....with the added bonus that you can selectively find stuff that you can't
enter in the dialog (say "Bold, Not italic" = Ctrl+B, Ctrl+I, Ctrl+I).

Regards,
Klaus

There are a number of shortcuts that work this way: Ctrl+B,
Ctrl+I, Ctrl+Shift+H, Ctrl+J/L,R,E (basically most of the shortcuts
for font and paragraph formatting), as well as Ctrl+Spacebar and
Ctrl+Q (to remove any of the previous). The font formatting ones
are three-way toggles. Ctrl+B once gives you Format: Font: Bold.
Twice gives you Format: Font: Not Bold. A third time (or Ctrl+
Spacebar) cancels the formatting.

Steve,

First stab would be EditReplaceMore. Put your cursor in the find
what field then click formatfontbold. Put your cursor in the
replace with field and enter ^&@.

This will give you boldTitlebold@ Description.

If you want you could then find @space and replace with @, leaving
you with boldTitlebold@Description

Hi,



I have paragraphs whose first couple of words are in bold and
represent titles of magazines and then immediately following a
description of the magazine in plain text. I would like to parse
these into separate fields by placing a delimiter between the bold
text and plain and then doing a Text to Columns in Excel. So, if I
used the ampersand '@' as a delimiter I would like to do the
following:


Before Find Replace

boldInterior DesignboldA magazine on the interior design
industry.



After Find Replace

boldInterior Designbold@A magazine on the interior design
industry.


It doesn't matter if the title remains bold so long as a delimiter
is placed between it and the description.



Thanks - Steve
