I'm getting the error code

Words.Words cannot be indexed because it has no default property


When i try to execute the code below - 


Dim Para As Word.Paragraph, rng As Word.Range, iLvl As Long
If Para.Range.Words(1) = "(" and Para.Range.Words(2) Like "[0-9]" and Para.Range.Words(3) = ")" Then rng.ParagraphFormat.Style = "STYLE1"



I'm converting from an old VBA Macro so apologies if this is obvious but I can't make this work.

The objective of the code is to check the first 3 characters of a line in word to see if they conform to a certain format and if so apply a style to the paragraph.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

James

Hello James,

Try replacing Words(index) with Words.Item(index).Text.
