I found what the use wildcards option is and I checked it but when I
check it and then I enter for example the "@" than word says it cannot
search for this.
I can only search for "@" without the box checked.

That's perhaps because you haven't checked the box for "Use wildcards." I
don't know what it would be in Italian, but in my English version of Word,
it is the third of five check boxes for "Search Options," following "Match
case" and "Find whole words only" and preceding "Sounds like (English)" and
"Find all word forms (English." If this is an Italian version, those last
two may well not appear.

I tried doing like you told me but the only thing I copied and pasted
were the "@" or ".com" but no the rest of the e-mail address.
How do I can do to copy/past all the e-mail addresses?
Thanks

Graham has given you a wildcard search term that will find all the email
addresses. Did you try the solution he gave you?
1. Use Ctrl+C to copy the search term below:
[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}\@[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}
2. Use Ctrl+V to paste it into the "Find what" box in the Find dialog.
3. Click More to display the rest of the dialog; check the boxes for
"Use
wildcards" and "Highlight all items found."
4. Find All.
5. Click on the title bar of the document to return the focus to the
document.
6. Press Ctrl+C to copy all the highlighted email addresses.
7. Open a new document and Paste.

How do I do without knowing the e-mail addresses? There are hundreds
of
e-mail addresses. The only thing they have in commun is the "@".
How do I do?
Thanks

The search tool will work fine for this. Use the find routine
(CTRL+F)
to
find
[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}\@[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}
with the wildcards box and the highlight all found entries box
checked.
The e-mail addresses will be highlighted.
Close the find dialog. Then copy to the clipboard.
Open a new document and paste.

Hello,
I'm in trouble because I'm trying to find the way to extract some
e-mail addresses that are in a .doc document I have that I also
have
in txt format or .htm format
The word document is several pages and he has a lot of e-mail
addresses that I cannot just copy and past with the search tool
because they are too much.
How do I do to extract all the email addresses from the word
document?
Thanks!
