MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / July 2007Find and Replace in multiple docs in one folder
How do I do a find and replace in multiple documents in the same folder? For example, if we are moving a folder from one spot on the directory to another (from g:\a f s\*.* to g:\ogs_220\*.*), how do I write a macro or something that will open each document one at a time, do a find and replace on the document, save then close and go to the next document? Thanks! http://word.mvps.org/faqs/macrosvba/BatchFR.htm  SignatureGreetings from Bavaria, Germany Helmut Weber, MVP WordVBA Win XP, Office 2003 "red.sys" & Chr$(64) & "t-online.de" or http://www.gmayor.com/batch_replace.htm Signature<>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> > http://word.mvps.org/faqs/macrosvba/BatchFR.htm Dear Robert, I've changed from Times New Roman to Gentium and have had to do alot of global replacing and font replacing. Now Find and Replace won't find anything, won't find a word standing right in front of my eyes! I've cleared all the fonts out of the formatting and unchecked all the boxes, but it still doesn't work. Shoul I reinstall?

Andrew, In the Find and Replace Dialog, make sure that the formatting is cleared for both Find What: and Replace With: input boxes. There should be a blank area directly underneath both those input boxes. If it says something there, then all the formatting is not cleared. To clear a box, click inside the box and then click the No Formatting button. > Dear Robert, > I've changed from Times New Roman to Gentium and have had to do alot of [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] >> >> Thanks!
