Find/Replace only works on the selection (text, table, whatever) by
default.anyway - it may prompt you to continue after the selction is
exhausted but you can say No.

Hi Lucas,
To suppress the prompt that Tony mentioned, set Selection.Find.Wrap =
wdFindStop.
If the subject line of the post is what you really want -- to do the
replacement in all tables in the document instead of just the one
selected table -- that's more complicated but also possible. If that's
what you want, post back and clarify what you're doing.
