Does the textbox that is generated when creating a detail view not count as a textbox? - vba

Question

My code searches for certain numbers in textboxes and replaces them. The code however does not change the number if it is in a textbox that is created from a detail view(see figure 1). Do these not count as textboxes?
Figure 1
Dim Totalsheets As Integer
Dim target_text As String
Dim FirstPage As Integer
Dim replace_text As String
Dim result As String
Dim n As Integer 'count No. of text frames changed
Dim i As Integer 'count views for the sheet
Dim x As Integer 'takes the value of the first page of the old config
Dim y As Integer 'takes the value of the total number of sheets of the old config
Dim z As Integer 'takes the value of the number that needs to be added to update the zoning
Dim a As String 'takes the value of the letter found in the zoning box
Dim b As Integer
n = 0
Set osheets = odoc.Sheets
Set osheets = osheets.Item("DRAFT") 'makes sure only sheet "DRAFT" is edited
Set oViews = osheets.Views
Totalsheets = Totalsheets1.Value 'draws value from the textbox
FirstPage = FirstPage1.Value 'draws value from the textbox
For i = 3 To oViews.Count 'scans through all views in sheet
Set oView = oViews.Item(i)
Set oTexts = oView.Texts
For Each SrcText In oTexts 'scans through all text in view
x = FirstPage
y = Totalsheets
b = x + y
Do Until x = b + 1
z = x + Totalsheets
a = "A"
Do Until a = "[" 'goes from A to Z
result = SrcText.Text
target_text = " " & x & a 'gets space in front and letter at back to ensure only zone box are updated
replace_text = " " & z & a
If InStr(result, target_text) Then
result = Replace(result, target_text, replace_text)
SrcText.Text = result
n = n + 1
End If
a = Chr(Asc(a) + 1)
Loop
x = x + 1
Loop
Next
Next

Although the detail view identifier is a DrawingText, it does not belong to the DrawingTexts-collection.
You could access the DrawingText by searching in the view.
Better would be to rename the property of the view.
EDIT:
Example for using the (slower) selection:
Set oSel = oDoc.Selection
oSel.Clear
oSel.Add oView
oSel.Search "CATDrwSearch.DrwText,sel"
for i = 1 to oSel.Count2
Set oDrwText = oSel.Item2(i).Value
'do something with the text
