Hello,

A scripted search and replace in a Word document works fine when
replacing text with other text.  But it doesn't do anything when
replacing text with an empty string.

 With WordDoc.Selection.Find
     .ClearFormatting
     .Replacement.Font.ColorIndex = wdAuto
     .Replacement.Font.Bold = False
     .Text = "test"
     .Replacement.Text = ""
     .Forward = True
     .Wrap = wdFindContinue
     .Format = True
     .MatchCase = False
     .MatchWholeWord = False
     .MatchByte = False
     .MatchWildcards = False
     .MatchSoundsLike = False
     .MatchAllWordForms = False
     .MatchFuzzy = False
     .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
 End With

Change
 .Replacement.Text = ""
to
 .Replacement.Text = " "
and it will replace "test" with a space perfectly.  But there doesn't
seem to be a way to replace "test" with nothing.  Any suggestions on
how to delete text?
