Find and Replace a List of items

A

Albert

Is it possible to use the find and replace tool or a
macro to find and replace an entire list of entries all
at once rather then entering each replacement one at a
time.
In other words apply multiple replacements of different
text to a document without entering each replacement.
So I can apply the whole list of changes to the current
document and save the list to apply to another document

1234 replaced with qwer
5678 replaced with kjuy
yuto replaced with 9754

ect.....

You cannot replace them all at once (if you were replacing them all with the
same replacement string it may be possible). What you could do is use the
macro recorder to record the replacements and then play back the macro in
the next document.
