Default Find / Replace across multiple documents

This is a follow-on question to an earlier post. Does anybody know of a way
within Word 2007 to do a Find / Replace across multiple documents?

Thanks

Default Find / Replace across multiple documents

Either of the macros in
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/BatchFR.htm will work in Word
2007, with one minor adjustment. They both determine which files to
open by searching for files with a file name of "*.doc". For Word 2007
you need to change that to either "*.docx" or "*.doc*", depending on
whether you want to include macro-enabled documents (*.docm).
