Find and replace function doesn't work
After routinely using Word's find and replace command (for years!), the
command has ceased to function. It won't find anything I search for and, therefore, won't replace either. |

Find and replace function doesn't work
Have you checked to be sure you don't have any 'extras' in place, such as
formatting specifications? If not, click the More button, clear any unwanted checks &, for both Find as well as Replace, click the No Formatting button if it is active. Another possibility is that you are working in a Protected doc - in which case Find should still work, but Replace would be inactive. If neither of these applies, be sure to indicate which version of Word and exactly what "ceased to function" refers to. -- HTH |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "BobG" wrote in message ...
