finding missing periods in long documents and in included tables, then inserting
I am reformatting a large number of long documents and have completed much of
the work, including placing some of the content in tables. I am now searching for instances of missing periods and inserting them. I can use find and replace to find the end of a word followed by a paragraph mark, then manually insert the period if it is actually a sentence (some of these instances are fragments and I do not want to insert periods following them). This works (painfully) for most text that is not within a table, but within a table I need a different solution. Within the table, if a hard return has not been entered, there is no paragraph mark. Instead, you see a small, grey box. I have not found any way to find the end of a word followed by one of these. And, as above, some of these instances are fragments and will not need periods. Can anyone help me to 1 - find and replace missing periods in text more easily? 2 - find and replace missing periods in table cells? I can not do or use any VBA programming to accomplish this. Thanks for any help! Wendy |
