A 'printing' paragraph symbol cannot be pasted in the Find or Replace
fields. Does anyone know the code for a 'printing' paragraph symbol that can
work in the Find and Replace fields?

The printable pilcrow character, ¶ , is inserted by holding down the
Alt key while typing the digits 0182 on the number pad (having turned
on NumLock). You can also find one in the Insert Symbol dialog. The
Alt+0182 combination works directly in the Find/Replace dialog, or you
can place one in the text, copy it to the clipboard, and paste (using
Ctrl+V) into the dialog.

If you want the nonprinting paragraph mark, the code for that in the
Find/Replace dialog is ^p .

Thank you for the reply Jay. When using wildcards, what is the correct code
for paragraph? ^p is not working on 2002.

In the Find What box when using wildcards, use ^13 to represent the
paragraph mark. The ^p code continues to work in the Replace With box.
See http://www.gmayor.com/replace_using_wildcards.htm for other codes.
