Can anyone tell me how to change text within multiple documents at the same
time? I have around 250 documents and I need to change an email address
within each document. I want to do almost a find and replace but in all of
theem at once. Can it be done?

See the article "Find & ReplaceAll on a batch of documents in the same
folder" at:

Hi Doug, Thank you that was really kind of you to let me know how to do it.
I'm sure it would help no end if it was written in English...these things are
complete gobbledegook to me. I'm extremely grateful though and will take it
away to be looked over by someone with a bit more knowledge than me.

Kind regards

Jeannie

OK, got all that. but im still confused. In looking at the code it says
"PathToUse = "C:\Test\"" Is this where i would put the directory where my
files to be included in the batch are?
