Dear all,

Is there a way to find and replace a whole paragraph in Word? My document
consists of many paragraphs like these:

#01 article
#02 author

What I want is to delete all occurrences of #02 in the document.

Yes, you should be able to do this

1. Display the Edit/Replace dialog box

2. Click the "More" button and activate "Wildcards"

3. Type this in the Find what field: \#02*^013
