I have a 200+ page document I pulled from the Internet. The website
used a format of {i} {/i} to italicize sentences. I was hoping to write
up something that could automatically find {i} and italicize everything
after it until {/i} comes up.
Please let me know if a Macro could do this or if there was another
alternative. I have some experience with VBA in Access but a KISS
solution is preferred.
You don't need a macro. Edit>Replace>More User Wildcards.
Put: (\{i\})(*)(\{/i\}) in the find what field
Put: \2 in the replace with field
Press Format>Font>Italic.
Replace All
