Determining the end of a sentence

[T.L.]

I am interested in writing a macro in Microsoft Word that finds the end of
a sentence and ensures there are two spaces there.

Word must already have this capability somewhere. If I tell the prefrences
in the grammer checker to ensure there are two spaces after a sentence,
then Word will highlight with a green squiggly line anyplace there is less
than two spaces, or more than two spaces.

Unfortunatly, I need to go through and manually ensure those palces are
corrected.

What would be great is if there was a character like "^e" that represented
the end of a sentence, and then replace "^e^w" with "^e " and so on.

Of course, finding the end of a sentence is not that easy. A period is not
always the end of a sentence.

Is there some sort of coding that can determing where a sentence ends,
witout getting choked up on abbreviations and other stumbling blocks?

Thanks.

That's quite doable, but if could tell exactly what it is you want, I'd
be able to send you macro cut to order. I figure you're interested in
fixing more than one sentence.
