If they are different you simply cannot. You can't tell a
program to replace "something" (abc) with something else if
"something" (abc) is different in each case. Well you can, but
you would have to do it (in your example) 300 times.

Hello again ... using MSWord, part of Office:Mac in an Apple
system but I think this is an MSWord question.
1. Let's say I have a line like this: "XYZ <abc> ... 123"
2. Let's say I have 300 lines like the above but each with a
different initial 3 letters, each with a different <URL> and
each with a different numeral combination. In other words, I
have 300 different lines in the "XYZ <abc> ... 123" format.
3. Now what I want to do is remove the <abc> (including the
brackets) from each of the 300 lines (remember that the <abc>
is different in each case)
4. How can this be done using what I think would be the
Find/Replace feature in MSWord? --- Harold
