Getting selected text for the reading pane

[penfold1992]

Hello all,

Is it possible for someone to show how I can get highlighted text from the "preview" or "reading" pane, the message's body?

If i was creating a mail, I could use the following to store my highlighted text:


Dim Sel As Word.Selection
Set Sel = Application.ActiveInspector.WordEditor.Windows(1).Selection

however, this doesnt work when trying to obtain the selected text inside the preview pane.

Is there a way?
Kind Regards,
