How can I move my insert point to a known range (end or start)? Thanks

Hi,

What application?

If Word, I'd look at the Collapse method.

Hope This Helps, PH.

OR if you just want to go to the Start (and Collapsed):

Selection.Start = _
      [i]range[/i].Start

as in:

Selection.Start = _
      ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("yadda").Range.Start

Works exactly the same for End.

If you are using Section.Range it is a little trickier.

Selection.Start = _
      ActiveDocument.Sections(1).Range.End

moves the Selection to the start of Section 2.

Selection.Start = _
      ActiveDocument.Sections(1).Range.End [COLOR=red][b]- 1[/b][/color red]

moves the Selection the actual End of Section 1 - just before the section break...if there is one. If there is only Section 1, then the Selection is moved to just before the final paragraph mark.
