[libreoffice-users] Re: Macro code to highlight a field on a Form

Hello,

All you need is the MRI extension.
> http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center/mri-uno-object-inspection-tool

Within seconds it can point you to method
> http://www.openoffice.org/api/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/awt/XTextComponent.html#setSelection

The .setSelection(aSelection) method takes a struct specifying the start 
position and the end position of your text selection.

MRI also generates snippets like this while using it:

> Sub Snippet(Optional oInitialTarget As Object)
>   Dim oSource As Object
>   Dim aSelection As New com.sun.star.awt.Selection
>
>   oSource = oInitialTarget.Source
>   aSelection = oSource.getSelection()
> End Sub

Hope this helps,
A.S.
