Does anyone know why I cannot find text within a paragraph? "Found" returns zero no matter what text I put in the search criteria. 
use Win32::OLE;
use Win32::OLE::Enum;
use Win32::OLE::Variant;
use Win32::OLE::Const;
use File::Find;

use vars qw($MSWord $wd $startdir);

$MSWord=Win32::OLE->new('Word.Application','Quit') or
    die "Could not load MS Word";
$wd=Win32::OLE::Const->Load($MSWord);

unless (open CONFIG, "H:\\perl\\config.txt")
{
  die "Cannot open config file: $!";
}

@config_lines = <CONFIG>;

my $doc = Win32::OLE -> GetObject("H:\\perl\\Functional Design Templat
+e r1.6 baseline.doc");

$paragraphs = $doc->Paragraphs();
$enumerate = new Win32::OLE::Enum($paragraphs);

foreach $config_line (@config_lines)
{
    $heading = (split(/===/, $config_line))[0];
    
    print $heading."\n";

    while(defined($paragraph = $enumerate->Next()))
  {
        $paragraph->{Range}->{Find}->{Text}=($heading."^p");
        $paragraph->{Range}->{Find}->Execute({FindText=>$wd,Forward=>$
+wd->{True}});
        my $output = $paragraph->{Range}->{Find}->Found;
        print $output."\n";

    }
}

print "DONE";

$doc->Close({SaveChanges=>$wd->{wdSaveChanges}});
