Content Property

Microsoft Word Visual Basic

Returns a Range object that represents the main document story. Read-only.

Remarks

Set mainStory = ActiveDocument.Content
Set mainStory = ActiveDocument.StoryRanges(wdMainTextStory)

This example changes the font and font size of the text in the active document to Arial 10 point.
