Default Word 200 Macro using replace

Hi,

I have been searching the web for a solution to my problem but can't find
what I want - I hope someone here can help.

I have a .dot file that is used for creating new .doc files. I want to
create a macro that will run automatically everytime a new .doc file is
created to replace carraige returns in a particular table with spaces.

My macro goes something like this:
1. Edit Find 'Extra Description' [I know that the block of text I want
to perform the replace in is in the next field to 'Extra description']
2. Tab into the next field [where the block of text I want to perform the
replace in is]
3. Perform a Replace, replacing Paragraph Marks with a space.

My problem is this - when you do a replace, you are prompted with "Word has
finished searching the selection. XX replacements were made. Do you want to
search the remainder of the document?". When I record the macro, I click No
on this prompt and stop recording the macro. However, when I run the macro, I
still get the prompt. My clicking on No does not seem to be registered as
part of the macro.

Does anyone know a way around this?

Thanks.
