Find and Replace Text in embedded PowerPoint Object
Hi all,
Following problem: we habe several big word documents. They all have quite many PowerPoint slides embedded (insert - object - insert the slide). Now we need to do changes. Within the text of the worddocument that's easy: find x and replaca by y, standard procedure. However this does not affect the PowerPoint objects. Does anybody know an existing workaround? (a tool, add-in, program) I want to be able to make a "find x, replacy by y" in Word, which also replaces all "x" within the powerpoint objects to "y"s. Thank Matt |

Find and Replace Text in embedded PowerPoint Object
Not possible in Word - the Powerpoint objects do not form part of the text
of the document. Essentially they are graphics. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Turgon_ wrote: Hi all, Following problem: we habe several big word documents.
