Is anyone out there an MS Word wizard?
I have a few hundred word files with file names in numerical sequence ie. fred056.doc, fred057.doc, fred058.doc
The snag is they all contain a single error that needs to be corrected, so a "find and replace" run on each of them automatically to correct the text would be far preferrable than having to go through each individually. I just hope there's an answer - if I have to give this task to someone to hand crank they won't be a happy bunny.
I've used macros a few times but not to open a sequence of files and modify them.
MBClub Oracle, are you there ?
