Search Support Help

Searches performed within the support pages include technical notes, product documentation, and support programs. (Outside of support, search includes white papers, press releases, and other product information and uses a different syntax.)

Our search engine surfaces the documents most relevant to your query using no special syntax. Every word of your query matters. You can override that behavior by using the 'OR' operator.

If your search produces too many results, you can narrow down or filter the results using the following tools.

Logical operations

All terms must exist in the document
reflection vba error
reflection AND vba AND error
Logical OR operation
Return documents containing either term

Logical grouping ()
