Default I need to search and replace across multiple files

Hello,

I need to do a search and replace across multiple doc files, and be prompted
before each replace. Is there such a utility, or macro? Thank you.

Have you seen the following:
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/macrosvba/batchfrcontent.htm
This only allows the checking of the first document, then proceeds with
ReplaceALL, Is checking the first document only, OK?
Hope this helps
