Selection.InsertBreak Type:=BreakValue
where BreakValue is one of the following values:
| BreakValue | Result | |
|---|---|---|
| wdPageBreak | Page break | |
| wdColumnBreak | Column break | |
| wdSectionBreakNextPage | Next-page section break | |
| wdSectionBreakContinuous | Continuous section break | |
| wdSectionBreakEvenPage | Even-page section break | |
| wdSectionBreakOddPage | Odd-page section break | |
| wdLineBreak | Line break |

Hi,
I would like to insert a page break on a string in MS Word.
For Example, if their is word anywhere in a Page like test, then it should be replaced with page break.
It should check all the page and insert the page where ever the word exists.
Please give me your suggestion to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Naresh
