Wildcard replacement of characters and style
I am trying tthis with wildcards checked in Word 2000:
Find: (&?) Style: tw4winInternal Replace: /1 Style: Plain text I find &F, &C etc without problems, but when I click Replace (or Replace all), the style tw4winInternal is not replaced by Plain Text. Am I doing something wrong? What can I do? Hans L |

Try this, instead:
Find what:&^? Style:tw4winInternal Replace with:[leave empty] Style: Plain text Use wildcards: OFF -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Hans L" wrote in message ...

Herb, thanks. However, it seems as if tw4winInternal is locked. I have
tried to highlight and change in the style window, but it does not work either. Hans L "Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote: Try this, instead: Find what:&^? Style:tw4winInternal Replace with:[leave empty] Style: Plain text Use wildcards: OFF |

Hello again, Herb.
I had to do one change to your suggested method: Find what:&^? Style:tw4winInternal Replace with:[leave empty] Style: Default Paragraph Font (instead of Plain Test) Then it worked (someone told me about this in a discussion list).
