Create vertical slash mark
I need to do a global find and replace on a document using a vertical slash
mark as the object to find and then replace. I know how to do the find and replace function; however I cannot figure out how to re-create the vertical slash mark character. Here is a line from the text so you can see what I am talking about. 1850...|...A A Sabin...|...Auburn Ward 2...|...Cayuga...|...NY...|...abt1807...|...NY Is it a particular keystroke combination? I'm feeling really frustrated that I can't figure this one out. Thanx for any help! |

It is the shift backslash character '|'. Search for ^124 with the replace
function. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Pat wrote: I need to do a global find and replace on a document using a vertical slash mark as the object to find and then replace.
