Default Can i do this with the find and replace function?

At first, thanks for your reply!

But,
if i use [0-9 ]{6.}
and 056 ^&
in the find and replace function,
then word tells that what i've entered, isn't valid.

These are some of my telephone numbers without the zone number:
56.42.32
48.35.12
17.97.84
13.65.49
45.68.32
84.31.28

Do you have an idea of what i did wrong?



Thanks,
Stan

You can search for
[0-9 ]{6,}
(note the space after the 9!)
replace with
056 ^&
with the wildcard option set.
If your local list separator character is ; change the find string to
[0-9 ]{6;}

Dear members,

I have a big list of telephone numbers in Word 2007 in this form
(xx.xx.xx), but i still have to add the zone numbers. They are all
similar (056).
Now, my question is:
How can i add the zone number 056 to all of my telephone numbers at
once? I taught i could do it with the find and replace function, but i
don't
really know how.


I hope that somoene can help me,
I would be very pleased.



Thanks,
Stan
