Batch Find/Replace for *.dot Files

[Diamonds_Mine]

Word 2003 - I found the great links below that allow you to find/replace text
in multiple *.doc files, but I'd like to find/replace text in multiple
template (*.dot) files. Is there different code for template files? Thanks
in advance for you responses.

You will need to change a line of code:

Open the template and open the VB Editor (ALT+F11)

Open the UserForm module "UserInterface." In the proceure "Private Sub
Processor" change:

myFile = Dir$(PathToUse & "*.doc")

to:

myFile = Dir$(PathToUse & "*.dot")

Is there a way to utilize this macro for use to change file names as well?
