Default Word should allow me to sync find/replace options I choose again

Even better would be to have a selection of F&R "profiles" or something akin
to AutoText entries that would be saved between Word sessions. There are
certain combinations I search for repeatedly (two spaces with one space,
^p^p wit ^p, etc.), and it would be neat to be able to just say, use F&R
combination 1, 2, 3, or whatever.

Suggestion. When I find and replace, I can go back and choose something

I've
looked for, or something I've replaced. Picking what I looked for from the
list doesn't change what I'm replacing; it would be nice to have an option
that says 'replace with the same text used last time' so that when I pick
FindText1 I get ReplaceText1 in the replace box automatically - make it a
checkbox so it's not the default behaviour. when i have a set of

Find/Replace
changes to make in several different documents, this would save time and
avoid msitakes.
