VBA and regular expression to search for ranges of text

Hi,
I'd be very grateful for help with the following.

I have a text file open in Word. I need an example of how to use a
regular expression to search for ranges of text that begin with
'\begin{figure}' and end with '\end{figure}' inclusive.
\begin{figure}
Any text can go here etc etc etc
\end{figure}

Once this is found, I would like to convert it to a Word Range object
and then continue the regular expression search from the next point in
the document.

Thanks in advance,

Enda

.
