How to extract email addresses from a word document or htm web page?
The search tool will work fine for this. Use the find routine (CTRL+F) to
find [a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}\@[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,} with the wildcards box and the highlight all found entries box checked. The e-mail addresses will be highlighted. Close the find dialog. Then copy to the clipboard. Open a new document and paste. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org wrote: Hello, I'm in trouble because I'm trying to find the way to extract some e-mail addresses that are in a .doc document I have that I also have in txt format or .htm format The word document is several pages and he has a lot of e-mail addresses that I cannot just copy and past with the search tool because they are too much.

How to extract email addresses from a word document or htm web page?
Graham has given you a wildcard search term that will find all the email
addresses. Did you try the solution he gave you? 1. Use Ctrl+C to copy the search term below: [a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}\@[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,} 2. Use Ctrl+V to paste it into the "Find what" box in the Find dialog. 3. Click More to display the rest of the dialog; check the boxes for "Use wildcards" and "Highlight all items found." 4. Find All. 5. Click on the title bar of the document to return the focus to the document. 6. Press Ctrl+C to copy all the highlighted email addresses. 7. Open a new document and Paste. -- Suzanne S.

How to extract email addresses from a word document or htm web page?
That's perhaps because you haven't checked the box for "Use wildcards." I
don't know what it would be in Italian, but in my English version of Word, it is the third of five check boxes for "Search Options," following "Match case" and "Find whole words only" and preceding "Sounds like (English)" and "Find all word forms (English." If this is an Italian version, those last two may well not appear. -- Suzanne S.

Hello! The solution [a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,}\@[a-zA-Z0-9\-_.]{1,} worked great for me in a similar situation. I am faced with another similar challenge. I have a document that has a multitude of the following:
*lastname,firstname throughout the text (with real last and first names of clients.) I need to highlight and cut all the above from the document. what is the formula to search *firstname,lastname? Thanks! Quote:

Wow, Graham your help with the find problem really saved me hours of cut and pasting. Not sure if this is where I post this. I now have the list of emails in doc. Can I merge them into a new contact form for each one?
