Parameters

• Start
  Required Integer. The starting character position of the range or selection.

• End
  Required Integer. The ending character position of the range or selection.

Remarks

Character position values start at the beginning of the story, with the first value being 0 (zero). All characters are counted, including nonprinting characters. Hidden characters are counted even if they're not displayed.

The SetRange method redefines the starting and ending positions of an existing Range object. This method differs from the Range method, which is used to create a range, given a starting and ending position.
