[Solved] Searched string not found

[Mogens@rm.dk]

I am using an subrouting that includes searching a document
I use the following code:

Code: Select all

dim document   as object
dim dispatcher as object
document   = ThisComponent.CurrentController.Frame
dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper")
dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:GoToStartOfDoc", "", 0, Array())
dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:GoToStartOfDoc", "", 0, Array())

dim args2(18) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
args2(0).Name = "SearchItem.StyleFamily"
args2(0).Value = 2
args2(1).Name = "SearchItem.CellType"
args2(1).Value = 0
args2(2).Name = "SearchItem.RowDirection"
args2(2).Value = true
args2(3).Name = "SearchItem.AllTables"
args2(3).Value = false
args2(4).Name = "SearchItem.Backward"
args2(4).Value = false
args2(5).Name = "SearchItem.Pattern"
args2(5).Value = false
args2(6).Name = "SearchItem.Content"
args2(6).Value = false
args2(7).Name = "SearchItem.AsianOptions"
args2(7).Value = false
args2(8).Name = "SearchItem.AlgorithmType"
args2(8).Value = 0
args2(9).Name = "SearchItem.SearchFlags"
args2(9).Value = 0
args2(10).Name = "SearchItem.SearchString"
args2(10).Value = "Giv besked, hvis du ikke kan komme"
args2(11).Name = "SearchItem.ReplaceString"
args2(11).Value = ""
args2(12).Name = "SearchItem.Locale"
args2(12).Value = 255
args2(13).Name = "SearchItem.ChangedChars"
args2(13).Value = 2
args2(14).Name = "SearchItem.DeletedChars"
args2(14).Value = 2
args2(15).Name = "SearchItem.InsertedChars"
args2(15).Value = 2
args2(16).Name = "SearchItem.TransliterateFlags"
args2(16).Value = 256
args2(17).Name = "SearchItem.Command"
args2(17).Value = 0
args2(18).Name = "Quiet"
args2(18).Value = true

dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:ExecuteSearch", "", 0, args2())

The subsequest working of the subroutine depends on whether the search string is found
So I need some kind of response from the search, found or not-found, that I can use in an if ..then .. else statement

Thank you for your help

To perform your task, you do not need so much lines of code

Code: Select all

Sub findAndDoSomething
Dim oSDescr As Variant
Dim oResults As Variant
Dim oFound As Variant
Dim sText As String
Dim i As Long
	oSDescr = ThisComponent.createSearchDescriptor()
	oSDescr.setSearchString("Giv besked, hvis du ikke kan komme") ' Or what?
	oResults = ThisComponent.findAll(oSDescr)
	If IsEmpty(oResults) Or IsNull(oResults) Then Exit Sub	' Nothing to do...
	For i = 0 To oResults.getCount()-1	' Enumerate all results
		oFound = oResults.getByIndex(i)	' One of them
' Now do something
' for example sText = oFound.getString()
' or oFound.setString("It was "+(i+1)+" fragment")
' or If oFound.CharHeight <> 10 Then...Else...EndIf
	Next i
End Sub

Hi John
Thank you very much for your reply
That is just what I asked for.
Hope you find a job soon!!

the code works well, but can we extend to search a group of words?
