Hi

I need to create a macro which will look through word documents. The macro
will need to look for certain words which are (upper right, upper left,
bottom right and bottom left). These words will then need to be replaced by
some kind of autoshape/symbol.
Upper right would need to become |_
Upper left would need to become _|
Bottom right would need to become | with a line on the right hand side (at
the top)
Bottom left would need to become | with a line on the left hand side (at the
top)
The autoshape/symbol also needs to be active so the typist can type in a
number of 1-8 in the box, this is a dental grid. I know how to record macros
and i am happy finding and replacing words, but this is proving quite
difficult to achieve. Is there any sort of vb script out there that will
accomplish this, what is the best way to get the end result. I am very new to
VB so my knowledge is very limited.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance
