Public Function LessThan (Point As TextPoint) As Boolean

Parameters

Point: TextPoint

Required. A TextPoint to compare to the calling point object.

Returns

Boolean

A Boolean value indicating true if Point has a greater AbsoluteCharOffset property value compared to the calling point object's AbsoluteCharOffset property.

Remarks

LessThan throws a ArgumentException if Point is not in the same document as the calling point object. With the VirtualPoint object, LessThan compares the virtual positions if the argument is a VirtualPoint. Otherwise, it compares the "physical" positions.
