It works brilliantly - thanks for that. Can this be used to replace tabs in
the same way i.e. ^tMichael^t to change to Michael where Michael would be the
name that changes

Is there anyway of replacing certain parts of words using a wildcard for
example how do I change all words in a list beginning with m and ending in
t
to begin with n and end with s leaving all other letters the same?
Thanks
