Select Text Only

D

I want to select only the text in a document, but there are photos, tables
and page breaks in between. Can I do this automatically? The other option,
can I automatically delete all pictures from a document.

No doubt there are smarter ways using VBA. I can suggest a quick workaround:

If you literally want the text only ( i.e. you don't care about the style
etc.) Edit + Select All then Edit + Copy and then start NOTEPAD and paste:
this loses all the pictures.

Select everything and then do Edit > Paste Special > Unformatted text.
This will paste just the text into the document in the style of the
character where your cursor was positioned.
