replacement switches.

[Joanne]

When replacing text in Word, what does the \2 switch do?

 

[Greg Maxey]

It represents a second group when using wildcards. Here is a simple
example.

Text: Greg Maxey

Find: (<*>) (<*>).

( ) is the grouping symbol for wild card searches. In this example, "Greg
Maxey" would be found as Group 1 a space and Group 2.

Replace with /2 /1 would result in "Maxey Greg"

Thank you very much.
