atw: Re: Mistakes and editing

 

While on the topic of mistakes and editing I found this which I think most
will find incredibly useful - a quick way to find and replace multiple
spaces between words in a Word document. 
In the Find Replace dialog box, select the Wildcard checkbox, then type the
following expression in the Find what box, repalcing the word "space" with
an actual  space:
space[space]@([!space])
Type the following expression in the Replace box, also replacing the word
"space" with an actual space.
space\1
This will find and replace multiple spaces between words.

I found this on http://vbaexpress.com in the Word Macro section. I think you
have to be a member to see code examples though.
Cheers Mark
