How to create an automatic Acronym List?
So long as you acronyms are all caps and 3 or more letters long, you can use
Find function with [A-Z]{3,} in the find box. I tend to also have the Highlight all items found in: Main Document selected, then once all occurances are found, I clcik on the Word window but not in the text area so the selection is not lost, Copy. Then paste unformatted text into a new temp document the list of items found. This list can now be edited and used to create a Acronm list. I am sure someone else will have a "Carlos Fandango" macro add-in that will do this as well. Lets hope :-) Hope this helps DeanH "AMCC" wrote: Dear All, I'm trying to create a simple acronym list from my Word 2007 document, but I cannot find an "easy" way to do it.
