to be searched, and get its first letter, then search the text. when the 1st letter is encountered, then go back to the word and get the next letter. if it doesn't match, then go back to the first letter, then continue searching... do this until the word is completed...

the problem would be if there were to exist many words of that kind.

could you explain instead what you need this code for?

there could be another way to do this task.

i got this from somewhere in the net... hope it helps you.

don't know a dll that does this... but of course you could manipulate this and insert it in a module, class... create your dll!

Dim ErrCnt As Long Dim Swords(5) As String Dim ErrFnd As Boolean Private Sub Form_Load() 'Words in array to search for     Swords(0) = "these"     Swords(1) = "are"     Swords(2) = "words"     Swords(3) = "to"     Swords(4) = "be"     Swords(5) = "searched" End Sub   Private Sub Command1_Click() 'set trigger to false ErrFnd = False ' loop from swords(0) to swords(5)       For x = 0 To 5 'if one of the swords is found           If Instr(1, Text1, Swords(x)) > 0 Then ' activate flag              ErrFnd = True ' Show result              MsgBox "Found Word " & Swords(x) 'count how many words              ErrCnt = ErrCnt + 1 ' end if statement           End If ' end loop       Next 'if the flag was activated If ErrFnd = True Then 'show how many words were found MsgBox ErrCnt & "  Words found" ' set the word count back to 0 ErrCnt = 0 ' end if statement End If End Sub

see yah!

I don't know a dll that does this,but you can use some c# word component to search a word ,like Spire.Doc,I use it long time, quit good. May help to you.
