How can I search a wrod docuement with boolean search?
I am looking for a software program that will search a Microsoft Office Word
2003 document (Word cannot perform the search I need). I need to search and find two words within one sentence (that is, a group of words within two periods), regardless of the distance or words between the words that a being searched. In other words, the search will find these two words regardless of having one space between them or two spaces or one word between them or two words or three words between them. As long as the sought words are within a sentence. If such software program is not available, I will consider a program that finds two words within one paragraph (a group of words between two paragraph marks). Thank you Perry |

Word can do this. Check 'Use wildcards' and search for
word1[!.]@word2 That translates to: word1, followed by any one or more characters that are not periods, followed by word2. "Philos" wrote in message ...
