TextRanges Interface
Contains a TextRange object for each of the tagged subexpressions from a search pattern. TextRanges is also used to find where a box selection intersects each line of text.

'Usage
Dim instance As TextRanges
[GuidAttribute("B6422E9C-9EFD-4F87-BDDC-C7FD8F2FD303")]
public interface TextRanges : IEnumerable
[GuidAttribute(L"B6422E9C-9EFD-4F87-BDDC-C7FD8F2FD303")]
public interface class TextRanges : IEnumerable
public interface TextRanges extends IEnumerable
Remarks
A TextRanges collection is returned from a search operation when the search pattern is a regular expression with tagged subexpressions. The TextRanges collection contains a TextRange object for each of the tagged subexpressions.
Also, TextRanges are used to get box selections from the TextSelection object if you need to determine where the box selection intersects each line.
Examples
Sub TextRangeExample(ByVal dte As EnvDTE.DTE)
Dim objTxtSel As TextSelection
Dim colRanges As TextRanges
Dim objRange As TextRange
Dim objEP As EditPoint
objTxtSel = dte.ActiveDocument.Selection
colRanges = objTxtSel.TextRanges
For Each objRange In colRanges
objRange.StartPoint.Insert("/*")
objRange.EndPoint.Insert("*/")
Next
End Sub
public void TextRangeExample(_DTE dte)
{
TextSelection ts;
TextRanges trs;
ts = (TextSelection)dte.ActiveDocument.Selection;
trs = ts.TextRanges;
MessageBox.Show (trs.Count.ToString ());
foreach (TextRange tr in trs)
{
tr.StartPoint.Insert ("/*");
tr.EndPoint.Insert ("*/");
}
}
