VBA is great - but if the options are built in more people will be able to
find and use them. I know of plenty of collections of VBA macros to do these
sets of replacements, but there's all the effort of finding, installing and
allowing them on each machine. fine for an experienced user, less so for the
novice who'd really find them helpful...

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.
