Subject: Need help with win320le word interface

I'm writing a report generator which uses word for formatting. In 
expermeniting with win32ole this code works:

require 'win32ole'


w = WIN32OLE.new('Word.Application')
w.visible=TRUE
w.Documents.Add
doc=w.ActiveDocument
doc.Content.Font.Name = 'Arial'
doc.Content.Font.Size = 10
doc.Content.Font.Bold = TRUE
selection = w.selection
selection.typetext "Hello World"


However when I add this line to get the cursor positon:

curpos = selection.Information['wdHorizontalPositionRelativeToPage']


I get this error.  does anyone know why?  thanks for the help.

C:/PROGRA~1/Ruby/work/bell05/efo~7.rb:14:in `method_missing': Information 
(WIN32OLERuntimeError)
    OLE error code:0 in <Unknown>
      <No Description>
    HRESULT error code:0x8002000e
      Invalid number of parameters.     from 
C:/PROGRA~1/Ruby/work/bell05/efo~7.rb:14

The offending command works when executed in VBWord.
