Search and Replace
I have many tables with hundreds of entries with the following pattern:
1ABC234DE. I need to place spaces between 1 and A, between C and 2, and between 4 and D, in other words, the entry should be 1[space]ABC[space]234[space]DE. I intend to do a separate run for each of the 3 spaces. For the first run, in Find and Replace, in the Find What line, I enter (quotes not included) "([0-9])([A-Z])", and in the Replace With line, I enter "\1[space]\2" with Use Wildcards selected. The result I get is 1A[space]BC... .. What am I doing wrong, and is there a method of doing only one run to insert all 3 spaces? PS: If I should rather post this query in the Word Programming section, please advise. |
