Defined in

Syntax

count& = notesRichTextRange.FindAndReplace( target$ , replacement$ , [ options& ] )

Parameters

For purposes of navigation, this method finds an element of type RTELEM_TYPE_TEXTRUN. The current position becomes the first character of the search string within the element (not the first character of the element).

All navigation markers in the RTitem, including ranges, are invalidated after a FindAndReplace operation. A new range must be created with SetBegin/SetEnd if you want to use additional RichTextRange methods.
