Text.ExportToFile

Sub ExportToFile(FileName As String, StartIndex As Long, Count As Long, [IndexingType As cdrTextIndexingType = cdrCharacterIndexing])

Member of Text

The ExportToFile method saves a portion of a text object to a text file.


Parameter	Description
FileName	Specifies the full path and filename of the file
StartIndex	Specifies the first text object in the text range
Count	Specifies the number of items in the text range
IndexingType	Specifies the type of text to be indexed, and returns a value of cdrTextIndexingType. The indexing type can be character, word, or paragraph. This parameter is optional, and its default value is cdrCharacterIndexing (0).

The following VBA example saves the second-to-fifth paragraphs to a text file, and it then inserts that text at the beginning of the text object.

Sub Test()

ActiveShape.Text.ExportToFile "C:\Temp.txt", 2, 4, cdrParagraphIndexing

ActiveShape.Text.ImportFromFile "C:\Temp.txt", 1, cdrParagraphIndexing

End Sub
