Urgent help need for line break macro plssssssss

Hi everybody,

I just thought somebody can help me to create a macro with following
functions.

I have some text document each has two potions

-HEAD-

-BODY-

---------SAMPLE----------

based fuel cells have earned him such accolades
-NAME- ***


-BODY-

I said this years ago and I see no reason to change my mind: The
family-owned, garaged vehicle is the last vehicle that's going to
get a fuel cell. Fuel cells are still 30 times the cost of what
they need to be for the automotive market. We will need to have
huge experimental fleets, where we will put hundreds of people in
controlled environments and see what they do with these vehicles.
Are people going to be buying them and taking them apart to see ho
they work? What sort of problems are we going to create? I doubt
that I will ever see a hydrogen car for personal consumption in a
showroom. But I am certainly going to struggle to stay alive long
enough to see the fleets change--army vehicles, taxis, trucks and

----------------------SAMPLE END-----------

G'day "Thejan Mendis" <tmendis@textcentric.lk>,

do a find on a keyword that starts section 2

define two ranges, part1 and part2 based on the start of that find

part1 = doc.start - find.start and part2 is find.start - doc.end

iterate

dim para as paragraph
for each para in part1.paragraphs
if len(para.range.text)>70 then....



"Thejan Mendis" <tmendis@textcentric.lk> was spinning this yarn:
