This agents gets a requested range of paragraphs from the Body item of the current document. The user specifies the numbers of the first and last paragraphs. The code uses SetBegin to mark the first paragraph in the range, and SetPositionAtEnd followed by SetEnd to mark and include the last paragraph in the range.
