SYMPTOMS
========

When you use the Visual Basic for Applications Selection Property to return text
from a sentence, the paragraph mark is not included. By contrast, when you use
the Sentences collection to return text of a sentence, the paragraph mark is
included.

The following macro demonstrates this behavior. The first message box will
display 0 (zero) indicating that no paragraph mark is contained within the
selection. The second message box will display 12 indicating that a paragraph
mark is found within the selection whose position within the selection is the
twelfth character.

      Sub SentencesCollection()
         ActiveDocument.Range.Text = "Sentence 1." & vbCr & "Sentence 2."
         Selection.MoveRight wdSentence, 1, wdExtend
         MsgBox InStr(1, Selection, vbCr)
         MsgBox InStr(1, Selection.Sentences(1), vbCr)
      End Sub
