Hi Steve, In order to skip over unknown characters, you need a wildcard search (see http://www.gmayor.com/replace_using_wildcards.htm). Try the search string 001^9[!^13]@K which will find 001, the tab, and the K in the same paragraph. (Note that wildcard searches are case-sensitive.) -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
