Examples

This example finds the first occurrence of the word "مــــحـــمـــــد" in an Arabic document matching kashidas.

      Dim objDocument As Document

Set objDocument = ActiveDocument
With objDocument.Find
    .Clear
    .FindText = "مــــحـــمـــــد"
    .MatchKashida = True
    .Execute
End With

    

This example follows from the previous one except that kashidas will not be matched. Therefore the words "محمد" or "مــــحـــمـــــد" will both be found because kashidas will be ignored.

      Dim objDocument As Document

Set objDocument = ActiveDocument
With objDocument.Find
    .Clear
    .FindText = "مــــحـــمـــــد"
    .MatchKashida = False
    .Execute
End With
