ITextRange::MoveEndUntil method (tom.h)

Moves the range's end to the character position of the first character found that is in the set of characters specified by Cset, provided that the character is found within Count characters of the range's end.

Syntax

HRESULT MoveEndUntil(
  VARIANT *Cset,
  long    Count,
  long    *pDelta
);

Parameters

Cset

Type: VARIANT*

The character set to use in the match. This could be an explicit string of characters or a character-set index. For more information, see Character Match Sets.

Count

Type: long

Maximum number of characters to move past. The default value is tomForward, which searches to the end of the story. If Count is greater than zero, the search moves forward (toward the end of the story). If Count is less than zero, the search moves backward (toward the beginning of the story). If Count is zero, the end position is unchanged.

pDelta

Type: long*

The actual number of characters that the range end is moved, plus 1 for a match if Count is greater than zero, and –1 for a match if Count is less than zero. The value can be null.

Return value

Type: HRESULT

The method returns an HRESULT value. If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If the method fails, it returns one of the following error codes. For more information about COM error codes, see Error Handling in COM.

Remarks

If no character from the set specified by Cset is found within Count positions of the range's end, the range is left unchanged. If the new end precedes the old start, the new start is set equal to the new end.

The motion described by ITextRange::MoveEndUntil is logical rather than geometric. That is, motion is toward the end or toward the start of a story. Depending on the language, moving to the end of the story could be moving left or moving right.
