You'll need to provide a little more information.
Based on what you posted my answer would have to be: do one, then do the other - and the speed is down to how fast you type. -- Enjoy, Tony "s_pushparaj" wrote in message ...

![]() Dear Tony, If it is more than 10 activities will you still doing the fast typing. What is your question for further information. I still groping about the phrase require to put my question. Is my question related to writing MACRO??. Let me repeat my question. I wish to do some sequence of activities without doing every single activity in some sequence. with thanks Pushparaj Tony Jollans;2597100 Wrote: You'll need to provide a little more information.

It might help if you explained *exactly* what you are trying to do. Your
original question was about two replacements. Now you are talking about 10! It is fairly simple to replace things using Word and you can replace no end of sequences using vba to apply the replacements, but we need to know more about what you are doing in order to make an appropriate suggestion. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org s_pushparaj wrote: Dear Tony, If it is more than 10 activities will you still doing the fast typing.

I wish to do some sequence of activities without doing every single
activity in some sequence. I'm sorry. I realise English may not be your first language, but I just don't have a clue what you mean. I wish to operate two search/replace actions. Is there any way to do it quickly. Do you want to do them one after the other? Or mixed up in some way? If they are mixed up what else are they mixed up with? Do you always want to search for the same texts and replace with the same texts? Do you etc., etc. Yes, you probably want a macro but unless you say what it is to do in more detail, I cannot help you any more. If you want to know how to code a macro to search and replace, then you can record yourself doing it manually and then look at, and change, the generated code. -- Enjoy, Tony "s_pushparaj" wrote in message ...

![]() Dear Tony, Thanks for taking interest in solving my problem. I did not understand your comment initially. I did some copying from a PDF material. When I paste, each line is broken into paragraphs. So, I needed to regroup broken lines into paragraph. Stage I (removing the paragraph break) : Usually I would mark the paragraph beginning with "*" (but this could be anything). Then I shall replace all the paragraph breaks with a space. Stage II (inserting a paragraph break) : I shall replace all the "*" with paragraph break. I would be doing these two search / replace activity sequentially to finish my task. My concern, however, if the number of ,similar search / replace activity, is more than 2, what would be your suggestion. Another related concern is that if I need to do those two search replace activity in more than two sessions, your suggestion certainly can help me save time. with thanks, pushparaj -- s_pushparaj |

There's already a macro for this. See

See if this helps - if so, it saves the trouble of writing your own code:
