I have a document with 1,000+ Autoshapes. I need to get the Autoshapes out of
the doc because, though they are supposed to be WHITE and therefore NOT
PRINT, they are printing BLACK!! (They are not visible on-screen.)

Is there a way to globally search/replace or search/delete Autoshapes?

They are not in the header/footer. I stupidly used Autoshapes (lines) as
layout guides in a mail merged doc that, now print-ready, is 500 pages long
and which cannot be rebuilt without considerable effort because many of the
merge fields have been converted to images, many of which, in turn, were
manually arranged.

THANK YOU!
