How to replace the same string in several documents at once ?

S

Stéphane Tenèze

Hi,
Have to replace a lot of string with others in several
word documents. Is it possible to use the search/replace
function in different word document without having to go
from each document to the other and replace in each ?
(Dreamweaver does that very well for other formats, but of
course not for .doc)
I have Word 97 and 2003.

Does anyone have an idea ?

TIA,

Stéphane

There is a batch Find & Replace macro at this link that will work for you:
