Dear fellow scripters,

I have the problem that I add text in front of existing text content in a
paragraph with this code of line:

myActualParagraph.TextContents = Me.txtFillText.Text &
myActualParagraph.TextContents

Directly afterwards I try to access the TextContents and Characters of this
paragraph, but ID refuses to show me the new content even when in the actual
document I can see the made change, it only shows me the old content before
the addition.
So it seems only when I change the paragraph the alteration of the text
content is reflected by the object model provided my InDesign... can any VB
programmer out there counterproof this issue?
I can do a workaround to switch on the paragraphs forward and then directly
back, but this isn't the style of programming i prefer.

Jens
