Win XP, Word 2003
I exported a field in FileMaker Pro. It is a repeating field with two dates in one field. I thought I could import the field into Word and find the marker that separates one date from the next and do a Replace All and put a Tab between the two dates and then put the dates into two different fields, the way they belong. I have the field in Word and there is a small rectangle between the dates. So far nothing I have used as a Find has "found" it, except for White Space (^w), but when I do a find ^w and replace ^t, Word replaces thousands of the occurences but the demon white rectanges remain. I even tried copying and pasting the rectange into the Find box but that is not working. I have a posting on a FileMaker Pro board to see if someone can show me how to separate the dates from with FileMaker, but it seems I should be able to do it from within Word. Does anyone have a suggestion??? |
