How to automate search and replace

K

Karl Jones

Hi,

Is it possible to write a macro to do search and replace? I want to create a
menu item to do a repetitive task this rather have to key in the details
each time.

If so could anyone give me some pointers?

thanks

can't see how you'd save many keystrokes though.

What I am trying to do is write a script that will search for strings in the
form 'Page ???' and either remove them or allow me to change the page number
by adding or subtracting 1.

Any ideas?

Many thanks, at first glance this seems to be exactly what I need.

Thank you!
