CTextRange2.MoveEndWhilemethod
Moves the end of the range either *Count* characters or just past all contiguous characters that are found in the set of characters specified by *Cset*, whichever is less.
Syntax
FUNCTION MoveEndWhile (BYVAL Cset AS VARIANT PTR, BYVAL Count AS LONG = tomForward) AS LONGParameters
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
Cset | The character set to use in the match. This could be an explicit string of characters or a character-set index. For more information, see Character Match Sets. | |
Count | Maximum number of characters to move past. The default value is tomForward, which searches to the end of the story. If Count is greater than zero, the search moves forward (toward the end of the story). If Count is less than zero, the search moves backward (toward the beginning of the story). If Count is zero, the end position is unchanged. |
Return value
The actual number of characters that the end is moved.
Description
Moves the end of the range either Count characters or just past all contiguous characters that are found in the set of characters specified by Cset, whichever is less.
Remarks
If the new end precedes the old start, the new start is set equal to the new end.
The motion described by MoveEndWhile is logical rather than geometric. That is, motion is toward the end or toward the start of a story. Depending on the language, moving to the end of the story could be moving left or moving right.
For more information, see Move.
