I have a list of names and email addresses, for example:

I want to delete the email addresses, leaving just the list of names.
Tried using * in Find (leaving Replace blank), but that deletes
everything. Must be missing something?


I copied all the names and email addresses into Excel. Excell puts the
names in the first column and the addresses into the second column. Then you
can copy out the first column, and paste it back into your word document,


hmm, doesn't seem to work for me - everything ends up in column A.
