Do Search from the code

[anti_g]

In an open document I do the following

Code: Select all

    Dim textForSearch as String  
    Dim vArr(2) As Variant
    vArr(0) = 57636
    vArr(1) = textForSearch
    vDataIn = vArr

    myPDF.DoVerb "", "ExecuteCommand", vDataIn, vDataOut, 0 'Find
    myPDF.DoVerb "", "ExecuteCommand", 32987, 0, 0  'findsearch

with the result that the search pane is open and the text I look for is highlighted. How can I trigger the Search button so that all occurrences are listed below in the search pane?

Sorry, but ActiveX does not allow you to do this..

is it now possible to search from the code on the new builds ???

For now there are no methods to control search panel. But you can use usual search via code.

Hi Corwin,

How can I do ?

Thanks.

In JS for web you can use next code:

Code: Select all

var objArray = new ActiveXObject("PDFXCviewAx.CoPDFXCargs");
objArray.add(57636);
objArray.add("Text to find");

PDFView.DoVerb("", "ExecuteCommand", objArray.Data, 0, 0);

HTH

Hi,

Thanks for reply. But it don't work. I tried to run it using RunJavaScript function and directly using browser internet explorer !

I obain an error like "Element not found" at this line "objArray.add(57636);"

It works well. Thank you. I just want to know how can I dispaly serach pannel with links. Like "manual search" ?

Is it possible to send me more inforamtion about parameters to pass to objArray ? I look for parametre to display the pannel with search results (like when we click on "Search Now" button).

Thank you for help.

Next code will show search panel:

Code: Select all

PDFView.SetProperty('View.Panes["Search"].Visible', 1, 0);

But for now we don’t have any methods to control search using this panel via code.

Hi Corwin,

It's exactly what I do to display search panel. But the problem is how to click on the "Search now" button to display result in the search panel.

Thanks.
