Hi Tero

You could do this with a macro in VBA.

This page will give you an idea of how to loop through documents in a
folder:
Find & ReplaceAll on a batch of documents in the same folder

Alternatively, this page will show you how to get to the properties without
opening the documents at all:
Getting access to the Document Properties of a Word file

If you need specific help with writing your code, I suggest you post in one
of the VBA newsgroups such as microsoft.public.word.vba.general.

Hope this helps.
