Hi, "prkhan56" *wrote [Word 2010] I wish to keep these numbers including the parantheses and the hyphen sign and delete everything in the document. maybe, this could be an alternative: 1. *Ctrl+H | Find | Use wildcards 2. Find what: \([0-9]{1,}-[0-9]{1,}\) 3. Find in: Main document Now all instances are selected. You can copy them (Ctrl+C) and paste them into another document. -- Regards from Germany Lisa [MS MVP Word] Thanks...works great |
