You could use Edit, Replace to change code strings to bold, then change
double spaces that are not bold to single spaces, and finally changing bold
to not bold.

Hi,

I'm using Word 2002, and I need to search my documents for double spaces and
replace them with single spaces -- except in code strings, where multiple
spaces crop up frequently and must be preserved. The quickest thing to do
would be to set up a search that looks for everything except "codestyle."

Is there a simple way to do that?

Changing the "codestyle" style temporarily could also achieve the same.=20

Any formatting that's unique should do...=20
I often use "double underlined" since it's unlikely to appear, and I can =

search for "not double underlined".

Greetings,
Klaus
