So, I thought it would be great if I could run several find and replace commands in one go. I often use Find and Replace facility of MS Word. Now the question was how to do multiple find and replace operations on one click. Well, the answer has to involve a macro! Several tasks can be executed in any MS Word document by the way of macros. A macro is a set of several commands put together in a particular sequence. All you need is to write a macro and then keep running it on the target documents. For multiple find and replace, you can use a module like given below (I found it on Internet): In this macro program, the comma separated values in StrOld are the items to be replaced. Each item in this list will be replaced by the corresponding value given in StrNew string. Needless to say, both the strings should have equal number of values and obviously the sequence of the values does matter. You can write this macro by going in the Visual Basic Editor of Microsoft Word. I keep on writing articles about time saving MS-Word tips.
