sMessage = sM ActiveDocument.SelText;
MessageBox(sMessage, VersionText, 0);

TabIndex
Description
Gets and sets the tab index of the document tab.

Text
Syntax
Text: OleString
Description Gets and sets the complete document text.
Methods
BeginUpdate
Syntax
BeginUpdate();
Description Turns off screen updating for the active document. This is useful if your script needs
to make several changes to the active document at once—turning off screen
updating during the procedure might significantly speed up the process. To turn on
updating again, use
EndUpdate
.
Use
BeginUpdate...EndUpdate
with caution. If you fail to call
EndUpdate
after a call
to BeginUpdate , or if the script crashes before EndUpdate is called, the user cannot
view any changes made in the editor.
