how to get the VALUE of an OUTLINENUMBER (word / macro in VB)

Hi,

I am currently working on a VB macro which has to get references in Word documents in order to make a traceability matrix.

My problem comes from a document, in which the references are Outlinenumbers in a column containing this outlinenumber list. I have to get the value of the cells of this column, but these outlinenumbers (auto-incremented numbers) are neither strings nor numbers... I don t know the type and then I don t know how to get the value.

Any idea ? that would be great because i m currently stopped in my internship because of that.

Regards,

Cal.

Hi,

Move this thread from Visual Basic Language Forum, this forum supports Visual Basic.NET (7, 7.1, 8, ...) issues only, so, your VBA question is an off-topic here and this isn't the best place to ask it. You can get better answers about your question from VBA support forum.

Best regards,

Riquel.
