Ana--

I'm assuming that you mean a text search--in that case, the first item of the selection will be of type Text (unless it's an InsertionPoint), so:



Rem Assuming the selection is in the variable "mySelection" and the string you want to search for is "myString" 
Set myFoundItems = mySelection.Item(1).Search(myString) 




Thanks,

Ole
